We have a stack of flash drives in our house as we are forever losing them, breaking them or forgetting them. My husband uses his to store music on to play on the cd player in his company van. I use mine to store photos - particularly to transport them so I can show friends and family. My husband purchased this 8GB flash drive for £10.99 on Amazon which is more expensive than my flash drive but still a reasonable price. He wanted 8GB as he likes dance music and those types of songs tend to be really long, ie. big files. The flash drive is relatively small although bigger than most, and blue in colour. There are no other colour options. I have used ...  Read the complete review

As I don't have my own printer, I am a regular user of the library computers in order to print out essays etc, which is why I find memory sticks (flash drives) so handy. This is the most recent flash drive I purchased, and it was £6.99 from Play with free delivery. According to Play, the RRP of this particular flash drive is RRP £10.49 so I saved over £3 which is a nice little bonus. The flash drive is quite average looking and is blue in colour. I was a little dissapointed that there wasn't a variety of colours to choose from but seeing as it's only a memory stick it doesn't really matter! The flash drive is around the same size as my other memory sticks, ...  Read the complete review

It is pretty hard to go wrong with this 8gb flash drive fromPlay.com as for a very low price of £6.99 you do get an excellent product. I did have a problem with the first one that I got as it would not work on my laptop, the message came up that there was no driver that it was compatable with and all the things I tried to resolve the matter did not work however Play replaced it after a few days through their normal returns policy and the new one is working just fine with no problems so I guess the first one was certainly faulty. This is what I guess you would call a basic flash drive based on the fact that it is not exactly robustly made. It is a blue plastic ...  Read the complete review

I work in an office which is 'paperless', so I use a variety of different smaller capacity flash drives to back up my work (I don't trust it all to one drive), and purchased the 8GB flash drive from Play.com last year for around £7.50. The service was excellent - I ordered early one morning and had the drive in the post the very next morning, so top marks for Play.com's service! The flash drive itself is only available in one colour, a slightly transparent royal blue, and bears the Play.com logo and the flash drive size to the top. It's not going to win any design awards, but it looks OK. Mine doesn't have a keyring attachment which I would have liked, but ...  Read the complete review

After a recent washing-machine related accident, I was in the market for a new memory stick. Choosing one these days is not as straight forward as it used to be. What capacity do you want? How much do you want to pay? Do you go for a more expensive (and possibly more reliable) branded stick or a slightly cheaper one from a manufacturer you've never heard of? In the end, I compromised on all these options, picking up an 8GB memory stick branded and sold by Play.com. In comparison with many memory sticks (particularly modern ones), the Play.com version is actually quite large. The internal workings of the stick are standard size, but the whole thing is encased ...  Read the complete review
