### 1/5 — It doesn't have eternity

*2025-08-06*

Hello, I have a 64GB Ridata flash drive with a Lightning dongle. Unfortunately, the software has been out of date for a long time. My phone has stopped working due to the lack of a new firmware. Please, please, update the firmware because this flash drive is useless to me.

*2019-06-09, version 1.9*

爛透了都讀不到檔案

### 1/5 — 穩定性不夠，容易閃退

*2018-09-22, version 1.9*

讀取資料或存取時，容易有閃退現象，
資料容易受損無法讀取，
而且載入App時，讀檔需花較多時間，
與一般USB使用感覺有落差⋯⋯
畢竟不便宜，有點失望😞⋯⋯
