Summary: Fast and easy ...
Review: I had the Lexar Media 256mb JumpDrive for 2 months now and it works great. This is a easy way to transfer files from one computer to another. I take alot of digital pictures and when I want to share my pictures with a friend , I would just download it on this drive and bring it over to their house and just plugit in their usb port for transfer. It saves me from wasting cd's (from burning copies) and some of my friends dont have a iomega zip drive so this is the way to go. Its small so its easy to put away. you can save mp3 and tons of other files. This JumpDrive is for a usb 2.0 but work with a 1.0. I would recommend getting this instead of a 1.0 because in the future you will have faster transfer if you use the usb 2.0.

Summary: Great product, you need it if you transfer files
Review: This is a product that you must have if you use more than one computer. I have been evangalizing USB drives (no, I don't work for any company that makes these) for the last year, and have a number of converts. Thus far, the JumpDrive Pro is the best bang for the buck going. Some warnings:
1) Don't put it on a keychain, the little plastic bit on the end breaks.
2) Easy to lose the cover, keep track of it.
3) Don't know about the speed issue, maybe formatting in NTFS is the way to go, but then you can't use it on older systems.If you need durability (like I do) for day to day use you may want to use the JumpDrive Secure. It has the ability to secure data, and is much more durable, designed to be carried around. Bad news: only USB 1.1, so it is slower.

Summary: Pretty good drive
Review: This drive is small and it's pretty fast thanks to its USB 2.0 version. It takes about 25 seconds to copy 100MB of data. This drive is also compatible with the older USB 1.0 interface.
The speed performance of this drive is comparable to the Sony Micro Vault 2.0 and the Pen Drive Plus 2.0.
Plug-n-play supports very well. I have no trouble so far.
It actually has only 245MB (257,400,832 bytes) not 256MB as advertised. But I think that how the storage manufactures measure nowsaday anyway.
The body is made of cheap plastic and easily to get broken.

Summary: This is FUNNY!
Review: From a previous review:
--Although it's supposed to be Mac compatible, a warning to Mac users: You may have some compatibility issues that are not easily resolved. Honestly, this works best with Windows. HA! Macs do not have "compatability issues" with USB devices. Someone is confused, I'm sure.

Summary: Pretty good pocket drive.
Review: I agree with the reviewers who feel it is not made to withstand very rough treatment, but it's not all that flimsy either. I find it absolutely wonderful for transporting documents from home to work. We've also used it to copy albums of digital pictures and of course to share (fully licensed) MP3s.
The USB 2.0 speed makes the latter two tasks really simple with this Lexar unit.

Summary: Lexmar JumpDrive 2.0 Pro 256MB
Review: Great product...good price...best price I found was at amazon.com. It is backwards compatible with USB 1.0 ports. On some Win 98 2nd edition machines you may have to go out to the Lexar Site and download the driver update, but Lexar makes it really easy to do so. I needed the driver update for an HP machine, so I went out to Lexar, located the driver in a matter of seconds, and downloaded the driver. The driver installed effortlessly, and voila! the machine recognized the Jumpdrive.
Works well on Windows 2K and XP and Mac's too. Now I am just waiting for the prices to come down on the 512 and 1 gig models.

Summary: Easily transfers backups between computers work to home
Review: If you use two computers in different locations not connected by a network this will come in handy. (I also use compact flash cards and readers permanently connected to the computers.) The Lexar JumpDrive with USB 2.0 can work on both all usb enabled computers. It is very portable like the compact flash, but it is free from needing a reader.

Summary: Nice replacement of floppy or zip disks
Review: I came to know this product from a colleague and immediately liked it. I have been using it and carrying it in my pocket with my keys for two months and have no problem with it. The USB 2.0 interface makes it quite fast to trasfer data. The 256 MB is more than enough for most daily uses. Now I can carry pictures, unfinished papers, and presentation slides around. And when I go to a meeting to give a presentation, I do not need to carry a laptop, just borrow one from the last speaker and plug this in. What a convenience!

Summary: Fast and easy to use
Review: I'm very pleased with the Lexar 256MB JumpDrive. I use it on my Windows 2000 SP4 system to perform daily "delta" backups in between my monthly CD backups. I use WinZip to zip up all files containing a set archive bit, copy the zip file to my flash drive, and then disconnect the flash drive. I attach the drive to the rear of my computer via a USB extension cable (not supplied). This drive, though, does lack several features found on other flash drives that may affect your purchase decision. Since I just use it for bulk storage only, it's ideal for me. Windows 2000 SP4 Pros:
. . . o USB 2.0 support.
. . . o Fast transfer speed.
. . . o Activity LED.
. . . o Built-in plastic key ring hole and plastic pocket clip.
. . . o Low price.
Cons:
. . . o No write protect switch.
. . . o No USB extension cable.
. . . o No neck strap/cord.
. . . o Supports only one filesystem partition.
. . . o No filesystem password protection. For my data security needs, I own a different flash drive that supports all the features listed in the "Cons" section including support for one to two filesystem partitions where one partition can be password protected.

Summary: Be guilty of flashing in public
Review: Just kidding. For those who need good portable memory for laptops, this compact little unit can't be beat. It bests its nearest competitor--the Sony Micro-Vault 256--in price, speed, and size. File transfers on a USB 2.0 connection are quick, faster than a ZIP drive, and the device is out-of-the-box compatible with Windows 2000 and XP; those with older OSs will probably need to download drivers. It does have some drawbacks, though: --It's not very durable. A co-worker of mine dropped his, and the plastic--yes, plastic--case cracked; he's lost everything he had on the unit. Also, as another reviewer noted, the pocket clip doesn't hold up well. I don't recommend keeping it on a keychain or belt, where a simple jostle can send it flying. Keep it in your laptop bag or bookbag, or even in your pocket. --There are mixed results when used with 1.1 ports. It's slow, (though still faster than most ZIP drives), and one may need a downloaded patch or two to get things running properly. --Although it's supposed to be Mac compatible, a warning to Mac users: You may have some compatibility issues that are not easily resolved. Honestly, this works best with Windows. Even with these problems, this is still the best portable memory on the market, and is the prime reason my ZIP drive is gathering dust.
