    SVP: DVD-R & CDR - Blank Media: Reviews and Advice is where I buy all my stuff from, made easier for me as I'm only a few miles from them so can pick up and save on postage.

    They have 8gb versions for under £20

    Gamo get one they are worth the investment.
    Like Saddo said it depends what you need it for to determine what size you'll want to get. A 2 gb is a good size for documents, pics and small videos that sort of stuff.

    If your also looking to maybe transfer some fights into it along with other stuff then a 4 or 8 gb would be good for you.
    I have an 8 and I have documents and I add 2 or 3 fights so when I'm at work I can have something to see whe I've got time.

    as far as quality goes, it doesn't really matter.. it's a simple storage device, and you can't really get a "bad" quality one.. It all comes down to what size you want, that's the only decision you really need to make.. if you're using it just for word documents and school stuff, you'd be more than fine with a 1gb drive..

    On another note I don't own one of these, nor do i see the "need" for them.. I mean, everyone in my group in one of my computer classes use them, but it's almost not needed.. Anytime I need to transfer a document from my house to a school computer, i just e-mail it to myself.. This method is MORE reliable because you can't physically lose the file, where you can physically lose your jump drive.. or it could break if you drop it or step on it or something.. So then you may say, what if you are transferring large files? Well i leave that up to my external hard drive.. Cheap to purchase and hold 75-100 gb for a decent price..

    but hey, that's just me.. if i'm formatting a hard drive for someone, and have to reinstall windows and virus protection for them, i just use the external hard drive, but if i had to do that everyday, i'd prob use a flash drive as it's smaller.. ALL depends on what you're doing my friend.
    RP33, I didn't know you were PC savy...

    I just bought what I consider a beauty of a PC and would like to hear your opinion on it. Whe I've got some time I'll post the info. on it.

    What do you mean bro?

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I'm taking them all into account and You'll all be repped later. I'm definitely getting one but it's mainly for work purposes although if I could stick a fight on their to watch,that would be great.

    Question though-are they reliable? Ie if they are dropped,are they finished? aND CAN THEY GET VIRSUES OR CORRUPTION?

    Yes, they can be corrupted or be infected with a virus. If it happens, just reformat it and it's good as new. I have dropped mine for the nth time and it's still working.
