well i guess it's too good to be true. last night i tried to put a bunch of data on it, woke up this morning and the transfer had failed. then there was another surprise, the drive is now saying it has a "write protection" error. Ive tried a few different methods, and none have worked. so i guess im out some money. just good that no one got screwed on here. Sorry to inconvenience anyone.
now for sale, broken fake junk p.o.s. 2 tb thumb drive, amuse your friends. $ tree fiddy $$$.
item hasn't been sold, im just closing it.
