cheap USB drives (1 Viewer)

[ToO LaZy ^*]

where can i get a cheap 256mb usb mini drive? (or 512mb, depending on price)
i've checked officeworks and they are selling just under $50..
any other good places to buy one? (non ebay pls)

i got a great sandisk (gr8 brand) 256mb one for 60 bucks at strattys
dont go for the cheap ones.

too lazy, why not ebay?

coz ebay you risk getting some piece o' shit 1.0 usb and it'll take like 10minutes just to copy a 50mb file onto the disk.
You can buy usb's practically from anywhere.
If you're that lazy buy it online from www.strathfield.com or other online pc shops

what Bob.J said...and i'd rather just go into a shop and buy the bloody thing without all these online forms, delivery shit, insurance..blah blah blah...its just too much of a fuss.

ok because i got my sandisk 512mb one for around $62 or something. Bob.J : Yes you do risk that, but im sure too lazy is more informed than to buy something like that?
