what it says on the can
Flash Memory 8GB USB DRIVE

8Gb of removable ram in effect, most computers have either a USB port spare to plug one of these into or the capability to have one added.

Create a desktop short cut and you have a handy place to drag all those pictures music etc that other wise clutter.

In action it is not quick but that is expected. Plugged nto a spare USB port and you have a piece of (so far) reliable storage that can go with you when you walk away

The downsides. 8Gb is not correct. WIth these you get a usable 7.45Gb free, par for the course for these devices.

The metal shield (see photo). may physicaly protect the connector, however iwhen folded it does make the whole thing something scarily easy to lose when say stuffed into a pocket.

It needs removable top, pen stle cover with pocket clip or any way to add a cord to wear it around the neck. any or all of those would be useful. I xuppose you could loop a cord through the cover but then you effectively lose the cover.

If, like me, you leave it in the machine nearly full time, these quibbles are not really an issue.

so summarising too small when folded, reliable, 7,45Gb max usable capacity, really needs a clip or loop. pity they forgot to think about what happens when its not plugged in! It does what I need it to do so four out of five.

Perfect and easy
Who would have thought that I would be using these.
This is far better than the one I bought at my supermarket. Its small, compact and very easy to use. It fits in my purse. It arrived after just 2 days.
