I have a usb hard drive, it is 80 times the size for 2.5 times the price of the one you got. But, flash drives are smaller. Don't make the same mistake as the stupid person in the customer reviews (in your link) who lost a half year's research because it stopped working.
Only use those things to transport data, not permanently store. Joseph Jam it back in, in the dark. |

I think 'high speed' USB runs 480megabits/s. COrrect me if I'm wrong though.
Joseph Double Post: from wikipedia: Transfer speed USB supports three data rates. * A Low Speed rate of 1.5 Mbit/s (183 KiB/s) that is mostly used for Human Interface Devices (HID) such as keyboards, mice and joysticks. * A Full Speed rate of 12 Mbit/s (1.4 MiB/s). Full Speed was the fastest rate before the USB 2.0 specification and many devices fall back to Full Speed. Full Speed devices divide the USB bandwidth between them in a first-come first-served basis and it is not uncommon to run out of bandwidth with several isochronous devices. All USB Hubs support Full Speed. * A Hi-Speed rate of 480 Mbit/s (57 MiB/s). There's nowhere I can't reach.

Depends, I like to carry about 4 gigs with me (dave matthews of course). By the end of this summer, I'll have over 20 gigs to carry
 Joseph This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Ya, as cheap as those gig sticks are getting, there is almost no reason to get them. Before you know it, we'll be carrying an entire computer that size. Plug it into our glasses, etc. This world is freakin' crazy!
Joseph I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
