A little on the chunky side
Doesn't realise the full potential of USB 3.0
Huge footprint could make squeezing it in next to other USB peripherals difficult
A little on the chunky side, doesn't realise the full potential of USB 3.0
Compared to USB 2.0 flash drives, the Kingston DT Ultimate 3.0 64GB is a fast storage device -- well over twice the speed of the best that USB 2.0 has to offer, in fact. This speed is particularly welcome for the larger capacity thumb drives that are beco...
Abstract: Kingston’s first USB 3.0 flash drive, the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0, made it into my hands a few weeks ago. Some of us might have been wondering: “Are we ready for USB 3?”. For early adopters who just bought a new computer, having a USB 3.0 ready moth...

Fast! Terribly fast, Works with USB 2.0, Blue light better than the green found on 2.0 drives,
Availability of USB 3.0 ports
After using this drive for a couple of days with a USB 3.0 port, I would never want to use a flash drive with a USB 2.0 drive again. This is especially true if I want to copy large amounts of sequential data.Kingston has a fine product in the form of a DT...
Abstract: Although USB 3.0 is getting more and more popular, even the latest generation of mainboards do not always come with an appropriate controller. Chipsets are yet only expected to provide USB 3.0 support. As for the numerous PCs built out of older compone...
USB 3.0, Easily Used For Boot Drive, Excellent Read/Write Speeds, Plug and Play, Excellent Durability and
Price May Be Steep For Casual Users, Larger Than Average USB Drive Makes Keychain Carrying Difficult, HiTech Legion Gold Award
There is no question that the Kingston Data Traveler Ultimate G2 performs well. Tested read and write speeds were better than Kingston’s advertised maximums. Windows recognized the drive on the first plug in, and every one after without fault, and safe...
The 32GB Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 flash drive can be found just under $100 in Canada and in the U.S. making it an affordable first USB 3.0 flash drive solution for new adopters of the standard. The drive is much faster than USB 2.0 flash dri...
Abstract: Nevertheless, this drive's read rate is clearly surpassed by both Super Talent and OCZ’s Enyo. Users who often transfer large amounts of data will certainly be more satisfied with those products due to their higher performance. However, in our real-world tests, where we tra..
Abstract: That's not to say the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 didn't hold its own, however. Kingston's drive clearly had an edge in our write tests and it even jumped ahead of the SuperSonic during our program copy test. Unfortunately for AData, the Nobility Series N005 ranked low in seemingly every real..
Overall, very fast, Very well made and solid feeling,
Expensive, although not necessarily a bad "value" (USB 2.0 is only about $50 less),
One observation I should point out is that the drive does get rather warm when in use, almost what some would call "hot". I talked to Kingston about this and they said it´s normal to get warm; it has a very high tolerance for heat. Although the MSRP ...
