Rating: - Great speed, wish is was smaller
I bought this to run Ubuntu 8.10 on. It installed faster than other flash drives I have tried. Ubuntu ran very smoothly from it, even though I enabled home directory encryption. The only gripes about it that I have are: (1) It's very large compared to SanDisk's TItanium (2) Sometimes it's hard to open and close it. It would have been very helpful if it came with a short extension cord, I am sometimes afraid that due to it's weight it will fall out of the USB port, or due to it's length I might hit ... Read More
Rating: - Sandisk 16GB Cruzer Contour
First thing I noticed when it arrived is that this drive is much bigger than I expected. Because of the design of the retractable USB adapter, this drive is about twice as long as it should be. It is a very elegant appearance, though its really too big to attach to your key chain. The next problem I had was that Vista did not recognize this as a ReadyBoost compatible drive.

Rating: - Great product, needed a better lanyard
The SanDisk SDCZ8-016G-A75 16GB Cruzer Contour is a great product. I immediately replaced the lanyard. The pros: are it's huge, 16 Gig provided all the room I need to carry important programs and documents anywhere I go.
The Cons: The Cruzer will close while inserting the unit into a PC if you press the back of the unit and not the steel case; this a a bit picky and I've gotten used to the problem but one machine I worked on had only rear facing USB ports.. I was just about to boot the ... Read More
Rating: - affordable fast usb drive
I get 27MB/s read speed and 19MB/s write speed which means it is actually faster than expected. The sliding retractable connector is my favorite part because no cap can ever be lost. It is enhanced for Windows® Vista(tm) ReadyBoost(tm) and includes U3 software. Data encryption is also available. It is very handy and the included leather pouch can be attached to a keyring or lanyard. I'm very satisfied with it.
Rating: - Not well designed
This device performs as advertised but it is large, clumsy and hard to open. It is cool looking though. The thing is so slippery that it often requires two hands to slide it open.
