Product Spotlight – USB Flash Drives

September 15, 2009

Hey there all, continuing the theme this week we’re running product spotlights on some of the most impressive products in our Crazy Week sale (which you guys should definitely check out, there are a lot of things marked down by more than twenty percent).

Anyway, we’re offering some excellent deals on USB sticks that are well worth checking out. The products spotlit for today are two very different memory sticks, but between them they should keep you covered for pretty much every eventuality.

Kingston DataTraveler Mini Slim 8GB:

The first is Kingston’s DataTraveler Mini Slim at €15.01. First off, it’s excellent to be able to recommend a USB stick at just a shade over €15 that’s fully 8GB, but at the same time, it’s one of that charming style of USB devices that manages to be so very small as to not have the usual USB arrangement.

As you can tell from the above image, it’s of that strange variety of USB devices that slots directly into the USB port itself. If nothing else it’s one of the most elegant USB sticks we sell, and being able to offer 23% off it is always an excellent deal. That said, it is a poor choice for people who tend to get things lost though it does boast a slot for it to be attached to a keyring, which should prevent most of us from losing it.

Still, if you’re the kind of person who runs through multiple USB sticks in a month or two then you might prefer the device below.

Corsair Flash Voyager 8GB:

By contrast to the DataTraveler, Corsair’s Flash Voyager is a ore rugged and heavy duty affair. It’s also more deserving of the title “thumbg-drive” than just about anything else on offer, being as it is almost exactly the same size as a big thumb. Moreover, it’s also 8GB for €15.01 this week.

It’s nice to be able to say that, all things being equal (in terms of cost and capacity) the only reasons to choose between the two devices are down to personal preference. The Corsair certainly has durability on its side though and has one a slew of awards, which you can see on its product page.

Corsair’s Flash Voyager is down 17% this week, while Kingston’s Data Traveler Mini Slim is down 23%. Remember that delivery to our pickup point is free too, so if you’re within driving distance then the €15.01 is all you’ll have to pay for either stick 🙂
