Kingston DataTraveler 2 GB

For work we all got 512MB pen drives, however part of my work can be quite memory intensive therefore I was supplied with a 2GB pen drive. This particular one is made by Kingston and is called Data Traveler. So far 2GB has proved more than ample in terms of its capacity, however I am sure it will only be a matter of time before the applications become more memory intensive and making it necessary for a larger capacity.

Kingston have a very good reputation for memory/flash based storage and this is no exception. The drive itslef is very small, probably about the length of your thumb and 5mm deep. So it is very portable and easy to carry around with you, just make sure you dont lose it!

Along with the drive you get a small lead that you can attatch to a keyring ...  Read the complete review
