USB Memory sticks....

[Coby.]

I'm in need of a fairly large storage USB memory stick to put some films on.

What are the brands to buy and where is the cheapest place to get one from?

Thinking 16gb +

Bought a 32gb SanDisk one recently from Tesco. Can't remember how much it was, they're normally pretty cheap in there though

Not very helpful but I seen 16gb in pc world for £14 I think it was. Might be cheap might be expensive I don't know...

I just got a kingston datatraveler se9 32gb for £15. Neat and looks nice..

I bought my 16GB SanDisk from Play.com for like £4 when it was in the sale. Might be worth a try!

Could spend a little bit more and just get a 500Gb portable HDD.

I'm s**t with tech.

Could I just take the portable hard drive with me and slap it on her laptop and watch movies?

 

[DrR]

Yes, they work exactly the same as a memory stick, just they're bigger, in both size and storage space.

 

[Coby.]

Could be the way to go then..... Can get better quality films put on it then to as less fear of taking up too much space.

 

[Coby.]

Where would be the cheapest place to go buy one from?
Shop wise? Fancy grabbing one tomorrow.

 

[Chrisgti6]

Might be worth a look in Comet, they're selling a load of stuff off (although not very cheap really)

Ebuyer do next day delivery on orders up to 9pm, might save you a few quid if you can wait for a day?

 

[Coby.]

Seems Maplins are fairly well priced..... Reckon I'll go pick up a 250gb hard drive today.

 

[Chrisgti6]

The only one I can find on Maplins website for a reasonable price is this one http://www.maplin.co.uk/250gb-intenso-portable-external-hard-drive-676506
I have a suspicion that it may be a website only product, and not available in stores. Might be worth checking before making the trip.

 

[daveski]

Tesco normally have them in and are well priced.
