Amacom USB 2.0 Flash Key 8GB

Advantages: Stylish, robust, fast data transfer rate.
Disadvantages: More expensive than similar capacity keys

...I use the Amacom USB 2.0 Flash Key 8GB in my car on a permanent basis. I have a radio in the car, along with a CD Player, but I also have USB connectivity on my head unit, for which I use the Flash Key which holds most of the music I listen to. This works very well for portability reasons, as i can quickly and easily add/change the mp3 files I listen to in my car with a few simple clicks on my laptop, and with a brushed aluminium finish to the USB Flash Key itself this gives a durable finish. The Amacom USB 2.0 Flash Key 8GB obviously has a very healthy storage capacity. Working on the basis that the average mp3 file I store on it is roughly 5MB, this works out at 1,600 songs! Although I have no intention of ever having this many files on the stick, it does give me reassurance! it is also compatible with USB 1.0 and USB 2.0, which...

Excellent value 8GB USB 2.0 flash drive

The cheapest on the web is this one direct from 7dayshop.com at £7.79 inclusive of VAT and delivery. I have purchased from 7dayshop.com before for other stuff and therefore their own brand product should not be too bad. However if I order the same item from via Amazon market place or eBay for the same 7dayshop.com, the item will cost > £8.50 - some commission there. The latest price of the same item from the same shop today - £7.29 direct from 7dayshop, £7.80 from Amazon Market Place, £8.39 from eBay. Other brand (Kingston, SanDisk, ByteStor) cost around £9 or above. What is in the package: One 8GB USB drive. Installation and setup: No need to download any driver if your...

Review of 7dayshop Memory - USB flash drive - 8GB

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...
