KIOXIA TransMemory U301 USB 3.2 Gen1 Flash Drive Review

On the back, we will learn of the internal serial number:

 

 

 

A hole is provided in the chassis for attaching a lanyard:

 

 

 

The plastic cap is semi-transparent and protects the USB connector:

 

 

 

To avoid losing the cap, we can easily install it in the back of the drive while in use:
