Love the U3 addition - T. Becker, Jul 02, 2008

The U3 addition is wonderful!!!... I am considering getting one for each of my children. This way they can customize it to their needs. It's like a little puter without the monitor and keyboard. Hubby loves his!!

owned 1 and will buy another - A. Kelly, Jun 19, 2008

I owned one of these for two years. I ... err ... washed it once (but didn't dry it- I'm not that bad ;-)) and it still worked. I finally broke it when the pc it was inserted into fell over and crushed it breaking the retractable usb jack right off. I was using it with portableapps as I didn't like U3. There is a U3 uninstaller on the site, but I believe that I wound up just deleting everything off the drive and installing portableapps. After I broke it, I bought a Kdata my flash. It is so slow compared to the cruzer that I just can't take it. I am about to order a new cruzer- 8 GB I think this time.
I had absolutely no problems with it once I removed the U3 programs, and I heartily recommend it.

You'll lose it from your key chain!!! - Justitia, Jun 17, 2008

I've had 2 different Sandisks and on both the bar that holds the ring in the corner so you can put it on your key chain came detached enough so the ring slipped through. It was sheer luck that I caught sight of the drive dropping -- which it did several times before I figured out it wasn't the ring that came off but the bar that held it onto the drive that detached form the case on one side, leaving a micro-thin space so the ring could slip through but the space not visible to the eye.

This happened to me on the Titanium. Though it did not happen on my Sandisk micro, it did to my friend's -- and he gave me a micro as a gift.

When I called Sandisk about this 1. They claimed they never heard of this problem -- that is pretty hard to believe, since 2 different people with 2 different models but same key chain design had the exact same problem and 2. They want me to take a picture of the problem before they will address it -- well that's a joke -- you can't see it unless you get microscopic photography.

SO I got this b/c I did not want to keep losing caps and this has a retractable USB plug. But I guess losing caps is better than losing the drive itself.

And like everyone else -- I found the U3 annoying.

Worked as advertised. Feels a bit cheap. - Don V, Jun 16, 2008

Bought 2 of these and they worked first time on 2 different laptops. I deleted the U3 software as I had it on another USB drive and didn't really find it very useful and always had to wait for it install.

I like the slide out USB connector on this drive, but the whole thing is made of plastic and feels pretty flimsy. Guess that's why they have the titanium version at 2-3x the price of this one. You can't complain about the price.
