Very good 16GB flash drive for clumsy people!

Advantages: Water proof, Vista and Ubuntu compatible, good read performance
Disadvantages: A bit expensive

...Over the last few years, Corsair has been on the forefront of leading flash drive innovations, which started with their Flash Voyager series but quickly expanded into their Flash Voyager GT, Flash Survivor GT, and Flash Padlock series. What are the big advantages? First of all, there is a high durability, it is shockproof and it is even water resistant! You don't have to worry that you dropped the USB flash drive in your bath or you forget to take it out of your pants and it's in the washing machine. It even withstand if you drop it out of the window from the first floor. This is what the rubber shell has to offer and I can guarantee that's not that bad to have it. An accident happens very fast! It has a huge storage capacity. There are now already 32 GB flash drives at the market, but I think 16 GB is more than enough. If you...

Flash Drive - More Than Enough For Day To Day Work

Advantages: Small, Cheap, Easy to Use, Fast, Size - Enough for day to day work
Disadvantages: Chunky

...I originally picked up this USB flash drive for only £10 not too long ago and have been reasonably happy with what I've bought as a whole. Size (Digitally) **************** This drive is 2GB's in size making it excellent to carry a descent amount of work around with you no matter where you are or where your going. When putting the USB flash drive into the USB port it is extremely easy to use because this and most flash drives are plug and play devices which allow the device to be inserted and from that moment the user can use the device almost instantly after the system automatically installs it. Design ********* This flash drive can come in many other colours besides the colour blue as displayed in the Ciao picture. I also have a black one in the same size for example. There is a cap or top which is able to be pulled away...

Review of Integral Courier - USB flash drive - 2 GB

Store all your memories in a flash

Advantages: Easy to use, plug and play, great storage
Disadvantages: U3 technology can be a little annoying at first

...As anyone who has ever browsed through any of my previous review will know that I tend to like using flash drives, aka pen drives, as I find them a lot quicker to transfer data from PC to PC, as long as you do the usual virus check before hand. Anyway, I am the proud owner of several of these little technical miracles from many different manufacturers, such as Kingston, Bytestor and Integral. But I have to admit that one of my most favourite Flash drives has to be from the boffins who work for SanDisk, as I have many of these branded products with various memory storage sizes, from a mere 1GB to a rather eye watering 32GB? and it is the SanDisk Cruzer micro 16GB which I am talking about today ** First the technical bits? * Operating system required? Microsoft Windows XP/2000 (SP4), Vista and Mac X10.1.2 or later. * Windows ready...

Review of SanDisk Cruzer Micro - USB flash drive - 16 GB

The courier who flashes when he delivers!

Advantages: Transfer data from one computer to another very quickly.
Disadvantages: Quite small, could get lost and a small capacity.

...that effect!) Before I tell you just how easy it is to use, I will tell you the little bit I have found out about Integral. Integral is a brand of Just Rams Plc, one of the largest memory distributors in Europe. The Integral brand aims to offer high quality digital products and value for the end user. (I told you it was a little bit!) The company says that their little flash drive can do all this:- ? Replacement for your floppy disks, Zip drives and CD-R?s ? Read speed of up to 12MB/s (80x) ? Write speed of up to 3MB/s (20x) ? Drag and Drop file to and from your Courier USB Flash Drive using Windows Explorer ? Support for Windows and Mac OS ? True Plug and Play (powered by your PC) ? LED light ? Backward compatible with USB 1.1 (works at USB 1.1 speed) They are available in larger capacities too, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB...

Review of Integral Courier - USB flash drive - 128 MB

A slim and compact USB Flash Drive.

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

...with this slim USB flash drive. FINAL THOUGHT AND RECOMENDATION I am really happy with this USB flash drive. Though you can get it from only 43 p from Amazon.uk but the delivery charge is really high as 4.39 GBP. So I suggest you buy a flash drive with bigger storage capacity such as 8 GB or 16 GB. For example the 8 GB one costs you around 10-15 GBP with free delivery from Amazon.Uk. Thanks for reading my review. ©Gladiator007 ***This review is also posted on Helium and Dooyoo under same user name***...

Review of PNY Attaché Premium Capless - USB flash drive - 1 GB

The Integral 4GB Memory Stick is good value

Advantages: Fast, good value, lightweight, large storage capacity, robust and convenient.
Disadvantages: Not as slimline as other models

...The integral 4GB memory stick provides a fast and reliable way of transferring and storing data. It is ideal for transferring large files such as software, media and music between computers. The design is robust so can withstand being dropped and also very lightweight and small so it is ideal for attaching to a keyring or similar. You simply plug the device into an available usb port on your computer which will detect it automatically. There is no requirements to upload any software in order to use this item. "Integral" are one of the few manufacturers who offer a large amount of storage (up to 8GB) at a very reasonable price and I cannot see any disadvantage in their items other than it is maybe not as slimline as other similar items. Overall a very good buy....

Review of Integral Courier - USB flash drive - 4 GB

So little but so big.

Advantages: Huge storage capacity, quick read/write speed, stylish, durable.
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive but definitly worth it.

...When i first seen this product i was the proud owner of a 1GB USB pen drive which I thought was fantastic until I seen this one. 16GB is more than enough to store a few movies, some music, pictures and other documents. They don't call it a flash drive for nothing, it can read ant write at a speed of 7MB per second making it way faster than its competitors. It can be plugged into any pc, laptop or mac ensuring there is a USB port available of course. This product has been specifically designed to travel with you everywhere, it is lightweight and only measures 70mm in length. It has a super slim design to ensure that is takes up minimal room while in a USB port. It has a small cap almost like a pen top covering the USB connection which helps to minimize dust and protect the port from snapping off, which has happened with a few...

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...

Review of Kingston DataTraveler 100 - USB flash drive - 2 GB

Toshiba U3 USB Flash Drive 4Gb

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

...The Toshiba U3 flash drive provides a versatile way to store your memory. It comes in 4 sizes - 512Mb, 1Gb, 2Gb and 4Gb. It supports U3 and allows the user to install programmes on the USB drive, and then run it on the computer directly. --- the BASICS --- The Toshiba U3 flash drive is shaped as a normal USB drive - long and thin. It has a cap to cover the opening of the USB port. The cap is connected to the main part by a small string which comes with the drive. Other than that the drive has no other parts. The storage provided by the drive shows up as 3.79Gb. This is because 4Gb is actually 4,000,000 bytes. When divided by 1024 twice (into Kb and Mb) it is actually just 3.79Gb. Furthermore even more space is used up - this is illustrated by the fact that when the user plugs into the computer, it shows up as 2 drives - the removable...

Best USB drive I have ever used

Advantages: Fashionable Rubber Shell & Bright Blue LED Light
Disadvantages: The lid is not attached so could get lost

...Through my years at college and University I wish I had had this drive. Brief intro: Very Cheap, Very visible (both in colour and from the LED light - so you wont forget to take it with you) and has secure data encryption software built in to secure your files. So what is it? The Integral USB Splash Drive is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Rubberised, Lightweight memory stick which is designed to both small enough to reach confined USB ports but rugged enough to last everyday use. It comes with Metal key chain included and a store cap for the lid when it is not being used. The drive has a read speed of up to 12MB/s (80x) and a write speed of up to 3MB/s (20x) + a 2 Year Warranty. Does it work on both windows and Mac?
