I bought an Emtec (BASF) one a couple of months back and it's already foobared, so I need a new portable media storage device which is robust enough to cope with life on my keyring, and reliable. I'd ideally like to spend less than £15, so who's got good experiences to share ?

If you want to spend about 90 quid, there is one that the CIA use, it also saves all ur Firefox bookmarks and has a built in proxy server so u can surf with NO work history lol
but its bullit proof and no one has got into one without loosing the data except the CIA, who can only get at the chip even they cant access the info.

4gb is too small if your downloading films and music and transferring it onto family and friends computers.......8gb is fine its only a tenner.
