DataTraveler Micro 256GB USB Flash Drive | Ultra-Small Premium Metal Design | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | Speeds up to 200MB/s | DTMC3G2/256GB,Silver

I’ve had one of these on my keys for a couple years now and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s very durable and very compact, I’ve never had it malfunction in the years I’ve been using it. It may not be the fastest drive but compactness and ruggedness is why you buy this flashdrive. I work in industrial automation and I always am making backups and transferring programs from one system to another. This keychain flashdrive has saved my bacon more times then one. I also keep several of my favorite movies on this flashdrive which you can then plug into the back of any smart tv and watch anywhere. My only recommendation to Kingston is to beef up the metal body end of the USB A- plug as it has deformed inward on me slightly a few times, nothing that couldn’t be straightened out easily with a flathead but I’d like to see it’s end look straight all the time and not have to worry about it before I plug it in. I hope Kingston will release a durable all metal keychain version of their dual end usb-A and usb-c flash drive soon as some laptops only support USB-C nowadays. But for now this works great for 95% of my needs. Can’t recommend enough!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: This is exactly what I need. I am often on the run and my other USB drives all broke. I always keep a small USB drive on my keychain and it's nice to have a small compact thumb drive that is durable and won't break. Durability: My previous USB thumb drives were all plastic shells and where I'd put them on my keychain...that part would often snap off. This thing is solid as a rock and has had no issues. I love it and it's super tiny on my keychain.

I got this to keep all of my critical data backed up to a USB that I carry everywhere. I put it on my key ring. It reads and writes quickly and without problems. It can be a touch tricky to pull out because of its small size. So far so good as far as endurance, Will update.

This is a very compact drive that I attached to my car keys with critical files to always carry with me in an emergency. I am not a "prepper," but having lived in areas that were prone to some catastrophic events like hurricanes, forest fires, and tornado I learned that a few simple preparations can make your life easier if you have to evacuate an area with little notice. Having important files with me is one of those simple things that matter if you need it.

Most certainly NOT USB 3.2 speed. Very slow. But very unobtrusive. Place a couple on your keyring and your won't even know they're there. If you want fast, cheap and metal check out the Samsung Bar Plus units. Twice the length, but small enough and they fit nicely on your keychain as well.

Great item. Fast transfer speeds for what I use it for. I like backing up on multiple items, and this makes that possible. 256GB drives make this case 3TB of storage! And I can back up a few times to be safe. I write and must ensure I have a few copies in case one gets damaged.

This works as one would expect. It now resides in the USB jack in my car with a LOT of music on it.

Very small and convenient size for a keychain, laptop, gaming console, vehicle, etc. Well made and sturdy. Doesn't get overly hot when using. Not the fastest but completely acceptable write times. Flawless playback of music, video. Recommended.

Great product! Great size for key chains!

Funciona bien, pues una memoria flash USB con 250GB, y con una velocidad de escritura y lectura aceptable. Creo recordar 40Mb de escritura que está bien, pues son 250Gb. Yo la tengo instalada con un montón de música en el MP3 del coche, y como es tan pequeña pues no molesta ni ocupa, y si tienes que sacarla pues como tiene ese diseño, pues puedes engancharla al llavero. Es muy pequeña, compacta, resistente y fiable. En una escala de cero a 10, pues sí que le doy un 9.

Bought a pair of these to replace / increase my previous plastic 64 Gb thumb drives. Nothing to complain about. Note: The picture shows 64 Gb, but the product is in fact 128 Gb.

Bra byggkvalitet, metall överallt och spricker inte som konkurenternas plast motsvarighet gör.

Une clé USB absolument géniale. Sa taille minuscule est parfaite pour ceux qui recherchent une solution de stockage compacte. Elle se glisse facilement dans n’importe quel port USB sans gêner les autres appareils branchés, et se fait quasiment oublier une fois connectée. En plus de sa petite taille, elle est vraiment robuste grâce à son boîtier en métal qui la rend résistante aux chocs et à l’usure. Avec une vitesse de 200MB/s en lecture, elle est également ultra-rapide, ce qui la rend idéale pour transférer rapidement des fichiers volumineux. En résumé, si vous avez besoin d’une clé USB à la fois compacte, solide et performante, la Kingston DataTraveler Micro est un excellent choix. Elle combine praticité, durabilité et rapidité, tout en restant discrète.
