A slim and compact USB Flash Drive.

Advantages: Slim, compact, very trendy outlook and fast performance.
Disadvantages: None really.

...-sheet I always use this 1GB flash drive.It has a very good and fast data transfer rate. It?s safe, easier to carry and hassle free. I attached this flash drive to my keys for extra safety. I have lost four to five flash drive before. As it is very small it is very difficult to realize when I drop/lose it somewhere. So I think it?s better to be attached with my key chain. Sometimes, my PC does not detect this flash drive. But if I restart my computer then it detects the flash Drive easily. Other than that, I did not face any difficulties or problems using this USB flash drive. I am really happy with the performance of it. ~Compatibility~ ? It works fine with any available USB connection s (both 1.1 and 2.0). But it performs better and faster in USB 2.0 connection as it has better transfer rate 480Mbit/Sec. ? It is compatible...

Kingston USB 2GB Flash Drive

Advantages: Speed of small transfers
Disadvantages: No ReadyBoost, feels cheap

...Hi today I will be reviewing a Kingston DataTravler 2GB USB Flash Drive. I bought this a few months ago after losing my other flash drive. It cost me 9.97 from PC World but I believe you can get them cheaper in other places. Speed For the data that I transfer to it i.e. pictures and some small visual basic programs it transfers them extremely quick compared to some cheap flash drives I have used in the past. Problems So far I have had no major problems other than in windows vista it is not capable of running ReadyBoost which a free flash drive I had a while ago could. Size The overall size of the flash drive is quiet good the USB connector slides in and out with a rather flimsy press and slide switch. Feel The Kingston feels rather cheap and plastic considering the price I paid for it anyway. Over all this is not a bad...

Toshiba U3 USB Flash Drive 4Gb

Advantages: U3 support
Disadvantages: Intrusive programme everytime you plug it into a computer

...one and the U3 CD-ROM. I will talk about both of these later. --- the SPECIFICATIONS --- The U3 flash drive supports USB1.1 and hi-speed USB2.0. In my experience I have managed to achieve speeds on 11Mb/s in Windows Vista (the theoretical speed of hi-speed USB2.0 being 12Mb/s). The total storage shown when plugged in is 3.79Gb (less 60Mb for the U3). --- USABILITITY --- I have used U3 many times, but only for minor programmes like Real Player or Firefox. They generally work well and the programmes managed to work on all the computers I plugged into. These range from computers running Windows 98 (which needed drivers to run this) through to Windows XP and Windows Vista (both of which run plug and play). When the user plugs the drive into the computer - a dialog box pops up to prompt the user and allows the user to select programmes...

Durable and Super-fast USB flash drive

Advantages: Water-proof, Shock-proof, 150x data transfer rate
Disadvantages: None

...If you want to invest in a durable and super-fast USB flash drive, then you will do well to invest in a Patriot Xporter USB flash drive. I needed to upgrade from my previous USB flash drive firstly because I needed to have more memory. Most importantly however, I wanted to make sure I bought a USB flash drive that could be tough enough to withstand regular usage for many years. This is because I know friends and colleagues who have used cheaper USB flash drives and many of them suffered because of this. Cheap USB flash drives can get easily broken, bent, or they just simply pack up altogether for no good reason. I did not want to experience any of these mishaps for myself. So although it was tempting for me to get a 4GB flash drive online for a fiver, I decided to purchase the Patriot Xporter for a bit extra. Yes, it does cost a bit...

Disgo lite USB Flash drive

Advantages: good looking small and compact
Disadvantages: small memory for larger files

...for nearly two years and not once has it failed to work, a couple of times it has taken a while to load up on a new computer but I think that that is down to a slow computer. Design This flash drive looks great, it really is stunning it has the sleek oval shaped design, with the key ring which slides around it really is quite beautiful to look at, and great to fidget with if you get bored too. Ease of installation Like most computer devices now days this flash drive comes with plug and play which means that you can basically plug it in to any computer provided it has a USB 2.0 slot and start to use the product hassle free. Ease of use Like I said its plug and play so you simply plug it in then it gets even easier if you go to 'my computer' then it will appear as 'Disgo' the simply click on that drive...

Corsair Flash Voyager USB flash drive - 32 GB

Advantages: large storage and build of quality
Disadvantages: expensive for a flash drive but you get what you pay for

...As a rule I try not to carry my laptop around with me, opting instead to transport files the easy way using USB flash drives, of which I have 3 due to the size of the files I have to load and upload. My first encounter with a flash drives came with the expensive yet disappointing Lexar and over the years I've steadily moved from one to another gradually increasing the memory size as the size of files seems to spiral out of all proportion! I paid just £65.99 for the Corsair Flash Voyager USB flash drive from our IT supplier and with a 32 GB memory I had anticipated it being my final purchase of a flash drive for a considerable period of time. Opting for a USB flash drive from a company like Corsair meant that I knew I would be getting a product of quality, and the Flash Voyager oozes quality and style. Compact and durable the drive can...

A Flashing Flash Drive

Advantages: Visible data transfer signal, small and robust
Disadvantages: Easy to lose, possibly!

...particular the USB connector) there is a cap which fits snugly and stays put until you remove it making this drive ideal for slinging in a bag. There is a hole to attach a lanyard to the drive but, if I'm honest I'd like this to be a little bigger so that it would also accommodate a keyring. A minor issue though. As with all modern USB devices it's compatible with USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports which means that there are few devices out there to which you cannot connect. Just popping back to size again for a moment, there is also an upside to the simple design of the flashdrive in that there is no unnecessary width to the drive meaning that more often and not you can plug the drive into the most inaccessible USB ports and still have things attached either side. A huge bonus. The flashdrive is easy to use but is not quite "plug and play". You...

Toshiba USB 8gb Flash drive, Safe storage with no frills,

Advantages: Reliable data storage, small & light, stronger & more robust than it looks.
Disadvantages: Feels a bit flimsy, seperate cap is easy to misplace.

...read and write speed is good, there are faster drives on the market, but at this price point it performs quite well, and it is fast enough for general use, and with it's 8gb storage capacity, you can get a lot of data onto it. It does not have any fancy features, such as rubber shockproof casing etc. but it is a simple no frills USB drive that does everything that it is supposed to do without any fuss. This is a pre formatted device that is plug and play, so there is no setting up to do, or software to install, and it is ready to use straight from the packaging with no fuss, it is enhanced for windows with "ready boost" It is compatible with Windows 200, XP and Vista, it is also compatible with Mac os 10.0.2 Read speed is up to 16mb/sec. Write speed is up to 5mb/sec. It comes in a blister pack, a nightmare to open, but it is...

Corsair Flash Voyager USB flash drive - 8 GB : Cheap and Reliable

Advantages: price, speed and reliability
Disadvantages: A little large but ideal to put on your car keys etc

...I use USB flash drives frequently and regularly have to replace them, I carry them with my car keys which especially with laptops they bend. And I can finally say that I have found one that can take anything!! This gadget is encased in rubber, is water resistant and comes with a 10 year manufactures guarantee, which shows you how robust they are. It is not the smallest of pens yet I find those are the one which are most likely to fail, however it is not that large either. So if you value your data rather than squeezing it in your wallet, I would highly recommend this product. I bought one for £18 over a year ago and whilst in my lap top my dog sat beside me and knocked it which resulted in a loose connection, and the manufacture replaced it for me, new for old. They are ~ £13 from Amazon now so a bargain. Here are some...

Victorinox Swissbit USB flash drive - 1 GB

Advantages: Durable and Well built. Nice Design.
Disadvantages: Doesn't have any Swiss Army Knife accessories.

...This is a USB flash drive produced by Victorinox, makers of the Swiss Army knife. The design is basically a USB Swiss Army knife without the knife and accessories. The outer case is made of durable aluminium rather than the more traditional red plastic. The design is nice and much better than a lot of other flash drives, however I think i prefer the more iconic red plastic version. The drive is about 6 cm long, just over 1 cm wide and just under 1 cm high. The USB stick is clear plastic allowing you to see the circuit board inside, while the USB plug is gold coloured. The stick flips out of the case when in use and is held in place by a clip at the keyring end when being carried. A small green LED on the circuit board indicates activity when plugged into a USB port. The drive is USB 2.0 compatible and I have used it on both PC...
