    I'm looking for a high-quality, long-lasting USB stick?

    I'm looking for a USB stick that's big, lasts a long time and is fast?
    What USB stick do you use - I'm grateful for any tips!

    Bought Corsair Voyager 8GB 15-ish years ago and it still works perfectly. :wink: I also have a Kingston DataTraveler 16GB which is 10-ish yo and still works perfectly. 8GB/16GB these days is quite small, but it's fine for OS installations.

    Why I haven't bothered buying bigger flash drives? Because I have too many 2.5" 500GB hard drives. ;)

    i once found a kingston dataTraveler 8GB. Dont know how old it was, before i found it. but i have it in use for 6 years now and its rock solid.

    They have very high storage volume now.

    And check Amazon LAST reviews.

    Because over the years, i have seen COUNTLESS USB pendrive makers changing the internal ... and selling under the same name.
    So the tester review the first batch ... and when you buy it, it is pure SLOW and unreliable crap.

    Kingston DataTraveler Max (bought on Amazon, so "legit") get good reviews, even on the last batch.
