Transcend 16GB JetFlash 700 USB 3.0 Flash Thumb Drive, Black

Good value and a decent memory stick.

Transcend is one of my favourite memory device manufacturers and I use their SD cards in my digital cameras and their USB memory sticks with my Macintosh computers. I have several memory sticks with a larger capacity (32GB and 64GB) but this 16GB model was purchased with a specific application in mind. I have stored on it a stripped down version of my Macintosh operating system (OS X) and equipped it with all the software tools and utilities to enable me to fix my computer should it go wrong. Disk corruption can cause minor problems but it can also prevent the computer from starting. By placing a copy of OS X on a memory stick I can optionally boot (startup) from the memory stick and use the tools and utilities upon it to get my computer working again. This often means fixing some minor disk corruption on the computer's internal hard drive. Of course, booting from a 'clone', an external hard disk drive (HDD) with an exact copy of the computers own HDD, will do the same job but the cost will be much higher. Memory stick prices have dropped faster than small HDDs. It is also possible to boot from a recovery CD, if one is provided, but this can take quite some time because there are mechanical components involved. By using a memory stick to boot the computer, startup time is cut to a fraction of that achievable from a disk (CD/DVD) and an optical disk drive, which may not be functioning due to the corruption. A USB memory stick is a perfectly acceptable 'emergency boot device' because it is truly solid-state and has no moving parts. But it is very important to choose a memory stick which has a fast 'read access' rate and the Transcend 16GB JetFlash 700 Super Speed USB 3.0 Drive meets this objective easily. The Transcend has a fast 'write access' rate too but this feature is less important in my particular application. I use Transcend memory sticks with Macintosh, Windows and Linux computers and I have never encountered a compatibility problem. They just work.

Seems to work well and is good quality.

Not much to say, works as intended and has just under 16gb of space. I have only had it for around a month now with minimal use so I don’t know what the durability is like

I've had this Transcend memory stick for well over a year now and it hasn't missed a beat. Everything I plug it into recognises it first time every time and I've not had a single piece of corrupted data or any problems with missing files whatsoever. I've had a few memory sticks over the years and this is the only one I feel comfortable with leaving important files on that I don't have another copy of. I know this is a daft and risky thing to do but unlike other memory sticks I've had, this one hasn't given me any cause for concern. There's not much more to say really, performance-wise, it's been flawless and the only slight criticism I can make about it is that I wish the USB plug cap could be pushed on to the back end of the stick to make it harder to lose when the memory stick is in use. I haven't lost mine yet but we all know that sooner or later and always when you least expect it, small plastic parts like this really seem to enjoy pulling a vanishing act and going for a little adventure under a cupboard!

Does exactly what it says on the box (packaging) works superbly on USB3.0.. excellent flow of data and even on USB 2.0 it is faster than their earlier models (300 series).. VFM? (Value for Money) .. I would say yes without hesitation. I compared the price to may 'rivals' and including Transcend's own website and I still saved .. [Amazon included free delivery and no additional import tax] 5 Star ***** Rating Excellent quality Smmoth design Neon Blue LED DATA Stream indicator Neon Blue LED Power light Replacement tops available from the manufacturer [should you lose it] Lifetime Warranty Yes.. definitely ticked all the boxes ===================================== As of 30/05/13 Drive failed.. constant blue flashing LED and unable to access drive using the Transcend Recovery software.. even by using CMD in three different Windows OS [Vista, 7 and 8 Pro] there was no reading the drive using 3.0 or 2.0 Drive will have to be sent back to Transcend for a replacement... Reliability is now a concern.

Good value in current climate of rising costs of any memory.

I work in a workshop where I spend a large amount of time fixing computers. For this I use all sorts of tools, not just physical tools like screwdrivers but also software tools. To do this I requite large, portable storage space. When I saw how cheap 16GB of USB3 connected flash memory was I had to buy this. I have only used it for my job and so far its performing very well. A friend of mine has had several USB3.0 flash drives and he said all of them after a few weeks wiped themselves of data. I've had this one for 2.5 weeks now and all the data remains intact even with daily use. I would recommend this drive if you just need something to transport data and use while your on the move. I would NOT use this as any form of backup for that I would suggest a USB3 external HDD.

Bin sehr zufrieden. Erfüllt alle Zwecke, kann ich nur weiter empfehlen. Auch überspielt er sehr schnell die Bilder, auch mit großer MB Anzahl.

⚠️ Das wichtigste für mich waren Lese und Schreibgeschwindigkeiten des Sticks. ⚠️ ⚠️ Ich habe 4 Transcend Sticks mit je 32GB bestellt und verglichen: ⚠️ ➡️ JetFlash 700 ➡️ JetFlash 730 ➡️ JetFlash 790 weiss ➡️ JetFlash 790 schwarz ✅ Platz 1: ➡️ JetFlash 790 schwarz (deutlich höhere Raten als das identische Modell in weiss!) ✅ Platz 2: ➡️ JetFlash 700 ✅ Platz 3: ➡️ JetFlash 730 ✅ Platz 4: ➡️ JetFlash 790 weiss (weniger als die Hälfte bei den Schreibraten im Vergleich zum 790 schwarz!) 👉 Am Ende war für mich folgendes klar: ✖️ Der weisse JetFlash 790 wird/wurde retourniert! ✖️ Platz 1 + 2 nehmen sich nicht viel und Schreibraten um die 30MB/s sind realisierbar. Sehr gut für den Preis!!!! ✖️ Platz 3 war akzeptabel! Schreibraten lagen zwar einiges unter 1 + 2 aber dennoch akzeptabel um die 20MB/s ✖️ Die Leseraten aller 3 Sticks waren durchweg völlig akzeptabel, um die 140MB/s ⚠️ Zur Stabilität / Robustheit ⚠️ ➡️ JetFlash 790 weiss /schwarz werden definitiv vor dem JetFlash 700 + 730 irgendwann irgendwie mit Sekundenkleber oder ähnlichem zusammengehalten werden müssen. ➡️ Alle JetFlash Modelle sind nicht besonders langlebig vom Eindruck her. Einfaches Plastik, welches wenig Stabilität / Robustheit als Eindruck vermitteln lässt. 👉 Wenn man nun bedenkt, zu welchem Preis man besonders den JetFlash 790 schwarz + JetFlash 700 bekommt, dann kann ich nur jedem zu diesen beiden Modellen raten, wenn man auf der Suche nach einem 32GB USB 3.0 3.1 Stick mit guten Schreib- und Leseraten ist und möglichst wenig Geld ausgeben möchte. Ich habe neben den Transcend auch andere Sticks getestet, wie Kingston Traveler 32 GB Sticks, Sandisk Ultra 128GB 3.0, etc. 👉 Besorgt euch die beiden Transcend, die ich auf Platz 1 + 2 gelistet habe, bevor auch ihr stundenlange Testkäufe, Benchmarks, etc. in Kauf nehmt ;) 🤩🤩🤩 Ganz klar 5 ★★★★★ Ξx⊂ΞLLΞ∩T 🤩🤩🤩 ™️ ©️ ®️ Da DeNg DeNG ®️ ©️ ™️ veo

Fait son travail : support mémoire de masse. J'ai l'impression que les débits sont faibles.

Une super clé hyper rapide. Permet d'emporter des fichiers lourds. Un produit idéal pour les grands voyageurs. Le top !
