Kingston Kyson Reviews

Works as expected and seems reliable

By Isaac
Rated 5 out of 5

Good metal build quality and decent speeds for the price. For me reliability is the biggest priority, and I haven't had a Kingston flash drive die on me yet.

5x slower writing

Much slower than declared. Copying large file (100GB+), after several GB speed drops to 12,6MB/s on avg. Tested on 2 different machines.
