Windows 10: Are these usb flash drives any good?

Hi! I'm searching for a good quality, high capacity and fast r/w usb stick. I found two of them which maybe come to count by me. Are they any good: 1. Kingston DT100G3/256GB 2. Kingston DTKN/128GB I would like to buy the 1. option. What you think about these two sticks? I need them for temporary backuo and transfer huge amount of data from pc to pc etc... Thanks for any suggestion.

USB Flash drive made bootable

Hi Nelson,

Check if there is any slide switch on the side that provides write protection. It show's a closed and open lock on each side. We suggest to follow these steps below:

• Insert the USB flash drive into the USB port.
• Click Start, type devmgmt.msc in the Search textbox and press Enter.
• Find Disk Drives and expand it.
• Find the USB flash drive you want to format, and double-click it. It opens the
  Properties dialog box.
• Click Policies tab.
• By default, the Optimize for quick removal option selected, switch it to Optimize for performance and then press
  OK.
• Now open Computer. Right click on the USB Flash Drive and select Format. The Format dialog box now appears.
• Select NTFS in the File System field.
• Press Start and wait while the process will be completed.

You can also connect the USB drive on a different computer and try formatting.

Let us know how it goes.

2. select disk #
3. clean
4. create partition primary
