Product Description
JetFlash T3 is a brand-new ultra-tiny USB flash drive. Measuring only 30.2mm x 12.3mm x 2.4mm (L x W x D), the T3 is incredibly compact, and only weighs a mere 2g. Unlike other miniature USB flash drives which are fragile, bend and break easily, the JetFlash T3 is designed to be extra-rugged. Using a special COB (Chip On Board) manufacturing technique that molds the memory chip and circuit board into the drive unbreakable Polycarbonate casing, the T3 is more solid and robust than even full-sized flash drives. JetFlash T3 durability and tiny footprint allows it to be carried in places where ordinary flash drives just do not fit. It can be used as a mobile phone accessory or it can be stored safely in a wallet without risk of compression damage.

I read on Gizmodo that this would work in that strange recessed proprietary USB slot on my HP Mini 1000. It fits perfectly and I am very happy to now have an additional 8GB of solid state storage at a very affordable price. Even nicer is the fact that the Mini doesn’t see this as an external device so that annoying “choose how you’d like to download” dialogue box doesn’t pop up in Windows (XP).
As far as speed is concerned, I don’t care – it fits, it stores, it is TINY and cheap so I’m happy.
Now… where is the 16 GB version????

This is basically the HP mobile drive for HP Mini 1000. It’s a perfect match if you need more capacity for the HP Mini 1000 SSD model. The HD model doesn’t come with the USB port for HP mobile drive.

I accidently washed this thing.
It’s so small, I couldn’t feel it while checking for change etc.
Then I realized it [ the usb drive ] wasn’t where I thought it was,
then I remembered, I had them in the cargo pockets of my shorts!!!!!
Which I just washed and dried….
All the data was still there and no damage to the drive at all, not bent or warped or banged up!!!!
I thought for sure the data would be gone, but it was all there!!!
This is not cheap flimsy plastic like the kingston dt is!!! I already had 2 break on me
they are only good to use in the house and don’t carry them around.
The transcend can take a pretty good licking and keep on working.
If this thing suddenly dies, I’ll post an update on it, but so far so good!
And I am a happy customer.

I purchased this to use with my HP Mini 1030nr. These netbooks come with a recessed USB port and a 2GB Transcend flash drive. While many complain about the “proprietary” flash drive, I have found it very useful to have a flash drive installed that doesn’t stick out to get snagged on things or risk being broken off. With the 8GB size drive, I was able to install Linux onto the flash drive with plenty of room to spare. The netbooks BIOS will let me book off of a USB drive directly, so I didn’t need to touch Windows on the main hard drive at all. So far, I’ve had no problems running a second OS off of the flash drive.

8 Gigabytes in a thumbnail sized drive! Even with its modest speed, the mere concept of 8 gigabytes of data storage in a space scarcely larger than a dime is a winner with me. So much so, that I’ve gone back for two more!
