My first computer had a 25MB hard drive that I thought was enormous. 15 years later and I now own a 32GB USB flash drive. I bought the Patriot Xporter XT 32GB flash drive for $149 (after mail-in rebate of $25) from Newegg. With write speeds of 7MB/s and read speeds of 32MB/s, the thing is reasonably fast. More importantly, it’s tiny — about the same size as my Cruzer 2GB USB drive, but with much more storage space. I can now carry large files, movies, music and more with me. The thing can store as much as my laptop!
