Sony Micro Vault Tiny 2 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive with Virtual Expander USM2GH/T2

The design and colors are great, also the size, I just have a problem with my laptop because the Micro Vault is so thin that doesn't touch the contacts in the USB port. My laptop only recognize the device in 1 of 3 usb ports. I tried in other laptops and still have the same problem.

Saw this for sale recently and picked it up despite already having a couple 1GB SanDisk micros as well as a 2GB one. I pretty much just got it since it was TINY. I figured it'd be slower than my others.

Very clever of Sony making USB thumb drives that were exactly the right physical size to fit their BCP-S350 blueray player.

Works absolutely fine.
