It depends mostly on whether you have multimedia that you also want on the
flash drive ( personally I would leave photos etc on the desktop). If the
only use is for Legacy, you probably can't buy a drive that is too small
nowadays. A quick check of one online supplier shows over a hundred drives
over 1 GB and only 10 that are either 256 MB or 512 MB.
Since you can get 2 GB for under $10, 4 GB from $14 to 20, and 8 GB from $22
to 35, there is really no reason to skimp.
Another question to ask is whether to get a U3 drive or not. Someone else
will have to explain the pros and cons to that decision.

Subject: [LegacyUG] flash drive for Legacy
I just bought a laptop and am considering installing Legacy on a flash drive
to use with the Laptop and then plug in to my desktop computer. I have 3
separate family files with a total of about 9,000 individuals, any
suggestions as to what size flash drive I'd need to operate Legacy on? Are
I hope this is not "off topic".
