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

I have to admit that I collect flash drives. I have too many of these and am always looking for new ones. I have used it many times. It's probably one of the most durable flash drives I've ever used, and the solid metal construction makes it virtually indestructible. I get wet all the time and I cleaned them up by just rinsing them off and wiping them dry. I probably gave away 10 of these to relatives who need my photos or computer files. To be honest I love these CDs. However, I hate to say…

I confess I love very small, bright, shiny things and these are the brightest, shiniest and smallest USB sticks you will find. I have 8GB and 16GB and about five minutes later I grab another 16GB drive when I return to my cart. You can carry them around on your keychain and no one will even notice that you're an absolute geek with a bag full of flash drives! Instead you have these little shiny metal rectangles that could be some kind of art or something. The discs themselves are virtually…

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…

Definitely the smallest flash drive I've ever owned (physical size, not capacity). It's almost too small to be comfortable as I often forget where I left it. The appearance of the nickel version is really nice, but after a few weeks of use, I noticed a little wear on the back of the USB pins. This is probably because it fits most USB ports; It definitely requires more effort to insert this disc into a computer. Data transfer is about the same as most other flash drives I've used. In any case…

I recently bought 4 of these little 8GB USB sticks. I was immediately struck by its size and performance. The USB stick looks very solid and the read/write speed is much faster than other USB sticks I've used. One of the four drives ordered was defective. I had no problems reading or writing files to either, but one of the drives caused my Pioneer CDJ-400 to malfunction when I was using it to store and play music. Upon further investigation, I found that this ONE drive was drawing more current…

I'm an IT professional and like many computer savvy people I've proven that I'm the go-to person for any computing and computing problems my friends and family have. I bought this USB stick (32GB nickel-plated version) in early 2012 after one of my colleagues showed it to me and described its characteristics to my complaint about the need to buy such a product. Intending to use it for my daily work and troubleshooting like him, I immediately partitioned it and loaded it with a full set of…

I've seen several comments about this device being thicker than a regular USB device. I decided to ignore her and give it a try anyway, but it turned out even thicker than I imagined. It was difficult to insert/remove into regular laptop. I won't even try it on my Mac for fear of damaging or bending the internal pins. It's fair to say that Mac USB ports can be flimsy compared to the USB specification, but the combination of being too thick and too thin can be very unfortunate. The Verbatim Tuff
