Kingston’s 1,000MB/s DataTraveler Max 256GB Flash Drive returns to Black Friday low at $30

Reg. $45+/$27

Amazon is now offering the Kingston DataTraveler Max 256GB USB-A Flash Drive for $29.99 shipped. After launching in summer 2022 at $63, it fell down into the $58 range before settling down at $45 during the holidays. We saw it briefly drop to $38 last week and it is now matching the lowest price we have tracked – Black Friday was the only other time we saw it down this low. The 512GB model is still down at $64.83 shipped, its second-best price as well. The USB-C variant is sitting at just under $38, but for those still regularly using USB-A gear, the latest DataTraveler Max is a notable option. Alongside the ability to move data at up to 1,000MB/s with support for USB 3.2 Gen 2, it sports a sliding cap design and unique ridged casing.
