Kingston's Data Traveler Micro Duo 3C is not going to be the fastest drive out on the market, but that is not what it is built for. It is built to provide unparalleled interoperability between many different platforms and operating systems using the USB 3.1 standard, while being backwards compatible with older USB standards. As far as performance goes, it hits all the right results and over-delivers against the rated speeds for the drive. From a functionality perspective, you will need a USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 port on your chosen device to maximize the performance potential of the drive. Available for use with Windows, Linux, Chrome, and MAC OS X devices, Kingston has the majority of the market covered with compatibility for USB 3.1/3.0 and USB 2.0 functionality. Not a bad scenario when you get down to it.
