Are Hacked Devices Dangerous

[pmorony]

But are their hidden dangers?

Thank you forum for explaining the memory #$@CLUDGE (we call it in Oz).

What troubles me now is how Hailitele tells everyone they should have known that only a fracton of their capitity can be played by the MP3 player, the rest is just Flash. whatever that means.

:roll: But my point is simple. All the happy buyers will be very unhappy when their flash drives collaps somehwhere down the track. Unscannable memory and what ever other defects. And if you format it properly, Zap. There goes your 4GB. Hmmm.

PEOPLE USE FLASHDRIVES FOR IMPORTANT USES. IMPORTANT DATA. It is terribly neglegent to say a product is solid if it is not. And then to conseal the fact.

But I just got my player today. Knowing what I know now, I dont even want to plug it in. What to do with my player??? I think I will sell it on eBay.

Only if they blow up :evil: :P

No but seriously you have a good point, but most who come here, in more cases than not, are as a result of being scammed by memory hacks from rotten sellers

All my important data that i need to bring around are either stored in a laptop computer or my trusted kingston thumbdrive. No way would i store important data into an mp3 player, not even my teclast . Doesn't look very professional in meetings when you access data from an mp3 player in my opinion.

But yeah, does make a very valid point. The worse thing could happen would be to lose a few GB of data. When they are all important documents, for example a 500-page written thesis document without a backup somewhere else, i'll go crazy..

thats why you should always backup your data
