Lexar JumpDrive S70 16 GB USB Flash Drive LJDS70-16GASBNA - Grey

I have used the Lexar S70 64GB flashdrive for 8 months straight now, and found it to work flawlessly and reliably. I fail to understand where the negative reviews come from, perhaps some people forget to properly 'dismount' the drive before they remove the unit from their computers? Regardless, I heartily recommend this drive to anyone.

I use this as a Ubuntu boot disk. It works just fine.I has a nice solid feel to the slide used to expose the USB connector. If needed I would buy another of these for other projects. I would reccomend this to other people.

64 GBs in one thumb drive is amazing. It wasn't that long ago I had a 2 GB hardrive in my desktop PC. Lexar's technology works well and I like the red light that's hidden inside the drive but the case feels like it's going to break if you dare put it in your pocket. I really don't understand this. I have numberous thumb drives and they all have solid hard plastic or metal casings. This drive feels like it's so fragile it's going to break at any moment. The USP tip fully retracts which is a good thing but I guess only time will tell if this is well-made or not.

This is a good USB although the transfer rate is really slow.I bought it to put my mp4 video guitar lessons on so I could watch them on my Toshiba Thrive tablet and practce my guitar.The transfer rate is so slow, that the video playback is really choppy.I transfered the video to a SD card and it plays fine.The USB case is plastic and seems really fragile.BUT it is 64 GB and I have over 50 GB on it nowso for pure transportable storage, it does its job.

This works well and is reasonably fast. The reason I bought this is that it supports Lexar's Secure II software for encryption and that works pretty well.

Purchased this on April 25, 2012 and everything worked great out of the box. Great storage and speed was decent and better than most flash drives.After almost 4 weeks of moderate use, the drive stopped working all together. I initially thought it was my computer, and tried the drive on multiple machines. Once plugged in, nothing would happen... no lights at all. I will be returning this for a refund and looking for an alternate brand name USB drive.

I purchased this Lexar (64GB, white S70 Jumpdrive) back in March (about $60) exclusively for backing up my word and pdf files. I used the drive for nothing but pdfs and word documents. During the first 4 months it worked beautifully and effortlessly. No issues with backing up or transferring files (after initial file transfer, updates done on average ever day or every other day), and great speed. In addition to keeping the drive closed when not in use, I also kept it in a case logic portable flash drive case for extra protection. I should also note that I am a stickler for properly ejecting the drive. Well, it just so happened that in the midst of a significant portfolio preparation the drive literally just stopped working. It could not be read on my laptop (a MacBook Air) or anyone else's (Mac or PC) and inexplicably no less. The drive barely contained 10GBs of data. I cannot even begin to describe how vexed I was about this situation. Fortunately I was double-backing up everything and had all of the files on my computer, so very little time lost. Still, utterly perplexing. Days later, still no good, and again without any explanation. It literally just stopped working during a pretty important moment. I'm not sure if it just ran its course or what, but felt that others should know what happened to me after a few months of use. My other flash drives have been SanDisk, Kingstion, Sony, and HP (random hodgepodge, I know), and this was my first go with the Lexar. A no go for me in terms of brand, especially at the larger Gigabyte size (which echoes other concerns reviewers have expressed).

It really is faster than stink. Plug the thing into a high speed USB port, if you have one (but you don't need one), and its little red light goes all happy. There's that. There's also the fact that the thing holds more stuff than a refrigerator. Buy that little sucker. You'll be glad you did.Flash! Just discovered that the USB port in my car will not recognize the Lexar 64GB. Don't buy that little sucker. You'll be sad you did.
