Product Description
When it comes to file storage, you want something as reliable as your favorite lovable robot. This metal USB flash drive features a delightful robot that just can't wait to pull its own head off to hold your data. The robot's head doubles as the flash drive cap, and is attached to the body via two springy "arms" so you cant't lose it. Comes pre-formatted with the FAT32 file system - compatible with nearly all operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux/Unix) and the Playstation 3 as well. Please note, actual storage capacity will be slightly under 8 gigabytes due to necessary format data inherent in any flash drive. Length: 7.5cm / 3in. Width: 5.5cm / 2.2 in.

The case is solid metal, nicely finished, and very, very cute. However, the drive itself is a straight USB stick that is held in place mostly by friction. The two units I bought came with the connector slid down inside the enclosure about 1/8", and as a result the connection to the computer wasn't reliable. I opened the robot up (easy, just two screws, but make careful note of how the arms and legs come out) and found that the drive was shorter than the hold-in-place thingies were designed for. The drive had been wrapped in tape for a tight fit, but still could move under force. I put the drive in the correct position, jammed a couple of toothpick pieces below it for reinforcement, and put everything back together. So far it has stayed put.

This was a Christmas present for my brother, and he loved it! The robot is absolutely adorable, too! My brother was very pleased, especially since it was more GB than he had asked for (he'd asked for the 4GB but this one was cheaper!). So glad this product exists!
