Scarecrow Man Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 I am currently using SanDisk Cruzer Mini 512MB. I was using a SanDisk Cruzer Mini 128MB before this.I am VERY happy with the speed and storage of these drives, but I have not been gentle with them. I have wrecked both, but they both still work. What I've done is plugged them into a computer (or laptop) and I have tipped the computer over to check something on the back, or whatever, only to realize I forgot my flash drive plugged into the front which is now bent at almost 90 degrees (as apposed to 180)Basically I am looking for a drive that will give me the high speed performance of USB 2.0, but the durability of a piece of solid steel without breaking my wallet.I am also thinking about going up to 1GB. I fill my 512 with my daily programs, but will need more space when school starts again.any recomendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Sandisk Titanium Cruzer is designed for tough use environments, but the price is :jawdrop:I also wonder if it would actually help as the USB plug/body connecting part isn't likely to be any stronger and that sounds like where the damage has occurred. I know if I bent £78 worth I'd go ballistic. I wasn't too happy when I damaged my cheapo from ebuyer, fortunately I managed to squeeze it back into shape with a vice ( I know real hi tech, but what the hell it worked.)

Scarecrow Man Posted August 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Yes, I've seen the Titanium. Looks durable, but I need something that protects the USB portion of the drive. I am not running over it with my car, just plugging it into computers, and occasionally bumping into it with my knee or a chair.P.S. needle nose pliers do the trick as well :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
