When you first look at the pictures of the product, it looks good and the spec is what I wanted. I was expecting the product in great quality with the HP branding, , but the actual product is very average. The fitting is extremely tight and hard to push into the USB port. I only use it to make a boot drive so I don't have to plug it in and out all the time. If you are planning to use it for frequent use ( like transferring pictures or documents ), then there are plenty other better one on the market.

The drive fits onto keychains and is small enough not to be a pain.
A wonderful product for storage on the go. The drive fits onto keychains and is small enough not to be a pain.

Form factor doesn't block other ports and the price is absolutely right for the performance. Form factor doesn't block other ports and the price is absolutely right for the performance.

This little things are very practical. You go and pay 50% for a different brand, ok this is HP, but does the job good. So far, to move This little things are very practical. You go and pay 50% for a different brand, ok this is HP, but does the job good. So far, to move

Surprisingly small little thing. I needed a flash drive that would fit in USB slots with little room above and below, so I picked this. It was perfect. Read and write speeds are great too.

is much slower then you would expect from its claimed speeds and usb 3.2 in its spec. lucky if i got over 20MB/s when copying files. Would not reccomend, there are other better drivers at this same price point. is much slower then you would expect from its claimed speeds and usb 3.2 in its spec. lucky if i got over 20MB/s when copying files.

I have bought it on an offer and it’s worth it. I have bought it on an offer and it’s worth it.
