Last time I checked you can get 1TG for about that these days.

I was going through some old USB drives to see what was on them. Found a blank one with 2.1GB total capacity. That's about as useful as a floppy disk...

Wow, thumb drive bombs. I already would never simply plug some random USB devices into one of my machines, but this will be an interesting series of events to point to when discussing the potential extremes of activating unknown devices!

Journalist plugs in unknown USB drive mailed to him—it exploded in his face

Explosives replace malware as the scariest thing a USB stick may hide.

I pulled all these out of my sock drawer the other day.

You'd be surprised at the things still hidden down in there.

I am looking to get a USB memory stick (again...).
I was hoping that SanDisk will not let me down, but out of 2 units I purchased, one died within a year. I don't really trust the other.
I wonder if PNY is a reliable brand. I don't want to be forced to send my USB stick to a landfill every year, becasue it was cheap, that's harmful to the planet and I don't want that.
Do you know any USB memory brands that don't sell disposable units?
