Default USB flash size over 256mb phsical size not an issue..

Just been looking at

http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/list...drives+storage


Is there anything about bigger than 256mb?

1gb - 2gb would be nice, with a reasonable price, not fussed about physical size to a degree.

If size really isn't an issue, how about something like this.

It's a caddie for a 2.5" laptop hardrive that lets you plug it into a USB socket. It draws it's power from the USB as well. We've been using them a while with some old 4Gb drives we had lying about, but you can get up to 80Gb 2.5" drives now.
