usb memory stick - Tech Support Forums

hokie64 · October 11th, 2005, 01:17 AM

I am looking for a 1gb (or more) usb stick that is as small as possible. Size is really the issue, and i would love a 2gb if possible so I could be able to do the biggest of movies. Do they come as small as some of these 128/256 ones do these days? Or all of the ones this size kind of clunky? Anyone have a particular brand they have had especially good or bad experiences with?

I agree, the Cruzer Micro.

I have two 256mb models. Great drives, but I've never had any issues with them being slow...

not slow, but there are definitely faster ones out there.

at first i was thinking for movies you might be concerned about that because there's so much data to transfer at a time, but on the other hand since its large files it's actually faster.

well.. actually.. just look at the #'s and options yourself:

Wow, I never knew they were that slow compared to others. Interesting. Thanks for the link, too.
