    Problem with my Kingston Data Traveller 1GB USB Stick

    Sorry - it should read USB stick in the title!

    Hi guys!

    I bought a 1GB Kingston Data Traveller a while back on a today only special.

    I had a few problems with data corruption on my disk. Sometimes entire directories would become corrupt (and directory size get displayed as multiple gigibytes):



    Some of the other times it would just be word documents that got corrupt:



    I contacted Scan a while back and got my stick RMA'd and got a new one as a replacement.

    NOW, the problem is that the data corruption is still happening.

    I mainly used the stick to transfer files between work (in a school) and home. The data corruption can happen in both places.

    Systems at work - Viglin Contenders (P4 1.6ghz, 256MB Ram...)
    Systems at home:
    Main PC (sig)
    Laptop (Dell 2650 1.6Ghz P4M, 512MB, 20GB)

    Just want to know if there's anything im doing wrong before I re-RMA.

    (Also posting in Hex help forum)

    Thanks in advance.
