Where you bought it? I go ask they quote Trek Mini 256mb abt $40 so by extrapolation 512mb should be $60 so urs is considered cheap. Besides brand difference wat factors to look for? Read/write speed? Driver installation?[/b]
No need lah.Originally posted by sohguanh:One more point if just bought a brand new thumbdrive do you need to do some formatting first? Or it always assume ppl gonna use Windows family operating system?
lexar is pretty okOriginally posted by sohguanh:I do an online survey of pricing (estimated price) and it seems below three brands are the cheapest for thumbdrive
Imation (abt same as Trek)
Kingston (cheapest)
Trek (abt same as Imation)
I was thinking if price is not by > $5 it is not worth my time and effort go down to SLS to buy. May as well buy it from my walking distance cwt shopping mall.
