Someone goofed . I tried to backup some of my hard drive. It turned our that one of the three "2 gig" USB flash drives was a lot smaller. I forget what's it capacity is. The other two worked as they should and they have the 2 gig capacity. I really only "need" the two that are as advertized so am satisfied. I have used the third one for a smaller backup.

Nice to get 3 Colors . The best feature was that I could buy 3 identical USBs for 3 kids with a different color for each. They are large enough to not get lost so easily. I like NOT having a cap to lose (plug retracts). The place you can hook to a lanyard is large. No lanyard included.

Cheaper at Amazon . I just bought this at Walmart, intending to gift it to a friend. Turned out I needed it to create a bootable USB drive for my ANNOYING Acer Aspire One which died because it had a defective BIOS (past the warranty period, of course) -- and the clueless Customer Service couldn't help me know how to CREATE a bootable USB drive. (Acer has since rectified this error, and it's easy now to download the proper BIOS.)

So, I had to open what was supposed to be a gift. Had to create a startup floppy disk (yes, my XP computer is THANKFULLY old enough to have one), then used Flashboot program (you can buy it online) demo to create the (FAT-formatted, not FAT32) USB bootable. Then the Verbatim USB was reformatted (deleting the special program on it), and voila, now I could copy the updated BIOS files (which aren't as Acer tells you) -- and my Acer is saved.

In short, you need little sticks like these to save your laptops or even your regular computer. What's nice about Verbatim: its version is retractable. It also has a special partitioning function so you can create a 'private' folder storing your financial files.

So I'm buying it again here at Amazon, for a friend. Saving $10 versus Walmart. Spend the difference on getting Amazon's 3' USB extension cable. I bought one, love it, am now buying 2 more -- one as a gift.

UPDATE, 2/2011. I love these things. Better than CDs. I might buy a bunch of them for my clients. Because of the password feature, it's much more secure to send these little sticks than a DVD or CD of sensitive documents.

Cons Review
DON'T PASSWORD this FLASH DRIVE . I did the "suggested" PASSWORD PROCESS for part of the capacity and left the rest NON-PASSWORDED.

Now THE ONLY part that is usable is the small amount of the DRIVE that was passworded.

It will NOT RE-FORMAT to the "original FULL compaticity" of the flash drive.

It will only FORMAT the small partition. I have changed Windows POLICIES and it still will not allow the flash drive see it's full 1.86 GB. (it only ever sees 899 MB partition).

SO the other 2 drives I have simple RE-FORMATED them FULLY to remove the START-UP hassel of the delay of entering a password.
