Need a decent flash drive

[boomhower]

I'm in need of a decent USB 2.0 flash drive. Looking for 16-32GB. I just don't know what's good. I'll be using it to transfer large files between computers, wireless is just to slow and wired is not feasible.

You can check the speeds here but write speeds on thumb drives aren't that fast either.

Got to be faster than 40 minutes for a 5GB file.

I've had good experiences with SanDisk Cruzer drives. Just bought a 32GB on Amazon for $20 for my car stereo.

I think I read that the Sandisk extreme drives are the fastest out there (USB 3.0 and fast memory)

Amazon link to 32gb version here:

Like everyone mentioned, writes are slow ESPECIALLY if you are transferring alot of small files. You can alleviate some that slowness by using TeraCopy, but IMO just don't spend too much money on a USB flash drive. Portable 1TB USB external drives can be had for $60-80 and those transfer small files better flash drives.

Looks like the Sandisk Extreme is going to be the winner. If I needed the room that centon looks like a winner.
