Kingston DataTraveler HyperX Predator 512GB Review
Up Close
In keeping with the premium price-tag the DR HyperX comes in a tin case that is a vast improvement upon the normal blister packs that require scissors, napalm and a trip to the local hospital to open.
You can always get a hint at the quality of a product from the packaging, and the DT HyperX is kept in extremely high-density foam with all the cut-outs as precise as you could hope to find them. We have the drive itself, a key-ring that perfectly matches the case of the DT HyperX, and an extension cable in the Kingston HyperX blue, should the drive prove a little larger than the tight USB sockets on your system.Â
Considering that this is a 512MB stick, it’s only twice as thick, and approximately the same dimensions, as any other USB drive. The drive slides open and closes with a very satisfying clunk. There isn’t any scrimping upon the calibre of the metal casing at all. It’s extremely high quality.
