A large device with USB 2 is unsuitable for most people. Clearly, flagging this up is a good idea, so people don't waste their money.

If you say so :smiley:

The deal is for a USB 2.0 128GB memory stick... Not a deal on the fastest transfer rate memory stick... So you are voting on the wrong reason. People don't know how this site is supposed to work. You are basically saying spend more and get a faster memory stick, well no **** sherlock.... The reason why its getting heat is because it IS a good deal. Thankfully not everyone views this site as a personal deal site and rather see it as a community site which is what it was started for. They can see the bigger picture and agree its a good deal for what it is

I voted cold because I dont see this as a 'deal' (i know others might). I personally wouldnt buy any USB thats 2.0 anymore (regardless of storage size), i have a few lying around the house but they're too slow for me

poor build quality mine split....

pay more and get something that will last

I've got one of these, very flimsy and suddenly stopped working when full of data.
Worth spending a few more quid if you value your data.

This is USB 2.0 (they dont mention that)
....cold :/

Didn't realise Base.com were still going :stuck_out_tongue: My first USB stick was a massive 4GB and cost about £40 :stuck_out_tongue:

I had an older one of these but the write speeds were just awful. Is that still the case?

I remember when 2gb cost this much, thanks guys!

good

I remember picking a few of the 8GB models of this up from Asda when they were reduced to £1.50 a few years ago, always felt alright in the hand. It was dreadfully slow mind, not that it bothered me.

Decent enough deal, but yeah USB 2 and slow. Heat

I like this site, its a sea of calm compared to the daily news, much needed rest:)

i've had 2 of these, lesser capacity, for years and never missed a beat. good value storage if not the best of the best.
