Summary: Don't buy if you use Vista 2008-05-02
Comment: I love this device because it offers security software and it requires a finger print to access the security software. It is great to save those many logins/passwords/personalstuff that many people cannot remember. But, when I purchased a new computer that came with vista the cruzer profile would not work. I just got off the phone with SanDisk and they told me that it is not compatible with vista and she said that she does not believe that any updates will be released any time soon to fix this problem. This is crap! Do not buy this product if you run windows vista.

Summary: More Vista woes... 2007-12-22
Comment: I should have read the current reviews of this product more closely. I understand that it can function with Vista after being set up on XP. Yeah, well, for those of us who have jumped whole heartedly onto the Vista bandwagon, I am unfortunately returning this item. I do not even have access to an XP machine to set it up. I will be glad when more companies make Vista friendly devices.

Summary: Warning- This dirve may malfunction 2007-10-14
Comment: I have been Using this device for about 7 months since i replaced my Sandisk Titanium 1gb that i had lost. I am concerned about data protection so i purchased this drive. Last week the drive mysteriously began acting up. sometimes it would not show up when i plugged it into a usb slot. other times the light would flash for about 10 seconds then disappear. I removed everything from the drive at that point. within two days the Drive had completely malfunctioned and i am currently unable to access it on any computer.
This drive is useful, just make sure you have everything backed up on your central computer.

Summary: Does work with vista and all OS'S (Kind of) 2007-09-19
Comment: Its true that you can only run the software on Windows Xp. But you really only need to use an xp machine to setup the drive/device. Just use it on a XP or compatiable os to scan your finger prints. Once scanned plug it into any device, wait for the blue light, scan a finger you registered, and presto you can now use the encrypted drive. I even tryed this on my tv and once my finger was scanned I could view a sample photo I put on the drive. At first I thought it wouldn't work with vista and the thought "WOW, if you need software to decode the hidden sector on the Cruzer profile it offers no secruity, I know SanDisk wouldn't do that." Don't worry they didn't is a hardware system that unlocks the hidden sector and decrypts it. The software is only a means to add the finger print thumbdrive. (The other software to unlock/auto-login to your pc or to store passwords is windows only.) This drive is still an awsome tool even if you need XP to setup your finger prints. As far as how hard it is to trick the drive to read a fake finger print, I haven't tested it.

Summary: Great when new then trouble later on 2007-08-25
Comment: I bought a couple of these approximately 8 months ago. I needed a way to securely store important network information etc. on a jump drive and have it available on location.
My main conern was the longevity of these units. I was worried about the two piece construction with the cable between them. My concerns have been justified. We are having problem with the cable connection on the units and must jiggle the pieces around because the connection is intermittent. The two piece contsruction with the cable between is clumsy design and I expected more from SanDisk.
