    why not say if its USB 2.0 or 3.0 or 1.0 ?

        I had one USB 1.1 Flash drive before, even some of my friends got some but it's very rare.

          1.1 is not 1.0 :)

      • Keef on 01/05/2012 - 21:26

        why is everyone negging this? If you have proof that 1.0 exists..post it.

      The 5th photo on the website actually shows it is USB 2.0

    Meh, just ordered a Sandisk 8GB off eBay for $5.99 delivered. Is this any better?

      gonna be a whole load better if your eBay one is a fake ;)

    Seems to get pretty fast speed ratings according to the reviews on MWave: http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SKUSearch.asp?px=FO&scriteria=BA3…

    I might pick up a couple, thanks OP!

      From a review: "I got 23MB sequential read and 9MB sequential write"

  • XeSSiV on 27/04/2012 - 17:13

    These are great drives - not sure about speedwise [they're not slow but there's probably faster] but I've had a few of them for years and they have never let me down :)

  • vid_ghost on 27/04/2012 - 17:39

    awesome price just got one..

  • MrZ on 27/04/2012 - 17:41

    I still don't get how this is a bargain as $5.99 for 8GB Sandisk is the "normal" price with eBay sellers…

    • hashtagbargain on 27/04/2012 - 17:55
      +2

      reputation, warranty, quick delivery, guarantee of a original product, supporting OZ business…

      enough reasons for you?

      • MrZ on 27/04/2012 - 18:10
        +1

        Er, I am supporting Aussie business because the eBay seller is Australian.

          How about every other point he mentioned?

          I don't know if Sandisks warranty is 5 years or not, but who is still using USB sticks they bought in 2007? What was common then, 1GB?

        • highdealer on 27/04/2012 - 20:02
          +6

          i still got a 64MB usb from 2006

        • MrZ on 27/04/2012 - 20:19
          +1

          2006, are you sure?! Cos I was using a 32MB in late 2002. 64MB would have been pretty small by 2006…

        • Hirokuro on 27/04/2012 - 22:09

          Hmm… I bought a 2GB Transcend USB stick for $99 from Tandy back in 2006. Still have it and works flawlessly

        • Chopel on 27/04/2012 - 23:07

          I'm still using 128MB for bootdisk :)

  • bargdebarg on 27/04/2012 - 17:54

    Just got 2. Nice one.

  • sylviaf on 27/04/2012 - 18:08

    seems nice, but I already got one, to be or not to be…

      got the same error, reloaded the page and it seemed to work.

      • Rogerwilco on 28/04/2012 - 01:13

        Me too but I tried again like you said and it worked. Thanks.

  • emerson on 27/04/2012 - 18:34

    Cheers, just grabbed a couple, they will replace the crappy Sandisk 8GB i bought the other day (http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/68592).

    • aerona on 27/04/2012 - 23:57

      whats wrong with it? I've been using mine for over a year but the 16GB VERSION

      • emerson on 28/04/2012 - 13:22

        Incredibly slow and keeps crashing my work PC (using it purely for a .pst file)
        BTW i'm talking about the Sandisk one, not the Kingston one

        • aerona on 28/04/2012 - 13:37

          Yeah I have the sandisk one, did you try reformating it?, it will get rid of the ugly sandisc icon too. Only problem i had with it is the little loop hole for the key ring has cracked. Your right though it's quite slow though.

  • revo on 27/04/2012 - 19:01

    Dammit if only there was a 16gb with that amount of discount :/

    • vid_ghost on 27/04/2012 - 19:40

      on the site for $15.99 with 2 bux shipping :) not cheap but not too exp

    • montorola on 27/04/2012 - 19:44

      Agreed. 8GB is sooo 2009 lol

  • youknow on 27/04/2012 - 22:46

    Regarding speed, if you believe the figures on this table: http://usbspeed.nirsoft.net/?vid=2385&pid=5698 - then the following speeds are fairly much what you might hope to expect from this device for sequential read and writes. Not lightening, but not poor.

    Median
    Read: 18.4 MB/Sec
    Write: 5.5 MB/Sec

    Average
    Read: 19.0 MB/Sec
    Write: 5.9 MB/Sec

  • betheball on 28/04/2012 - 07:44

    Thanks OP, got one. $6 can't go wrong….

  • mazuko on 28/04/2012 - 10:23

    Thanks OP

  • superuser on 29/04/2012 - 10:43

    I just bought one from ebay for $7.80 and then see this bargain :((.

  • KevinFine on 30/04/2012 - 10:49

    Got 2 of these. Good thing I hesitated on the DSE deal for the cruzer - http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/68592

    My 2 arrived today - 4.2MB/s write and 15MB/s read.
    Can't really complain for $6 each. Thanks OP.

  • zxcv on 07/05/2012 - 21:55

    These look to be back in stock. Anyone else waiting for their order? I'm still waiting.
