Hello

I have had a 32gb Kingston Data traveller for a while and am happy with it so I bought a 64gb one. However when plugged in the one of this one does not flash when reading/writing and it is roughly three times slower than the 32gb for transferring files to it. It is very strange. Any ideas ?

Thanks

Those are USB2 slow Flash man writing at 5M/s , if you can Return it do it and get a USB 3 one they read 75M/s or 35m/s and at same price ..

return it if you can.

as why is so slow ? well I dunno maybe a faulty one , try format it and see.

Here is your Flash for 40$ :

Read speed : 10m/s write speed 5m/s
