Hey
does anyone have sugestions on a relli good (value for money) usb?
i want something that is reliable and good quality and willing to pay a little extra for quality. this is for uni work so the usb should be relli well made etc and also have a large capacity.

any ideas would be great, cheers.

Kingston makes reliable memory cards, rams and usbs. Would go for that brand if you opt for high quality.

Yeah, I use SanDisk and LOVE IT. I'm a writer, so I save many rich text documents, and large ones at that. Then I've got all my assessments and crap, and the 4GB SanDisk i have, really helps. I bought it at a comp market for 28 bux, but I know you can get it cheaper.

Happy purchasing.:)

Well... I got my SanDisk 8GB USB from Hong Kong, cost me only $118HKD, which equates to around $21AUD. Quite a bargain, if you know where to shop of course :haha:

USB's keep getting bigger and cheaper, i can never decide when to just wait or just go out there and buy a nice 32+ GB one... because once i do they'll prob release a 1TB soon after T.T

I still have that program on my thing, do I just delete it normally, or do I have to use some random program to uninstall it?

Um, no, I think you just go to your control panel and delete it via the programs thingo. Or maybe try and put the installation CD in, and some options for uninstalling might come up.

I bought a 4GB LG USB three years ago. Costed me $50. Now I think about it, USB were wayyy overpriced a few years back. Buut, my USB hasn't failed on me yet :lol:

Yay got rid of the program! Thanks G..Nat!

lol with regards to the first USB I ever bought, it was an LG one as well, 1GB storage. Back in the day 1GB was considered huge, and I think the biggest they had was 2GB. Well I bought the 1GB for $500HKD which equates to around $92AUD... what a rip-off now that I think about it... but hey, times change lol.
