8GB Sandisk Cruzer Micro U3 Flash Drive
Started Jan 14, 2008
Strengths: Memory size, retractable input for USB port, good purchase price
Weaknesses: Extra non-essential applications included, memory somewhat smaller than advertised; no neck lanyard included with product.
Like other Sandisk flash drives (I own several), this product is well designed and functions without trouble. The retractable input eliminates worries about losing the cap and distress if you do lose it. Like all drives, its actual capacity is less than advertised, and there's extra software installed on it designed for PCs, which is useless is you're a Mac user (like me). I buy these drives strictly for storage space, so that stuff is just dross anyway. Also, the "U3 Drive" which appears on your desktop in mounting is a nuisance because you have to remember to trash BOTH the drive icon and the U3 icon to properly disconnect it. Nevertheless-if you need lots of room on a flash drive, consider this one -- decent value for the price.
