Review on Super Talent Pico-C Gold USB 2.0 Flash Drive, 4 GB: STU4GPCG by Brandon Kraemer

I heard about Super Talent before I saw this USB stick. But as far as I knew they were a notch down from Coby on Electronics TotemPole. I have to tell you that I had to return one of these after it mysteriously stopped working. I didn't throw it away, it wasn't abused. I played an MP3 of it on my computer and suddenly it was gone. However the company was pretty good with the return process and after a top notch seal (thing is SMALL) I had a new USB stick. CONSTRUCTION Let's start with the construction. I'm not worried about this hack! I have a new one on my keychain and it has held up pretty well in my pocket every day. Despite its small size, the metal case seems to be quite robust. However, I don't hang keys on it when I use it, I bought a quick release chain for it. QUALITY I've used this on multiple devices and it worked very well except for the first bug. I used to install operating systems (quickly), transfer files (quickly) and also save data from my Xbox (error-free). It's just as fast as any other USB stick I've owned with the added benefit of being small! WHY 4 STARS? - Small (+) - Fast (+) - Durable (+) - Had to return the first one (- ) GENERALLY, I definitely recommend this USB stick - it's compact and, apart from my first failure, pretty reliable. If Super Talent wasn't easy to deal with this review would be very different, but the 1 week RMA process was a pleasant surprise!
