Comments about Crucial 4GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

I am using this on a key ring, so it was a good decision to put the hole on the back. That is why I bought this one over the black one, put it on the cap and it breaks. The hole for the key ring should be larger. Sometimes it gets caught in an awkward position on the key ring and has to be readjusted.

Comments about Crucial 4GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

I needed to add Ready-Boost to Vista.

Works great. I wanted it to be as short as possible to avoid accidental damage to the USB port.

It is shorter than the previous thumb drive I used. I had hoped it would be a bit shorter than it is.

Read/Writes are fast, faster then my OCZ Rally2 4gb. Don't care for the cheap plastic casing, OCZ has this one beat in that area by a mile.

Comments about Crucial 4GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

I use the Gizmo Plus as an off-pc storage for archived photo and video files. I had years of files to copy over, and tranported hundreds of megs of files in minutes time. This drive is so fast compared to the little 64 meg 1st generation USB drive I was using before. At 4 gigs for only [$], this is a very handy tool to have in the laptop bag when doing customer software upgrades too, to temporarily store their data during upgrade, it copies very fast.The one thing I dont like though, is its very slim, and smooth feel. It feels like it wants to slip out of my hand, and that I will lose it or forget it somewhere. I had an earlier Crucial 1 gig USG and it felt a little more substantial.Though for this price, I cant complain.

Use my Gizmo between work and home PC's. Works perfect. It got washed with my work Levi's accidently but to my surprise it was unsinkable. Wife gave it to me before drying Levi's. Plugged into USB port and it worked same as when I bought it! Has not stopped working yet. Really impressed!!!

I purchased two of these and plan on a third. The first two are used for data backup. The third I plan on using at work for file transfers. What's nice about the unit is that they are quite slim and fit anywhere. I transferred over 400megs from my 1gig USB in no time.

Comments about Crucial 4GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

It is a very slim (just 1-2 mm larger than the USB plug...) shinny white pen drive with flashy blue light with a cap that holds well.

Its speed is upper average (16-20 MB/s while reading)

And you can make it bootable...

Comments about Crucial 4GB, USB Flash Drive, USB Flash Drive,:

This thing cost me about [$] and its the best investment I've made. It holds files well, looks spiffy, and have never had a problem with it. Aside from that, its reallly easy to lose! So attach something to it (Perhaps to a keychain or a necklace) so you won't lose it! It can also break rather easily if you toy with it too much, but dropping it or slightly sitting on it in your pocket is of no problem. (Walking on it or twisting while pulling it out is the "Flimsy" part I reffered to.)~Brett
