It's a Kingston Data traveler micro. At least that's cleared it up, I will have to remember this for the future. Last edited: 17 Jul 2024

I've got an 8Tb HDD in my NAS but it's really about 7.7Tb. I used to buy 720Kb floppy disks in the 90s but when I formatted them on my Amiga they were 880Kb because of the different filesystem.
