Oh nos.... :mad: I bought an 8 gb and a 16 gb, especially the 8 gb to be used with the HP microserver to boot and load unRAID and Plex from. So it's mostly just read after the initial setup, and no handling.. but I wouldn't want to spend time and effort setting up this yoke if it's going to break on me in a few weeks/months.

itll be fine so long as you your not keeping it in your pocket with
keys and coins (like i did) and fine for what you are using it for imo

From my point of view it was the hassle of waiting to get files on it
where filling it would take around an hour

Go with the Lexar 100MB/s drives, £8.29 for the 16GB on Amazon. Slightly more expensive but you will thank me when you have to write a large file to it, the Kingston is only 10MB/s write.

Thanks for the this. I was dubious of the quoted reading and writing speeds but I found a few (seemingly) impartial third party reviews that seem to back them up:
