Kanguru FlashBlu30 – 16GB USB Flash Drive – Physical Write Protection Switch - Super Fast USB 3.0

I do computer repairs and can safely put these flash drive into other people's computers that may have malware installed because of the handy read-only switch. I cannot understand why there are so few of these available but, well done to Kanguru for producint hem.

I use this for taking software (especially anti-malware) to customers. Having it set to read only lets me plug in to customers PCs without fear of picking up something nasty. It's very well made.

A+

I was looking particularly for a USB 3.0 stick with physical write protect. There's not too many such devices on the market, I've managed to found only three and Kanguru seemed the best. However, I'm quite disappointed with the device quality, especially with the wrote protection switch.Well, let's start with the fact you receive a different device that presented on the picture attached to the offer. The difference is not substantial but clear - see the picture. I may be wrong but the one in the picture looks more solid that the one actually received. The device looks and feels like a cheap marketing no-name stick. In fact it is very likely it's one of them, as I have three exactly the same devices: one was indeed given me for free at some event while two others came with F-Response software. The cap is quite solid but unfortunately easily falls off the stick. Certainly it's not the quality one would expect from a drive priced much over its competitors. It looks we pay extra for the write-protection switch and that's probably the weakest point (!!!). It's way too lose and has no protection that would keep it in place to prevent unwanted position changes (and since it stand out from the casing, it's extremely easy to do so).It does the job, but that's all. You feel you've purchased the a temporary substandard solution. It may be just the one particular piece that I've received, but the impression is definitely negative. I guess I might have received a fake device as it differs from the one offered.

However, for the price the capacity is very low. Paid a lot for the switch.The key is that it cannot be over-ridden by software.My first USB stick - which was a long time ago at 128MB (not GB) - came with a switch and was standard at the time.

Produit conforme a la description, que me convient parfaitement: solide, rapide et ideal pour stocker des données sans risquer d'attraper des virus. Vendeur très sérieux.

This is the third one I bought. I have never had a problem with them, except for losing the caps. The company sent me some caps and recommended that I attach the cap to the back while in use. Made very well and the write protection switch is great! I got it originally because I was tired of viruses being transfered onto my flash drive whenever I used the computers at work, then contaminating my home computer with them. With the write protected switch, "on", you can use your flash drive wherever you want and not be worried about viruses being transferred to it. The company's service is great also. They were very personable and always respond quickly.

Good innovation

La chiavetta fa quello che dice, l'interruttore contro le scritture/cancellazioni funziona egregiamente. Assegno solo 4 stelle per il prezzo, che a mio avviso è sproposito.
