1GB USB Flash Drive Buying Tips
Currently 1gb flash drives are the most common. With so many maufacturers producing generic usb flash drives is it any wonder that 1gb usb flash drives have become a commodity item?
Recent searches through popular online retailers see dramatic price drops from even three months ago. Prices vary but the average price right now seems to be about $25 for a standard speed device. The more specialized usb drives like capless or miniature designs or higher speeds can command a few dollars more.
Some hybrid types such as this SD flash memory with a slim USB connector built in are gaining popularity for travellers.
Some things to look for when shopping for your 1gb usb flash drive:
- size and portability:while most usb “thumbdrives” are relatively small, paying a little extra nets you something than can slip into your pocket without a bulge
- speed:not all flash drives do not transfer or write at the same speed;check specs first
- build quality: with so many manufacturers, quality of course varies; avoid cheap plastic housings and choose a name brand product when possible; they’ll be around to honor their warranties in case something breaks
