Huge capacity but could be faster!

Nowadays, its not possible to live without a USB flash drive specially in the Information Technology field. That being said, I have used flash drives to store just about anything for more than a decade.

As you can imagine, after a while of use you tend to fill up the flash drives up to the brim. So I started looking for a replacement that would give me the capacity I wanted and the reliability I needed. I searched the web and found this PNY Attaché 8GB USB 2.0 flash drive on sale at newegg.com. And as usual Newegg shipped the flash drive quickly and without any damage. I have been using this drive for over three years now and it hasn't failed me yet. Although, I recently replaced it with a much faster drive from OCZ that provides much faster data transfer rates.

Couldn't agree more with this:
"its not possible to live without a USB flash drive"

Unfortunately, I haven't had very good luck with my PNY Attache flash drives. I've had two break in the last few months. Good luck with yours!

Thanks for stopping by to read and comment. I agree with you that the drives do tend to easily expose themselves to damage when they are plugged into laptops and you have them on your lap or on the bed. I came very close to breaking mine too. But I recently bought a new OCZ flash drive that feels and works much better. Its faster and solid. Will be writing about it soon. Thanks once again.
