Emprex products stink!
Bought two Emprex (no, I won't link them, that would be too good for them) products for our vacation. The first, a multi-format memory card reader, failed before we left, and I was able to return it.
The second, a 16 Gb thumb drive, failed after we got back, with all of our vacation pictures--over 5 Gb--on it! Fortunately, I had offloaded them to my PC, but it was a close thing. Now I have to try and return the dead stick, which (at least in theory) has all our pictures on it. I hate that
.
I won't be buying any more of their products, even if they were to pay me! I strongly suggest you don't, either, unless you're into "write only" media.
