Good price for click and collect in WA and VIC.
Pros: Cheap USB flash drive
Cons: Cheap USB flash drive
YMMV
I really wouldn't trust a USB flash drive as your only backup as they can be a bit flaky. You'd be better off with a portable USB hard drive. If price is an issue and you still want to go with a USB flash drive then at least buy two of them and have two copies of your data.
Not really as it's still a USB flash drive. The problem with flash drives is that they are slow at reading and writing compared with USB hard drives. They can also run very hot if you are copying lots of files over at once and that's when they are likely to fail. If you only plan on copying a few gigs of data over at a time they will do the job but otherwise look for something like this https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/wd-element…
