The Kingston Datatraveler Max is a unique USB stick that makes quite some progress in the field of small-scale storage media.
However, this USB stick has become defective due to overheating (by reading the data). The device was eventually unrecognized by both Windows and Linux based systems. This product is absolutely not recommended to store sensitive or irreplaceable data such as photos, important documents!
