Transfer speeds are generally good, though they can vary depending on the type of files. The stick itself is very compact, lightweight, and feels well made. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. Review: Reliable and fast storage solution - I recently purchased the Kingston DataTraveler, and it has proven to be an excellent addition to my tech arsenal. It combines speed and security for a seamless data storage experience. The USB 3.2 Gen 1 technology ensures rapid data transfer, making it a breeze to move large files and documents. Whether I'm backing up important files or transferring multimedia content, the Kingston DataTraveler delivers impressive speed, saving me valuable time in the process. The sleek and durable metal casing not only gives it a premium look but also provides robust protection for my data. Its compact design makes it easy to carry in my pocket or attach to a keychain, ensuring that my files are always within reach when I need them. I appreciate the thought Kingston has put into security features. The drive supports password protection, giving me peace of mind knowing that my sensitive data is safeguarded against unauthorized access. This additional layer of security adds tremendous value, especially for those dealing with confidential information. The plug-and-play functionality is another standout feature. It works seamlessly with various devices, from laptops to smart TVs, without the need for any additional software installation. It's a true plug-and-play experience, which is perfect for users who want a hassle-free storage solution. It is also recommended by MSI to be used to Flash BIOS, which is originally what I purchased it for, although after realising how great of a flash drive it is, I now bring it everywhere with me. Will be interesting to find out how long it lasts before it begins to fail, being a capless design, dust and debris may get trapped within the USB port, although time will tell. In conclusion, the Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive is a reliable and high-performing storage solution. Whether you're a student, professional, or anyone in need of swift and secure data transfer, this flash drive is a fantastic choice. Kingston has once again delivered a product that combines speed, durability, and security, making it an essential tool in my daily tech toolkit. Highly recommended! ## Features - Stylish metal and capless design - Up to 200MB/s read speeds¹ - Functional loop attaches to key rings ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CRRH47NX | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,480 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 82 in USB Flash Drives | | Brand | Kingston | | Brand Name | Kingston | | Colour | Silver | | Compatible Devices | standard | | Compatible Phone Models | Windows 10, 8.1, 8, Mac OS (v.10.10.x +), Linux (v. 2.6.x +), Chrome OS | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 15,812 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 1 Years | | Flash Memory Type | USB | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00740617340761 | | Hardware Connectivity Technology | USB Type A | | Hardware Interface | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | | Hardware interface | USB 3.2 Gen 1 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 12D x 10W x 1H centimetres | | Item Weight | 4 Grams | | Manufacturer | Kingston | | Manufacturer Part Number | DTKN/512GB | | Memory Storage Capacity | 512 GB | | Memory storage capacity | 512 GB | | Model Name | DataTraveler Kyson | | Model Number | DTKN/512GB | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Features | Lightweight | | Product Warranty | 5 year manufacturer | | Read Speed | 200 Megabytes Per Second | | Read speed | 200 Megabytes Per Second | | Special feature | Lightweight | | UPC | 740617340761 | | Write Speed | 60.0 | | Write speed | 60.0 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kingston - **Hardware interface:** USB 3.2 Gen 1 - **Memory storage capacity:** 512 GB - **Special feature:** Lightweight - **Write speed:** 60.0 ## Images ![Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive 512GB - Stylish Capless Metal Case - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710kzjGtU+L.jpg) ![Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive 512GB - Stylish Capless Metal Case - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+hN1uAlDL.jpg) ![Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive 512GB - Stylish Capless Metal Case - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71smxfE24EL.jpg) ![Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive 512GB - Stylish Capless Metal Case - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JuLatpwyL.jpg) ![Kingston DataTraveler Kyson USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive 512GB - Stylish Capless Metal Case - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CKgB9p2PL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid stick *by C***M on 15 June 2026* Bought this USB stick to back up large files and keep a portable copy.

Highly recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Specifically wanted these smaller ones as I use them for creatign Boot USBS Windows/Linux *by R***D on 26 November 2023* These are good for what they are. For anyone who specifically still has a need for USB small capacity thumbsticks these are a decent option for performance/size. Obviously a portable NVME SSD will blow these out of the water in every single measureable metric, Cost per GB, Read/Wrtie/Random speeds and capacity. So if youre needs are fastest transfers of largest volumes of data and cost effectiveness, dont even think about these thumbsticks If you NEED something even smaller 8/16GB, then you are going to find that you can only get your hands on really old stuff thats super slow like 5 MB/s write and 25 MB/s read, which is painful now that we have NVMEs that are in the 7000+ MB/s and Im not even talkign about PCIE 5.0 This is a great middle ground for tasks that dont specifically fit into smaller or larger capacity category, for example Windows/Linux bootable USBs Read Speed around 230 MB/s, which is great Write Speed is very difficult to quantify and not so great. If you just do a test using crystaldiskmark like I did it shows you around 87MB/s But you never actually see that in any real world use. Copying one large file over 500MB, I am seeing it start slow then ramp up to around 25-30 MB/s. I dont knwo how Crystaldisk gets 87MB/s So even though in the grand scheme of things they are not good at all in terms of £'s per Gigabyte (I just bought a FOUR THOUSAND GB WD BLACK SN850X NVME for £200!) and they dont really have much useable storage you may or may not be able to fit ONLY ONE 4k Bluray ripped movie onto this 32GB stick, I still give this 4 stars because in its niche use these days, it's still pretty decent compared to other generic SIMILIAR format products on the market. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kingston’s DataTraveler Kyson USB Flash Drive - Kingston DataTraveler Max Type-A 256GB High Performance USB Flash Drive USB 3.2 Gen 2 Up to 1000 MB/s Sliding Cap Design DTMAXA/256GB --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/601923893-kingston-datatraveler-kyson-usb-3-2-gen-1-flash-drive](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/601923893-kingston-datatraveler-kyson-usb-3-2-gen-1-flash-drive) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-09*
