SanDisk Cruzer Blade 8GB (5 pack) USB 2.0 Flash Drive Jump Drive Pen Drive SDCZ50 - Five Pack w/ (2) Everything But Stromboli (TM) Lanyard

I bought a two-pack of the 4GB version the other day to use for live boot Linux. They worked well, so I bought these 8GB drives for the same purpose. I have used them all for persistent Linux live boots, and they all are doing the job. I note that another reviewer reported problems using them to live boot Kaspersky Rescue CD. I installed Kaspersky as well as some other rescue tools as a multi-boot setup on one of the 4GB drives and it seems to be working fine for me. I formatted the drive before use, then used YUMI to install the programs to the drive. I will report back if anything comes up.

These have a cheaper than normal feel for a San-Disk item, but so far they perform perfectly like every San-Disk item Ive purchased does-hence the 4 instead of 3 stars

Used these to save our wedding pictures on then gave them to family members. I just wish theyd include more lanyards but a little ribbon did the trick too.

needed one, but got the 5pack since it made financial sense given the cost difference. use one for home, for work, for school, for whatever. never had a problem with sandisk memory products.

Very good

Only used 3 so far - no issues - am using them for boot USBs for our household machines (Vista, Win 7 Win8 and Server) for backup and for boot issue resolution along with R&D on other test machines - if ther are any long-term issues i will update this review - so far soo good

Whats not to love about a thumb drive that is so small it takes up almost no room. I like the little 8G size as it is just perfect to store a copy of the download of the latest OS. Im a Mac user and I want to have a bootable wee drive for each OS that has come out since I bought my machine. They seem to vanish from the App Store after a while. I can label one of these and put it into a little plastic bag and toss that into the file box that holds everything installable for my iMac.

A little smaller than I thought. and only drawback is they dont retract. Overall still satisfied. AAA+

I bought these for my elderly Parents as they have expressed a desire to document all the items they want to leave behind for their four children after they are gone. My Mom is writing down the items as well as taking photos and then I shall be transferring that info to the Cruzer jump drive that has that particular childs name on it. Hopefully this will make things very clear during what will be a sad and difficult time for our family. Together with my parents I suggested this solution even though shes not computer savvy. She takes the photos. etc and then I transfer the info to the correctly marked pen drive. These are nice and small and I kept one for myself to put my medical records to keep on my key ring. That way if I am unconscious and taken to hospital, the emergency room personnel can pop it in their computer via the USB port and see my info. They also have a bit of security feature added but I havent used it yet. As I was originally looking for 1 or 2GB drives I found these were actually a better buy and with 8GB each. Great deal. There were 2 lanyards instead of five. Not sure why that is but that wasnt an issue for me as I always change my lanyards to be long enough to wear as sort of a necklace, so about 20 or more.

Quick delivery and fast performance.
