Solid/Reliable but thick [Posted on 2008-06-12]
Drive is light like previous reviewer stated but constructed well... nothing loose or shaking.
Another plus (a huge one): It showed about 4K memory used but unused space still showed 8GB... no annoying pre-loads taking up space.
The other reviews give credit to the slide mechanism but I will give more detail... you press down so that it can slide forward and it clicks/locks into place and cannot slide back unless you press down with your finger and drag it back. Very secure and when you use it you will realize that it will not fail you.
Speed is a little slower than my old Sony MicroVault but it is adequate and for the $36 spent it is the best value out there overall in terms of size and speed. It did not have password protect so I downloaded the free program (truecrypt) despite very few negative reviews which concerned me but I have been very happy so far and it protects like my Sony and possibly has stronger encryption.
I give it 4 stars ONLY because it is thick and I had to force a very slim usb mouse connector or my very slim Sony drive next to it. The mouse connector and Sony drives do not touch when they are next to each other but when either are used with the 8GB drive it is a very tight fit.
You will not be disappointed.

Good space, decent speed [Posted on 2008-07-06]
As expected, Kingston was the way to go in terms of reliability. It works just fine on every place it gets plugged in to. It can handle my Outlook PSTs and Firefox profile with no problems. Just barely slower than my good old Kingston 1GB Data Traveler Elite on empiric speed tests, but not nearly enough to not consider it fast.

It has a nice design, but size is a little bulkier than what Kingston has got us used to in the past. It should still make it in narrow sockets, though.

8Gb Kingston [Posted on 2008-07-13]
Stores data ok but you have to keep your finger on the button when inserting into the USB slot, otherwise it pushes the metal back into the drive. Better to use with an extension cable.

works great [Posted on 2008-07-13]
works great. and at 8 GB you can put just about anything on it.
