          Comments about SanDisk 8GB Cruzer Blade USB Flash Drive:

          I bought this to make a bootable installation drive for the Mac OS Mountain Lion, since Apple no longer provides it on CD. This drive is the perfect size, since any more capacity would be wasted, and the price is certainly right. It worked well, and the process was fast, so the RW speed is good. It has a slot on the end that I used to attach a tag, so I could label it, and to help find it when needed. I'm very happy with the purchase.

                Bought these to give to friends and family for exchanging files, since they lose my high-capacity drives. Works like a charm. Very easy to keep on a key ring and no caps to lose. No issues with installs or data loss. Great buy for the price.

                            Not any bigger than needed, and not too small to handle. Just big enough to be easy to hold between thumb and finger. Simple curved design helps make it easy to hold and control, and looks cool too. Works without fuss, faster than my older drives. What else is there to report?

                            Small enough to be easy to lose, so make sure you have a small closed pocket for them in your laptop case/pack/bookbag, or string them on a lanyard using the hole provided.

                            Bought this usb drive to transfer files for school (mainly pdfs,word docs, pictures, and video). It works well and came formatted in Fat32 so it was ready to go for Macs and PCs.

                            This thing is tiny compared to other drives and seems a little flimsy.

                            Performance wise it's not the fastest drive but also not the slowest. It's suitable for general use but if you are super antsy then go for a high performance drive.

                                  I bought this to make a bootable installation drive for the Mac OS Mountain Lion, since Apple no longer provides it on CD. This drive is the perfect size, since any more capacity would be wasted, and the price is certainly right. It worked well, and the process was fast, so the RW speed is good. It has a slot on the end that I used to attach a tag, so I could label it, and to help find it when needed. I'm very happy with the purchase.

                                        Bought these to give to friends and family for exchanging files, since they lose my high-capacity drives. Works like a charm. Very easy to keep on a key ring and no caps to lose. No issues with installs or data loss. Great buy for the price.

                                              The 8gb cruzer blade flash drive by sandisk is very small but with so much memory which you could use to store personal data like music and videos exedra.. It's amazing

                                                  I used it to create a bootable copy of OSX Lion after I purchased it from the App store.

                                                  I will purchase these when I need more USB flash drives.

                                                    Not any bigger than needed, and not too small to handle. Just big enough to be easy to hold between thumb and finger. Simple curved design helps make it easy to hold and control, and looks cool too. Works without fuss, faster than my older drives. What else is there to report?

                                                    Small enough to be easy to lose, so make sure you have a small closed pocket for them in your laptop case/pack/bookbag, or string them on a lanyard using the hole provided.

                                                    Bought this usb drive to transfer files for school (mainly pdfs,word docs, pictures, and video). It works well and came formatted in Fat32 so it was ready to go for Macs and PCs.

                                                    This thing is tiny compared to other drives and seems a little flimsy.

                                                    Performance wise it's not the fastest drive but also not the slowest. It's suitable for general use but if you are super antsy then go for a high performance drive.
