Need a cheap USB flashdrive? Any local sites/stores?
I need a 8 or 16gb USB flashdrive for my car. Ebay has a ton of no name flashdrives but is there any local shops or websites that carry them?

I guess you can try the night market. Didn't pay attention so I can't tell you what the prices are.

today's special at ncix
16gb 20$
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...n&promoid=1043
the 8gb is listed at 18.99 i believe... which i find really bizarre since the 16gb is the same.

Guys...it's not that great of a deal because it is a USB 1.1
We're on USB 2.0 right now. USB 1.1 is previous generation use
The speed on this drive is:
5MB read
1.5MB write
You're going to be waiting a long ass time to transfer stuff to/from the USB drive

I'm just using it for mp3's so I can plug this drive in my car so speed isn't a big issue.

it's the initial part when you try to load a couple of gigs onto the drive.
you might as well do it before you sleep because it probably won't be finished by the time you wake up

Something just doesn't seem right with that. I can't see why any company would make anything USB 1.1 still.
From this chart, it shows that it has standard transfer speeds:

i believe it's a spec error.
cause the name clearly says usb 2.0
and i beleive the original datatraveler's are 2.0...so it wouldnt make sense for their generation 2 line to be 1.1...
i also just googled the drive's read/write speed and apparently it's
(write): 6.27 MB/ s
(read): 12.04 MB/ s

Deal is over. I missed out on this hot deal. I guess this is the current hot deal for 16gb USB drive:
http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/s...ight=usb+drive
Walmart 16gb Duracell drive for $29. Price match at bestbuy for $26.99.
