Do any of these Mini USB drives come in a larger capacity, or is that in
the near future. Does anyone have any experience in using these two
drives and can offer a comparison?
They come in larger sizes but the price ratchets up rapidly.
I just got a SanDisk Cruzer mini USB drive at Costco for $50 for a 256mb version. It's awesome.
All last week, when we were hit with the blaster virus, I carried around our latest antivirus, cleaning tools and windows NT, 2000 and XP service packs to patch our PC's on it with *tons* of room to spare. It worked so well our business manager just went and bought a bunch for use at the College.
I love it, I download anything I want at work, and can carry it home to my Mac without a problem. Plug it in and it works, on *any* system.
This is almost a zip-killer. With this and a cdrw for archival storage it *is* a zip-killer. I really have zero need for my zip disk any more.
Moreover, keep an eye on the ads, you can often pick up 64 mb and 128 mb ones for free or nearly so after rebates.
