...to take away?

Advantages: it's a USB key
Disadvantages: Rather limited disk space (now)

...the next gap to close. Iomega introduced at the time their ZIP drives. All very good but both end users needed the special drive to read the ZIP disks. Not very practical and very expensive! These ZIP disks soon became a standard for backing up files you really were afraid of losing in the event your PC crashed or failed and needed 'another' Format. CD-R & RW soon became the next best thing and are still a very cheap way to store files. However, ...
...with a USB port. The Iomega 128mb USB key does just that. This great little gadget fills the gap. The Iomega128 mini drive comes in a stylish silver hard plastic and aluminium metal strap to prevent losing the lid and there is also a belt clip. Very light weight and compact in design which makes it a perfect tool. It needs to be split into two parts, one being the USB key the other the lid for protection. Use it either at work or at home. You can ...

Sony Micro Vault USB Memory Stick

Advantages: Robust, reliable and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Better if a little shorter

More robust than others I've purchased and has not had any problems despite using daily in many different PC's. No drivers have been required under XP, 2000 or WIn 98SE as it is recognised. Use it for installing software onto PC's and is quick enough for most applications. Been dropped and knocked a few times, but is still in fine shape. Is slightly longer than most I've bought, which only means it sticks out of the unit further when inserted. ...

To transfer from the disgo to another PC plug the disgo in, install drivers ...

SCAN DISK cruzer mini 128mb

Advantages: Drive is really handy and very cheap.
Disadvantages: no problems very setisfied.

Hi All....I am heaving this mini san drive since last two years...and it is good value of money...This flash drive took a dive with me into the Atlantic ocean and didn't suffer any ill effects. It never lost any data and still works fine two year later. The drive is incredibly durable, and I love not having to install anything to access the data. I can transfer files without any fuss at all. I don't think I'd buy a flash drive from any other company.... ...
...any amount of time on more than one computer. This model is compact and has endured physical rigors without a problem... It works with Windows XP, in all its versions, find the flash drive immediately.....The cap doesn't go out as other flash drive. .... The drive fit in any usb port with no problem, 2.0 and 1.1 speed....This Flash Drive is really handy and very cheap. According to my opinion ... if you don't need to take your whole life on a mini ...

Peace of mind

Advantages: Simple to use, Compact
Disadvantages: Easy to lose

I first purchased this little gem merely to transfer files between my laptop & my PC but soon it became more than that. When I'm out & about with my laptop, I regularly use it to backup files I have recently worked on. That way should I either drop my laptop or get mugged! I still have my work safely stored on the memory stick. It more than paid for itself when a database on my PC became corrupted & wouldn't open. I battled for some time to try mend ...
...the version on the memory stick. I have since invested in several other, larger memory sticks & have colour coded ones for different data. One slight worry is that the casing & lid are plastic & seem a little flimsy. I am not heavy handed but I could imagine them breaking easily. ...
