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

All 5 work great for my OS boots for my job. 3 running clonezilla, 1 running OSX, and the other for all my windows installs. Probably will end up buy 5 more later on down the road.

Used to store the photos from my old laptop, which is about to give out. Have stored all my photos and still have room on the first flash drive. Excellent purchase.

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.

I bought these to have something to fix my Dads computer with. He managed to some how to destroy his operating system and I used one of these babies to get him up and running again. Then my son was visiting and when he went home he took back copies of some online books I had bought he hadnt read yet. So convenient, so small,, so reliable. Worth every penny and inexpensive,

Love the size and form factor of these thumb thrives. Perfect storage size for day to day office needs, and cheap enough that you dont stress about losing it after forgetting which coworker you lent it to!

Its now a month past the return window, and I plug one in and it doesnt show on the computer. Plug a different new one in and it works fine. No idea whether its a Seller issue, a Sandisk issue, or just something that happens. To avoid what happened to me, open them all up immediately and test them. They appear cheap--but how am I supposed to know what a knockoff looks like or performs like these days?

Zap the included software/program to gain space. These a entirely plastic but seem ok so far. They have been inserted in five different computers without any problems with recognition.

The flash drives seem to be working okay, but theyre very small (lost one after 3 days) and have a really cheap, light, plastic feeling. Not something Id put on my keychain and carry around. Also the ScanDisk encryption software that came with it had a GUI wasnt very user friendly and had problems with dragging & dropping files/folder onto the disk.

Just the right size to share with someone

Delivered on time, and I checked 2 of them are good. I believe the rest are good to use as well. wish there are more hang ropes included.
