16 GB Toshiba USB 2.0 Flash Drive
This review is from : Toshiba USB 2.0 Flash Drive
reliable . I bought this one from Sam's club for $40 after a retractable verbatim flash drive stopped working for me. I feel like the Toshiba is a much more reliable product/brand and I have had it a while now without any problems. Even though the cap is probably going to get lost pretty soon I feel like the reason my other flash drive stopped working is because the moving parts of the retractable eventually stopped making connection with the usb port with wear and constant use. I really don't want to run the risk of losing the work I have saved and carrying disks back and forth from school, library, home, and work just isn't an option. It is very compact and small (read the dimensions in the description) so in order to keep up with the flash drive I put a small key ring through the body. The up side to the small thin size of my new drive is that it fits when other usb ports crowded around the one free port at the library wouldn't take my old flash drive . A lot of people say they don't need 16gb but as soon as you have it you find a use for the space. I store all my music, audio lectures from the entire quarter, textbooks and fluff reading material, pictures, and more. I am very happy with the Toshiba.

Toshiba USB 2.0 Flash Drive Reviews
Great for the price . Obviously, a 16GB flash drive for under $40 is quite inexpensive. At first it doesn't appear to have an indicator light, but a little green light DOES appear when it's in use. The cap fits neatly on the back. I haven't had any problems yet. It's a bit slow yet manageable, but for the price, who cares.

Toshiba USB 2.0 Flash Drive Opinions
Just O.K. . The current version of this drive (purchased 2/2011) comes with no software and has no activity indicator light. The blister pack is difficult to open; get out your box cutter and start hacking away, being careful not to slice yourself. Performance is adequate. All in all, very run-of-the-mill and a big letdown from a company like Toshiba.

Through the washer and dryer and it still lives! . I can't tell you how many times I have left a USB drive in the pocket of my jeans and accidently let it go for the wash and dry. Well, it just happened again. It was found scratched up but still intact. I placed it in my server and immediately ran a diagnostic on it to find to my astonishment that the device was still fully functional! I'm not telling people to go out and buy it and toss it in the washer, and it may just have been a fluke, but the fact does exist that device survived an ordeal that occurs to many people on a regular basis, without the loss or manipulation a single binary bit of data.
Cons Review
Great little flash drive but security software is poor . I have the 8GB model and files transfer to it very fast and easily. However, be aware that if you want to secure it with a password you'll have some problems. First of all, the security software is very difficult to locate on Toshiba's web sites. Secondly, once installed it does not work - at least on an XP operating system. I even downloaded a manual for installing the software and, after trying to find it, and explicitly following their instructions - no luck. I also have a Scandisk flash drive and the software is embedded within it and it works perfectly. My suggestion is if you want security protection for the flash drive get a Scandisk.
