Useful things: eyeing the "USB flash drive"

Gone are the days when a 64 megabyte "flash drive" was considered a luxury, but a range of companies was represented strashnyuschego kind pieces of plastic. On what to look for when selecting a USB-stick? The performance of the tests? Thank you, fallometriya level "and my flash drive surpasses gigabyte file on a third of a second faster," it shall be for the lot of techno-geeks. On the set of regular software? Is someone using this garbage? Free alternatives to benefit fully, and confused with these programs under poppy is usually zero. Durability? Questionable feature: it is not a permanent data storage and the lifespan in a couple of years (after which the device and morally obsolete) simply pays a penny price. It remains to design, good with a sense of beauty in makovodov okay.

Below, I present to you a small selection of interesting, in my opinion, "flash drives" ...

USB flash drive Transcend is well represented on the Russian market, and in the model number of a lot of interesting things. For example, the white color JetFlash T3. They look just great, the place occupied by so much that they are easy to place in your wallet, but for aesthetics will have to pay additional features including: immediately figure out what kind of party to put "the stick" in the port can not all, and the active use of the scratches on the body inevitable. However, these deficiencies are common to all members of the class.

JetFlash 130 can look and feel of classic lovers: it is much larger in size, but the probability of losing or breaking it smaller. Outwardly, nothing unusual: white body with colored insert, cap, rounded shapes. On the other hand, such a design externally looks quite solid, a total weight is lost.

And unlike Transcend products sold at almost every corner of the "stick» Dima found on sale more difficult. Most of the models offered by the company are not very interesting, but Slyd able to outdo many competitors. Made in the slider form factor it looks absolutely superb. True, and there are many trade-offs, as for obvious reasons of the shortcomings it has inherited from the ultra-small, and models and by "large" parent.

The users are not accustomed to the "little things" may have caught the drives A-data C702. Thanks to the original mechanism that hides the USB connector until it is used, not only do they look good, but the lack of caps, to lose that is known to be easy.

Similarly arranged and "stick" series PD17. They are smaller in size, have an original shape with the carabiner, allowing them easy to fasten, e.g., a keychain. Unfortunately, the white pattern, as in the case with no Digma Slyd, including We have to settle for the red, blue and golden colors.

In a series PD18 white and there was no place, however, the drive itself is not less than the design is original: it is a container, inside which is "flash card" and jam are stuck in the container during operation and not allow it to quickly lose. On the one hand it is possible to keep a small size, on the other - the amount of "stick" in the operating condition increases just at the expense of said container.

Samsung brand Pleomax offers quite nice and compact USB flash drives, which on one hand are sufficiently small to be an obstacle, on the other - big enough to combine classic design and is easy to connect. However, no technical tricks in addition to the almost imperceptible blue LED on the end is not here: the connector protects the compact cap, and he himself made of iron: unoriginal, but durable.

Of course, that's not all: interesting and oraganilnyh models are many, including I hope that this story is not the last. Do you want to offer their own versions - write in the comments!
