I second the Xporter.

Just ran HD tune on it and it's definitely MUCH faster than the kingston.

See pic for results.

You can check the drive for errors in HD Tune mate, I think the graph may just be showing different results writing different data sizes. However I'll look into this further with another tool as my new Corsair is showing awful results compared to my OCZ drive...

I bought this on Friday;

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/605946...tml?P36=EQBD83

Free delivery, £17.50. Can't go wrong really.

I do a lot of local file transferring. Got fed up of filling several 2GB drives.

I did scan it for errors with HD Tune but it didn't find any, your corsair results are a bit odd ??? The OCZ drive is nice and fast thought... It looks like 30MB is the max for USB 2.0
