Lexar JumpDrive Lightning

Carry your favourite applications, Windows settings, emails, data and more with one of these 2GB USB flash drives.

Price when reviewed: (£37 inc VAT)
Overall Rating
We were also pleased with the build quality, with the drive feeling reassuringly solid. SanDisk claims that the "rugged liquidmetal" casing can withstand 2,000lb of crushing force and has apparently tested this by driving a truck over it. The retractable USB connector is another nice safety touch. All in all, it's well worth the asking price - just make sure you get the new version rather than the bigger, older, identically named one (see www.pcpro.co.uk/links/150_sandisk).
