Trekstor 16MB Thumbdrive Smart Review
Product Supplied By: Trekstor
Product Features:
As you can see they best feature of the Trekstor SMART Thumbdrive is its size.
With dimensions of 64mm in length, 18mm wide, and 8mm thick. This is one very
small storage device, in which the name speaks for itself. Also weighing only
12grams it adds to this products great functionality and portability.
Another great feature with the Thumbdrive SMART is that fact that it is
comprised of a USB Plug & Play interface. This offers great speeds when
transferring and copying data and also adds great ease of use. There are no
worries about having to install drivers (except for Win98). This makes it much
easier and quicker to copy, transfer any files you need quickly onto or
off of the drive. The device utilizes USB 1.1 which has a maximum speed of
12MBit/sec. This is one feature I would have liked to be USB 2.0, especially for
larger versions of the drive. But even at the USB 1.1 specification, the device
transfer files fast. The ThumbDrive SMART is available in capacity versions of
8MB/16MB/32MB/64MB/128MB.
A small but yet important feature of this particular Thumbdrive is the
write-protection tab located at the rear of the drive. Just like on a floppy
diskette this allows you to prevent accidental deletes of any files on the
drive. Also located to near the write protect tab is a LED indicator. Just like
a HD LED indicator this LED flashes when data is being transferred or copied off
of the drive. When the drive is put into a USB port the LED flashes slowly
indicating that the drive is ready for usage.
Now lets see how well this drive performs and conclude the review.
