SanDisk Cruzer Micro 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive (SDCZ6-8192-A11, Retail Package)

Fantasic little Flash drive.. cool light feature, keeps the unit lit up when plugged into a PC/laptop.. durability use, i have had it for 6 months, no issues. works fine on XP, Vista and Mac.. can't go wrong w/ sandisk..

This product does what it is supposed to with no problems. Contrary to some reviews, the included software can be easily enabled or disabled. (I chose to keep it disabled since I don't need to carry software with me.) And, I have seen this same product priced higher in every other place I checked.

Much improved compared to smaller/older versions.
I have 2, one reads 27M/s seq, the other 23M/s.
Writes are under 5M/s: Unless you turn on delayed writes, maybe write 1-5 files/sec.
The only way to add many small files quickly is zip them up first.
8k cluster may help? Very fast seek under .5ms! 8M/s random 4k reads! Only 1-3M/s 512K writes. FYI: 15M/s random 8k reads! Good for booting a LiveCD.

This is a great little drive if you just need something to carry around with all your pics and documents.

Works fine and it was 1/2 the price of the same item at Best Buy
