Good usb stick means reliable usb stick to me. If it stopps working without any reason/damage it means its unreliable. Never happen with other (kingston) usb sticks & sd cards I've been using for last 10 years. My brother has similar experience. Coincidence? Perhaps. But I'm not taking that risk again. Thanks for posting anyway.

I bought couple of 16GB USB2.0 sticks for less than £2 on eBay and I have tested and all had perfect results. Delivery not very quick but they arrived. And buyer was protected by eBay anyway. I bet they are the same company with this one. All chips are made in China as a fact. Well I thought I might help someone planning to buy a lot quantities.

Hi, I've actually got the second of these USB 3 sticks; and actually on reflection, I'd much rather have chosen the first, fatter one, as the second one is thicker than the picture shows, but more importantly is only slightly faster than USB 2 (as other Amazon users similarly attest to); whilst the first has a non-removable cap (so you can't lose it) and seemingly according to the reviews doesn't have this speed issue.

Well it would be a good price if they didn't charge £9.99 to post it to Northern Ireland (maybe someone should point out that it's part of the UK - other retailers seem to be able to work it out and Royal Mail don't make any difference)

Cold, USB 3 will only cost you an extra 50p

I bought 64gb about 2years ago. Stopped working after 3 months. All data lost. Dont recommend.

The only person or thing you should blame data loss on, is yourself.

I bought one of these and left it in my trouser's pocket accidentally, it went through the washing machine. Let it dry out for a few days and my data was all there when I plugged it in.

Just 1 question - Are these genuine? I dont really know much about these drives but have read about fakes. Thanks

Cheers for that, worth another 80p in my opinion! I might have a look at 32gb's too, any more great suggestions? :smile:

Yes, when it's going to reduce the transfer rate by half or two thirds - not everyone wants to sit around waiting for files to be written!

Should be fine, though you might want something a bit bigger as some games can be quite large. I had a 64GB one in my Wii U for a while, which worked great, but even with that and the 32GB onboard I started running out of space after a while so I hooked up a 750GB HDD, which is probably all I will ever need on the Wii U as it is still less than a quarter full.

Word of warning... I tried using a USB stick for extra storage but everytime I switched the Wii U back on all my stuff was gone. Not saying that will happen with this USB - Just saying different USB sticks seems to behave differently on the Wii U so NEVER move your save data to external storage.

I have 2 of these bought from eBuyer the last time they were on 'offer'. I am using one of them now to copy image files to my laptop; they are not the quickest, and are very plasticky, and bendy - but does the job OK.

Good price and enough space for many people...
