I can't stand retractable thumb drives. They always push back into the housing when inserting them into the USB slot. Don't buy these if you plan on letting them bounce around in a dirty backpack or anything, but they are sturdy, consistent and reasonably fast. And CHEAP!

Very affordable product of great value. With that small hole I bring it together with my keys everytime anywhere and its very handy.

found it was a really tight fit in my car and pc USB sockets; Not sure why it's so difficult to enter and exit

I used one of these every day for a couple of years on in-house equipment. Reliable, average speed, cheap, no flashing light. Shame about the USB connector - not metal but thin plastic. Pieces kept chipping off bit by bit until it eventually became unuseable.

So far so good, this flash is not a primary drive for me so I haven't used it a lot. It's working fine so far and the price was decent.

I bought two of these (one in red and one in blue) to use with two different clients. They are very small so easy to have more than one on your keyring without too much bulk. Very, very quick to copy from my (old) MacBook, so quick and easy keep up to date. And Sandisk are always reliable.

I bought 8 of these USB sticks for our family from Harvey Norman and put a lot of familyshoot photos on them for family members. My verdict is 10/10 for price, size, capacity and looks. On top of that, you can fix a tag to label the USB stick.

Having ordered three of these and only one has lasted more than six months. These flash drives consistently stop being recognized by any computer regardless of the operating system for seemingly no reason.
