How to use Kingston on macbook pro?

[davomrmac]

@ozonekiller1 I tested this on one and it worked fine.

Dave, you don't need to review USB flash drives, especially one as ordinary as this.

I bought one of these recorded things off the TV deleated them recorded again & it will only allow me 2/3 of the time recording from the time before. 1) I could get 8x30min programmes on one pen, the second time only 6 before it says disk drive full. Any one got any reasons why?

@magma9495 I am pretty sure they do.

"...break the bank." *incoming text* Hehe. I remember getting a 128GB Kingston flash drive before. Ended up being fake.
