>>58912756

The current brand of USB's im using is Emtec. Anyone ever heard of them?

I have that stick actually. I dunno what to say other than it works.

i have a SanDisk for 7 years now 8 GB it served me for hours on end

im actually fucking impressed that its still working

i used it EXTENSIVELY in my tv for watching movies ... sometimes it was on randomly for a day or two

i also forgot that i had it plugged into my pc and i was too lazy to get it out

now its in my car and it survives ice cold weather somehow ...

if it doesnt break this year i might give it away to some museum

Kingston

I have that one in the pic, don't know if it's bad, but it gets really fucking hot, even when plugged in a TV, so there's that

The store is a few hundred meters away from my house and all they stock USB wise are the cheap shitty ones, Samsung, Sandisk and Toshiba unfortunately.

Kingston definitely came to mind along with Transcend

>8GB USB-stick from 2009

How much was it back then?
I don't really remember the prices.

The USB2 versions didn't. I have two USB3 versions and one is great, the other just draws power.

not that guy but a 16GB transcend stick cost me 60 dollars in 2009, its still working to this day. It was thrown around and kicked for the 3 years that I used it in high school, I used it every day. Now it's plugged into my car's head unit and full of music.

I can't imagine any company could fuck up a USB drive. My friend has a 128gb Duracell and it's served him well.
