Kingston DataTraveler Max 256GB USB-C Flash Drive with USB 3.2 Gen 2 Performance, Black (DTMAX/256GB)

I ma using this to store my photos so that can free up phone storage ( which makes it faster ), the speed is pretty good, its heating up a bit if we try to copy large items ( for me it was around 130 GB ) but apart from this its good.

Ignore what the other mo***s in the reviews are saying, this isn't a "pen drive", only the ignorant call it that. In reality, this uses the micron nand controller that ssds or nvmes use. Which is why this costs as much as it does as compared to a 512/256gb pen drive. Speed wise it is as adviced, and one can use crystal disk info to check as well. But like all ssds or nvmes, filling it up to almost its max storage capacity does hinder it's speed so be mindful of that. For me, the best use case of the 256gb variant would be as a medicat/Sergei strelac/ventoy usb recovery tool alternative, as the chance for data corruption is far low than traditional flash storage such as micro sdxc or "pen drives". For 512gb it's good enough as a portable storage option as well as the 1tb variant. Build quality wise it's decent.

Works almost like a micro sd for my pixel. Speed is very nice. Slightly on the long side but it's fine. Heats up quite a bit and very quickly.

Overall experience is good.. Far better than expected..Few things to remember1. It gets hotter while on use2. As you can see, MRP on back lable is ₹3800 for 256GB variant so make sure not to overpay..

FAST!Slightly awkward shape and sliding mechanism, but nothing that renders it unusable.Buying a type A to type C converter recommended for use with older computers.

Good, but d not go over 50%

Plastic body. Flimsy.

Works as advertised
