I have had many USB memory sticks over the years and have normally stumped up for an expensive product as I can at times be abit of a technology snob. It was my girlfriend who found this available on E-Bay for under £5 and that included delivery.

Size

The San Disk memory stick really is tiny, making it perfect for anyone as once you have finished using it you are able to slip it into any pocket where you know it's safe. The drawback to this is that on the odd occassion you will find yourself looking for it, this can take a while due to it's small size. If you are looking for a truly portable memory stick then this may be for you.

Memory

The memory is a reasonable size, allowing a maximum of 4 gig of extra space to help keep important files and documents with you. The memory of 4gig does place restrictions on what you are able to put on the device, if you are looking for a portable way of transferring video (such as HD film or just normal film) I would suggest looking for a memory stick with a far larger memory.

Speed

As soon as this is plugged into your computer you have access to the files located on the USB and can transfer information between the PC and the USB. Transferring is done easily using the simple "drag and drop" technique to place files onto the memory stick. Alternatively you are able to save files/documents/pictures etc directly to the USB stick.

Availability

There will be no difficulty locating a good place to purchase this product. Mine was purchased new E-Bay but there are a host of other sites available. The best thing is to search around to ensure the best price, this would normally be the auction site but Amazon and other are worth checking to ensure the best price.

Overall

This is a very good sized memory stick for a very good price. My main concern is the lack of a cap or some kind of protection for the USB connection, I have had many in the past and all have had a cap to protect the vital connection parts but it seems to have been forgotten on this one. I would still recommend this though, as for the price and quality it can still only be considered a bargain.
