Sandisk 8GB Cruzer Titanium USB 2.0 Flash Drive (SDCZ7-8192-A11, Retail Package)

 (78 customer reviews)

I just received this product, and contrary to other reviews (however, I think one recent review addresses this), this is the new version in which Sandisk is skimping on quality-wise. The performance is slower, the LED is amber (as in the Sandisk Micro flash drives), the material feels much cheaper than the original (really seems like a non authentic Sandisk titanium), and essentially lacks the quality I was expecting when replacing my 4GB cruzer titanium (purposely skipped out on the 16GB titanium that also is available due to the new cheaper manufacturing).

I had another memory stick before this one made of plastic. I carried it around in my pocket for files I wanted to use on both my work and home computer. The old plastic one was wearing out just from knocking around in my pocket and I was afraid of loosing something if it fell apart. This titanium memory stick is much more rugged and has no wear on it at all in the months I've been carrying it around. I also like the retractable USB tongue. The software works well and the installation was completely automatic. No need for any effort on my part. Nice product.

Great flash drive, and very affordable for the capacity. This is my sixth flash drive, not because any have failed, but mostly because of the 8G capacity. I have had 3 different brands and this particular drive is probably one of, or maybe the fastest of all. No cap to lose either and it comes with U3 utilities if you like having those, the password utility is the most used on mine. I use this daily, to breifcase files back and forth from work and home office. Love it.
