Flash Drive help
I am looking for a new flash drive 8 gigs or 16. Problem is finding the best price and best one to get. I have looking on eBay but have seen to many fakes on there. What is the best brand to get and place to buy from? I see Anitec has some Kingston $20 for 8 gigs. Good price? Any info would be great. Thanks

You should spend a bit more on a faster one if you are going to use it to transfer bigger files. I have a ocz rally 2 turbo and I love the speed of it.

Just get them locally at NCIX or Anitec, etc. They're not that expensive anyways and avoid the eBay hassle.

For what it's worth, pay a little extra for a good speedy drive. There is NOTHING like WAITING FORFUCKINGEVER for a CHEAP SLOW stick during data xfers all because you saved a few bucks.

Take it from me. I wish I hadn't gone the cheap route.

OCZ Rally is one of the fastest/cheapest drives around
their 4gb is faster than their 8gb tho ...

There are others out there like the corsair tube one, but it's kinda expensive last i checked

to be honest tho, i use the slow lacie keyring one that i have with my car keys all the time far more than the OCZ one. i only use the ocz one when i'm fixing computers
