Mushkin Enhanced Mulholland 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive Model MKNUFDMH8GB

Pros: -performs as expected
-does well as a Xbox 360 portable memory stick

Cons: Only con is it is not USB 3.0 but then again my main use for it wouldn't be using a 3.0 port anyways

Other Thoughts: Bought this solely for use on my Xbox 360 because I travel enough to need to be able to transport my profile/costumes/dlc/saves around.

Pros: fast drives, compact, used to create USB flash drive

Cons: none so far

Pros: Used as boot drive for my FreeNAS system. Does the job lickity split, looks nice, and I just like saying Mushkin.

Cons: None.

Pros: I've had this flash drive for a year, and I use it every day for my job. Its taken quite a beating and kept on going. Transfer speeds are good and it has never lost data.

Cons: Not one. Its works like it should.

Other Thoughts: Accidentally ran this through my washer and dryer the other day. I was a bit worried, but it turned out just fine. Still works and still has all my files!

Pros: This flashdrive has been going strong for just over 2 years with daily use with no signs of stopping anytime soon. It was everything I needed and is still my go-to drive.

If you're still in the market for a USB 2.0 drive, definitely pick this baby up.

Cons: As others have said the cap is very easy to lose. Mine went missing the second week I had it.

Other Thoughts: I'm finally looking to replace this drive with a new USB 3.0 drive. For better or worse, technology doesn't stop moving forward.

Pros: This drive is fast and solid. Most usb drives are flaky in some respects, speed, dropouts, cheap build, etc. This thing is perfect!

Cons: That I don't have 10 of em!

Other Thoughts: I'll be getting some more larger flash drives from mushkin. Quality all around.

Pros: Very fast read and write. I don't have any USB drives that are faster for read, and only one that's just barely faster for writes.
Enough space enough for me.
About as physically small as I'd want, doesn't block other ports, but also doesn't get lost in my bag.

Cons: Just slightly slower for writes than my Patriot XT Rage 8G.

Other Thoughts: I use this for testing MacOS/Linux/FreeBSD distros, so often write a full 4-8GB ISO to it. Can quickly write a new installer to the USB drive, then quickly (much faster than DVD) boot a computer from it. This is easily my favorite USB drive. My Patriot XT Rage 8GB is slightly faster for writes (1:18 to write 1GB vs. 1:30) but it's relatively big and bulky.

Pros: This was actually faster than my previous Patriot XPorter XT 8GB, and I think it's at least as fast or faster than my new Patriot Rage XT 8GB.

The small size means it won't interfere with other USB devices when ports are closely spaced, as can happen with the otherwise great Patriot drives mentioned above.

The drive is very small and has a usable keyring hole if you need it.

Nice, understated design.

The cap protects the plug well.

Cons: Cap easily lost.

It's is so small, I lost the drive itself!

A bit expensive compared to other high-performance USB 2.0 drives.

Other Thoughts: I ended up getting a Patriot Rage XT to replace it due to being a few dollars cheaper, along with its sheath mechanism to protect the plug, which is preferable to a loose-able cap.

Pros: -It's very fast - Used it to boot Ubuntu, no lag.
-Not too big, not too small
-Plastic, but great build quality
-Well, worth the price

Cons: -Cap is detachable, thus easy to lose
-A bit more expensive than competitors

Other Thoughts: I've used this to boot Ubuntu off of it and was impressed by its speed. I've dropped it several times, but it has not resulted in any damage whatsoever. Overall, I'm very happy with the build and the product itself.

Pros: Probably not THE fastest flash drive in existence, but it IS extremely fast. Probably 3x faster than what you're used to for flash drives.

Cons: The plastic cap is clear, which makes it susceptible to being lost. I haven't lost it yet, but it's a fear of mine.

Other Thoughts: Buy it. Mushkin always makes quality products.
