ACP-EP 2GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive

Nice deals for those who aren't rebate shy. 3 rebates each, although it does say to put all three in one enevelope, which is nice and not typical. I read the terms on one of the forms, it says "Offer limited to one ACP-EP MEMORY part number per
name/family/address." So, you should be able to do both of these if you want, as they are different part numbers.
 
hum, just ordered one a few days ago as a stocking stuffer - the usb snowboard will accessorize his new real snowboard. Although, this is a better deal because it ends up free rather then $6.

These types of rebates are always dicy!
 
Got mine in the mail today.

USB transfer rates are ungodly slow. I am getting around 1.5MB/s or about USB1.1 spec speeds.

Their product info states I should be getting around 20MB/s.

Oh well...
 
I jumped on this deal. Still waiting for it to leave the Warehouse.... Good deal, if the rebates come through.
:roll:

So much for "extreme performance", eh?

I assume you *are* using it in a USB2.0 port, right? 🙂 🙂 🙂

 
I jumped on the 2gb mini flash drive they had a few weeks ago and it died within a week of normal use. They are supposedly mailing me a new one though...

Yep, I was using the ports on my Dell 2405FPW monitor and the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe mobo.

Uhh....yeah. That would qualify as 2.0! 😉

Any difference if you bypassed the monitor hub and went straight into the motherboard (rear ports)? Just curious...not that I really expect much difference......
 
Cheaper than free after reabte??? If there is a better deal. please post it.
 
The new one came in today via DHL about 2 days after calling. Not bad. Hopefully this one will last me more than a week.
 
I just received mine, also ungodly slow. Plugged it into a Vista machine which refused to use it for ReadyBoost because it said it only worked at 765KBps read speed. The very same machine & USB port was willing to use a SimpleTech 1GB flash part for ReadyBoost that it rated as 3-4x as fast, so it isn't that I am using a 1.1 USB port or anything.

Avoid this part if you care about speed!
