You should be aware readers, many sellers discover they have purchased a fake flash memory inventory from Asian wholesale sites. Rather than take their source to court, they chose clever ways of listing the items on eBay. Over the years some of the marketing for listings have include “Defective”, “For Parts Only”, just to name a few in descriptions for fakes. Recently a few sellers, are advertising them as “Jokes” as for fun to play a prank on someone. A Prank that includes losing data files is not funny, it is not a prank, it is malicious.
In any case, advertising a DT310 256GB Kingston DataTraveler usb flash drive on eBay, not living up to the capacity that Kingston Offers is more than unethical. Kingston Technologies immediately accepts returns should a product not live up to the advertised capacity – their reputation is at stake. Their quality for flash memory legenary. There is one little exception…. if the item is a counterfeit, not made by Kingston.
It is easy to validate Kingston DataTraveler usb flash drives. Each one has a unique serial number engraved on the usb flash drive connector tip.
