This review is from: HP v115w 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive P-FD16GHP115-EF (Personal Computers) I'll start off by agreeing with the other reviewers here and say that this flash drive really is even smaller than I expected. The smallest I've ever seen actually. The casing is metal which makes this little guy very durable however it wont protect it from water damage. This drive can easily be attached to a keychain to keep it from getting lost which is nice. Write speeds are about average I'd say but that wasn't really a concern for me when purchasing this unit. I've copied a few movies from my PC and plugged this flash drive into my Samsung TV and they played back flawlessly. Overall I'm very pleased with this and will probably buy one or two more down the road.
Update 12-6-10: I've been using this drive every single day for about 7 months now and haven't had any problems to date. I've been using it mostly to play downloaded movies on my HDTV and it's been going through some extremely heavy use and still going strong. 21 of 23 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: HP v115w 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive P-FD16GHP115-EF (Personal Computers) HP logo is on it though, it's manufactured by PNY.
I gave 4GB version to my sister for her birthday present, and she loved it. I ordered this 16GB version last week and I got it today. Actual memory size is 15.0GB. It was super tiny, cute, and tough enough carry every day on my key chain. The only thing is the speed. My PNY 8GB full-size version shows 12mb/s to write, but this one showed only 2~3mb/s. Maybe it was mistakenly calculated, or something. Cons - too slow Pros - everything except the speed 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: HP v115w 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive P-FD16GHP115-EF (Personal Computers) Great drive, tough and very small. It's smaller than you think it will be. I am pleased, speed is pretty quick under Win 7 64... unlike many "keychain" drives that were really too big for your keys or not tough enough, this one is holding up and is not really noticeable on the key chain. I like it, no complaints. |
