So far so good. . This drive works great and it will work with PC or Mac, it just needs to be formatted correctly. If you need it for PC, you can leave it as NTFS. If you need it for Mac you can format it as OS X Extended Journaled. If you need it for both, format it as FAT32 (keep in mind, there is a size limitation with Fat32).

Works great . The USB stick came pre-formatted as NTFS.
If you have OS/X Snow Leopard NTFS is Read-only by default, unless you get a free app to remount the NTFS as read/write. For Lion though , it is read only. However, you can reformat it.
The best option is to reformat using Disk Utility 'Erase' option, and select exFat. The is the successor to Fat32, and works equally well on Mac and Windows (Windows users may have to install the hot fix from Microsoft)Note : exFat is currently the best option for maximum speed and portability (unless you want to plug into a Router/DVD player,TV etc, and then neither NTFS or exFat will be suitable - you should format as Fat32 in this case, as exFat and NTFS are unsupported on such devices)Great for the price.

Massive Flash Drive . When I started using flash drives, I started with a 512kb. It's amazing how I can now tote around a 64GB flash drive, more space than my laptop! I love this drive because I can download whole software programs to it and lately, I've been working on a project that involved hundreds of pictures and I had no problem copying them. It's a plus that's waterproof although not a necessity for me. The only thing I have a comment about is the cap because it is not attached to the drive in any way so there is a possibility of forgetting it somewhere. I'm thinking of running a string to attach it to the ring that I hold my flash drives.
Cons Review
Not Mac & PC compatible . I purchased two of these drives having had good luck with other DS Sport sticks. Turns out the 64GB drives do not 'work with Windows & Mac', they work with Windows OR Mac. Stick comes formatted as NTFS and isn't compatible with Mac. You can reformat it, but then it's not compatible on PC. If you need Mac & PC, this is a useless product.
