Advantages: The Pretty Green Light.. Disadvantages: You might loose it, its so tiny..
Okay, this may not be the most exciting product to write about but hey, people need to know about these little and I mean really little things. So I figured I needed a new memory stick for university in September, so I went on a little hunt down to my local PC World as I thought out of all places I'd find one… And yeah I did..! So here goes with the boring specification bits;
4Gb worth of memory, which holds;
3000 photos
up to 1000 MP3s or 3 movies ... ...and cap
Bright green LED light when activated and storing
Compatible with Windows 2000, XP and Mac OS 9.1.x+, OS X v10.1.2+
Don't ask me what most of that means, I know how to use the technology not how it works..!
Oh yeah and the measurements are - 7.9mmx18.95mmx52.2mm (HxWxL)
~ Opinion ~
I will admit I did buy this because it was cheap, there was nothing in the aesthetics that made me want to buy it but I am happy now I do have it.. It takes ...

Advantages: Password protect, a computer in your pocket Disadvantages: none
When you look for a flash drive you probably look for affordability, reliability and durability. The good thing about this drive is that it has all of that. This flash drive has a load of space enough for even the heaviest of flash drive users. This drive has not once messed up for me at all. I've been using it for a long time now and it still runs the same as if I bought it yesterday. The price is extremely reasonable too especially if you knowing ... ...has a pre-installed software called U3 Smart Technology. This software is great as it can make any computer just like the computer you have at home. You install all the software directly to the flash drive via the U3 Smart Technology software (download the software from their website). Now you can go on to any computer and run the programs that you are familiar with. This is especially a good tool to have when using shared computers in university ...

...and I stumbled upon the SanDisk Cruzer Micro U3. I had recalled reading about U3 devices awhile back so I was quite interested to find out what they were. I discovered that U3 devices pretend to have a CD drive inside them so when you plug in the device it will install its drivers (as with any usb stick) and then it has the ability to autorun software. The software that comes with the USB stick allows certain programs to be installed on the stick, ... ...keep your settings saved on your usb stick so that they are not lost from computer to computer.

It also includes a very nice menu that appears when you insert your ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of SanDisk Cruzer Micro U3 - USB flash drive - 4 GB
Advantages: Function appearance and compact Disadvantages: could be lost in an slight updraft!
Appearance:
Looks great with a minimalist streamlined design, the only additional bulk of any conceivable kind is the thin rubber 'skin' which protects the label attached to the bare stainless steel component case, which can be written on.This minute extra weight prevents it blowing away in a light wind, along with the rubbery cap and neck strap loop on the end, which doubles as a relaxing glowing light (mine's orange in light colour?) This light ... ...when in use.
Practicalities/function:
I would suggest tieing something to this neck strap loop in order to see it more easily and have a chance of extracting it from any kind of bag/pocket as it truly is tiny! It functions very well and is easily recognised on all compatible computers in my experience! and with 4GB of storage it certainly is a big hitting little flash drive. It should therefore avoid any need to juggle with unwanted files or create ...

Advantages: Price and Size Disadvantages: Rubber won't last
I bought this USB stick as a replacement for my old bulky USB stick with poor memory. The first problem I experienced was the rubber case came loose and would slip off with the cap when I pulled it out of my pocket. So I decided to remove the case and the cap and I think its better for it. It is smoother, smaller and slides into my pocket much more easily. The metal finish is silver in color with a hint of gold, it is smooth to touch. In terms of ...
