The Best of the Best
Have just Purchased two of these and as advised bu a frend of mine imedatly deleated the encription program before runing the Exe found that I can transfer 6.5 Gig of Data in 4 minuits.
Would recomend them to anyone.
Feeling a bit ripped off
This devices comes with 'Carryiteasy' encryption software preloaded onto the stick (CoSosys's software).
Plugged device into USB port. First impression OK (so far so good), so in order to get going, I started the software - only to be confronted with the 30 day trial or buy option costing £15. Clicked 'later' to trial package to take a look around to see whats was on offer. - To be honest, wasnt impressed with the software and there are better 'FREE' programmes out there. Therefore, decided to format stick into NTFS and start from stratch (why not? the sticks mine!)
BIG MISTAKE - after format, the stick is now only 8mb in size, and having read some of the previous reviews here (and internest advice), decided to re-installed the 'Carryiteasy' software back onto the stick. This done, the stick is still only 8mb in size and the reinstalled 'Carryiteasy' only recognises the stick as 8mb - not happy.
If I had trialled for 30 days, would I have been committed to buy the software? (partition installed) as formatting's not an option. Surely I'm the one who should decided what is software is on my stick and not some 3rd party. (was no metion of this when i bought it)
Anyway - probably end up wasting a few more hours on it before the product either gets flushed down the toilet or returned.
does the job
Works well and does the job, transfer speeds good as well, no complaints so far
