Not very fast - if you can afford it, pay more
I have just bought a few of these usb sticks and, while they work ok, they are very slow compared to others that I have (including another 1G stick). I do IT development and make regular backups throughout the day and use usb sticks in addition to my hard disks.
I find that the Kingston 1G is so slow I am not using it for backups as I am not prepared to wait for the copying. I have just done some tests and it is 5 times SLOWER than my EasyDisk 2G usb flash disk. I shall definitely not be using the Kingston 1G and I am going to give them away!!
If you are NOT copying lots of data, then it is propbably ok. I imagine if you are a student and want to backup a few Word docs for example, it is fine. However, if you do copy large amounts of data, then forget this usb stick and pay out a bit more - I shall stick with the EasyDisk.
I have been thinking for a while how hard it is to find out if a usb stick is fast or not. There seems to be no real means of comparing speed - only by trial and error as the specs seem to bear no relation to reality.

Great Product. . . . . Shoddy P&P
This is a great product. Transfer rate is great for me as im a student and this is a great and easy to use product and works on all operating systems i have used (including mac that is).

But what lets it down is that when you see the price of the product you think WOW £3.50!!! and then you see the P&P price which is actually more than the product a huge £4.50 bringing the total cost up to £8.00!!

Why do they preinstall U3??
What we ask of a USB storage device is pretty straight forward: high speed, reliable. Some versions of this Kingston memory key has the U3 software preinstalled, which got some of our machines stuck once the key is plugged in. We still do not understand what the U3 software does, and it is just a trial version that you have to pay after a certain period of time. Unfortunately, it is not that easy to uninstall the software. If you want to buy this Kingston memory, make sure it does not have the U3 preinstalled!
