This review is from: ADATA 16GB UV128 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive (AUV128-16G-RBY)
Pros:
- Cheap. Great for small and minimal use
- Super fast speeds
Cons:
-get corrupted way too fast. Removing it safely
-the drive becomes unreadable and you lose your data
-unreliable and never know if you just ejected from the computer and it failed
Overall Review:
- Contacted ADATA support, they gave told me to use a tool to repair my drive from being unrecognizable, it worked, but what's the point of repairing it if the drive is not unreliable and I going to lose my data each time. Then the Flash Drive failed again.
- I use the flash drives heavily and daily. Constantly boot from and re-image PCs. I purchased 7 of different sizes. I have already had 3 fail, 2-16GB and 1-32GB model. If you plan to use it just for small school projects, make sure you have both backups.
- Cannot rely on them if you plan to use the flash drive at a meeting and it doesn't work..
- Sending the Flash Drives back for replacement costs as much as the new ones since they are so cheap, they don't pay for shipping .
