The SanDisk Cruzer Titanium USB Flash Drive is the answer for the person on the run. This 512 megabyte feather-light USB 2.0 ( compatible with USB 1.1 ) storage device can be worn around your neck, on a keychain or in your pocket.

Data transfer speed is not a factor for the Cruzer. This model reads at 15MB/sec and writes at 13MB/sec. The titanium coated metal casing provides lab tested crush resistance up to 2,000 pounds. The 512 MB Cruzer can be purchased direct from SanDisk at www.sandisk.com for $159.99
