thanks
 
I assume your talking about the USB thumbdrive?

For the most part, it really doesn't matter as to which brand you choose, as all the USB devices are pretty much the same.

USB Drives @ Newegg
128mb USB Drive @ Officemax for $29.99 AR
Good deal on a 256mb drive

For basic college stuff like papers, presentations, etc., I would think that 128mb would be plenty. Another think to consider is if you want USB 1.1 or USB 2.0. The transfer speeds are much higher with USB 2.0, but your hardware may not be USB 2.0.

I've got a 128mb USB 1.1 drive, and for basic transfer of files between home and work, USB 1.1 is plenty fast enough.
 
do a search on hot deal forum. in general a 256MB is a sweet spot for now. $35-55. can be bought off buy.com newegg.com or amazon.com
