Not bad for $4 each even not as good as the special from Harvey Norman last deal.

They're actually useful for software during boot up.
Why not use a fast drive to boot up faster or 50x faster?
you've obviously never tried to copy an image to a cisco router/switch
So that's what you're using it for. Fair enough. Speed won't matter then. :)
I'm talking about applications like OS setup or creating images before OS is loaded; not starting up OS normally…
Also, some motherboards cannot boot from USB 3.0 ports.
Ok, as above.
Yeah agreed like the Windows 10 media tools.
I picked these for $9 from Harvey Norman not long ago. Individual 8gb sticks at $3 each.
I still use crappy usb2 for giving photos to clients on. Wack them on one of these and they can print straight off them.
Ditto. Wish I had bought a ton of the Sandisk from Officeworks a while ago at $2.something.
I picked up 40 and before that about 30…Next time I see them at that price will grab a few more.
Also have some with windows 10 and 8/8.1 even 7 loaded on them.If you wanna offload any let me know hahahaha. Regret not buying 50 or so lol
What do you do with that many?
@ronnknee:
I do some part time photography. After I edit the images I put a couple of folders with print files and web files on them.Give them to client and they can do as they please…print straight off them or copy files onto PC.
I used to use DVDs. But too much mucking around. Burn two CDs and print on them, this is way easier.
If you need that many then why not you buy straight from the suppliers and could get price as low as $1 each? I assume you have an ABN number.
@PW:
what supplier is gonna sell me 50-100 for $1 each?…and yes I have an ABNCall SanDisk Australia, but you might have to buy a minimum of 1000 units.
But Kmart is $10 normal price
Different product bro.
The Verbatim ones are faster and 3x larger in sizes.
instore they are same price bought some yesterday
Couldn't find any in-store at my local, but there were individual Sandisk Cruser Blade 8GB (in blue, pink or green) for $5 each (down from $7), or same in 16GB for $12 (down from $15).
Do people still use these crappy USB2.0 turtle drives?
