Product Description

Storing, sharing and transporting data has never been easier than with Micro Vault USB Storage Media. Micro Vault media plugs directly into the computer's USB port and acts just like another drive. There are no cables or adaptors needed, no power cord and no driver software to install. It's compatible with both Mac OS and Windows operating systems, and even comes with software that password protects the contents of the device. Micro Vault media is perfect for sharing PowerPoint presentations, digital photos, MPEG video and MP3s, transporting files between work and home, or sharing files with friends and colleagues.

Fragile and Overpriced.......2004-05-08

I've used both the 64MB and 128MB version. The Sony Micro Vault is way overpriced in comparision to its competetion. I can get twice the storage capacity on a San Disk Mini Cruzer for the same price. The Mini Cruzer is built a lot better too. The Micro Vault has a cheap plastic case and everyone I've use has eventually pulled apart exposing the board inside. This is the only drive I've had do this. Its just crappy design, trying to make it look cool at the cost of durability. It isn't the most compatible drive either. Works fine in XP but on every 98 or ME system I've used it on driver installation has been hell, requiring multiple reboots to make the machine detect it. The Mini Cruzer has been an easy install on older OS for me.

Overall it does what its suppose to but there are far more reliable, far cheaper, far more compatible and far more durable drives out there.

Great product for the organizationally challenged.......2004-03-26

This product is SO convenient. Unlike my first USB keychain drive, it fits into every USB port I've run across without needing an extension cord or adapter.

If you are a person who needs to use several different computers in the course of a day or week, and you never seem to have the right files with you, I highly recommend this drive. I just wish I'd bought the 256MB version--maybe next payday! :)

Excellent Product!.......2004-03-18

This product is a fantastic solution for carrying data files, keeping important or sensitive files locked away in a drawer or in your briefcase, and quickly moving files between computers. It also has password protection and encryption software that works very well. It's the fastest way for me to transfer files between my Mac laptop and desktop at home (OS X) and my Sony Vaio laptop or Gateway desktop (Windows XP and 2000) at work. No drivers needed. On the Mac, it automatically shows up on your desktop just like an external drive as soon as you plug it in (and you can plug it into the USB port on your keyboard), and just drag it to the trash to eject. On Windows machines, as soon as you plug it in it is visible in Windows Explorer or My Computer, and an icon appears in your toolbar that you can click to disconnect. [The person who had trouble with his (see other review) just disconnected it while it was still saving data, which can corrupt the data. The solution is just to plug it back in, erase the file(s), and copy new ones.] It's like 3M Post-It Notes -- once you have one, you'll wonder what you did without it.

No Problems.......2004-03-12

This drive comes with Windows 98 drivers on a mini CD, and they installed with no problems. I transferred files very quickly from my machine running Windows 98 to my other running XP. XP did not require me to load any drivers since XP has them already.
