If you're in the market for a super tiny USB drive that will easily fit on your key chain... look no further. USB drives can't get much smaller than this one is. It's truly hard to fathom that this tiny and thin piece of metal can hold 16GB of information. If you don't need 16GB of storage, it also comes in 4GB and 8GB capacities. And if you want it with "bling"... there's a special gold plated version (I'm so not kidding! :)

I came across this USB drive while reseaching drives to upgrade to. My old 2GB Sandisk titanium was nice but is heavy, big, and didn't fit very nice on my keychain. I think what sealed the deal for me (what made me buy this pico) was that it is also water-proof and that the read/write speed is fast (200x). I've had mine for a few weeks now, and it truly is what it seems. I haven't dunked it in water yet, but I'm sure one of these days I'll forget it in my pocket and put it in the washing machine. It's just a matter of time really... and I hope...Read more

I got this memory stick a short while ago, been using it normally and quite happy with its size and speed. But yesterday the most incredible thing happened. I had forgotten it in the pocket of my shorts. I had put the shorts through a 30 minute wash cycle at 40c. Finding that a stain on the shorts wasn't fully gone, again I put the shorts (with the stick in them) through a 90 minutes cycle at 60c. Remembering the stick much later, I found it caught in the washing machine's rubber gasket. I left it overnight to fully dry, today I have been using the stick normally. All the data was there, and it still reads and writes as usual. Its like it never went through the washing machine!! AMAZING..

Bought drive in July of 2009, used frequently as my work as a computer technician demanded it. The drive is very small as advertised, but believe it or not, it's pretty difficult to plug it into computers since it's so tiny. Also, its connection directly into the port is wider than normal USB Flash Drives, so you need to use some decent force to get the drive into the port correctly. So small + difficult to place into ports with a very tight fit, makes it less easy to use. I can't just stick it into the port unless I have it lined up perfect and I have room so that my fingers can push it in. This doesn't work when I have to reach behind older machines to access their ports, like servers, etc.

Appearance-wise, it's shiny but gets scratched very easily and finger prints stay. It doesn't just scratch, but the kind of scratch that tears the little shiny film on the outside till it shatters and break off, similar to old glue. Over a long period of time, it really loses that...Read more
