What the Centon DataStick Pro is

The Centon DataStick Pro is a USB 2.0 flash drive with a 4GB capacity and a brushed aluminum casing. It is designed for personal use, small business and school environments where simple file transfer is needed. The drive operates on a plug-and-play basis and includes an LED indicator light plus a lanyard connector.

Deciding specification: USB 2.0 interface

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 2.0 interface, which limits transfer speed to the USB 2.0 standard. Buyers needing the higher throughput of USB 3.0 or later should choose a drive that explicitly supports those specifications.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive suits users who need a compact 4GB external storage device with a durable metal shell for everyday document storage. It does not suit buyers who want more storage capacity, faster transfer rates, hardware encryption or ruggedised waterproofing.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speeds can I expect from the USB 2.0 interface on this 4GB drive?

USB 2.0 sets the maximum theoretical bandwidth; actual read and write speeds will be lower and vary with the host controller, file sizes and drive controller.

Does the USB 2.0 connection limit the performance of this 4GB flash drive?

Yes, the USB 2.0 host port caps the maximum throughput, so the drive cannot exceed the interface bandwidth regardless of its internal memory speed.

Will the 57.15 mm by 19.05 mm aluminum body fit side-by-side with other ports on a crowded laptop?

The drive measures 57.15 mm long and 19.05 mm wide, so it may block an adjacent port depending on the laptop's port spacing.
