However, I have three complaints on the Sony Microvault. First, it is a bit larger than I expected it to be, and is larger than other brands of similar capacity. Second, a standard metal key chain will not easily fit in the plastic loop provided for it. Third, the device is not sturdy enough to handle the everyday wear and tear on a key chain. The plastic silver outer casing on my Microvault has broken away from the interior casing, exposing the internal memory chip.
The primary appeal of this product for me was the ability to carry this around on my key chain for use wherever and whenever I needed it. Because the plastic casing is broken, I am reluctant to keep it on my key chain, thus eliminating the primary benefit of this item for me.
While I like this device in general, I am reluctant to recommend the Sony Microvault based on its durability.
Took same docs home - able to read fine on a XP-Pro System. Works just fine.
I like the look and feel. Good warranty. Came with some type of security (encription?) software on a very mini-cd that I have not installed yet but look forward to playing with shortly.
I think this has the capacity of about 45 floppies - for someone who carries work home this is really hard to beat. I suggest a short cable if your USB ports are in the back of your box like mine are. Just plug in and it shows up in explorer as a new disk. Complete cut & paste just fine. Works great.
