Review: SWISSMEMORY™ USB MiniTwist 512MB

There is nothing quite as satisfying as knowing that the CD-RW has finally been replaced as the most convenient way to store and transfer ~500MB worth of data and files. Okay, a CD-RW holds a little more than that, 650MB to be specific, but that isn't the point. Nowadays, we have solid state, nearly indestructible USB flash memory devices that fit neatly on your key chain between the home and car keys.

News flash....

...I couldn't resist that subject line. Flash drive, news about it....get it?
I wonder what would happen if we did a controlled large file transfer using stop watches on these drives. When you get into large file sizes, data corruption and error correction code (ECC) become issues to contend with. Is it worth doing a test with the devices on hand Silverstrand? :stupido3:

 

i just noticed something,
i thought it was a misprint, but actually it isn't. Layard or Lanyard(lan-yard)
lan·yard also lan·iard Audio pronunciation of "lanyard" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lnyrd)
n.
1. Nautical. A short rope or gasket used for fastening something or securing rigging.
2. A cord worn around the neck for carrying something, such as a knife or whistle.
3. A cord with a hook at one end used to fire a cannon.
so we now all know :|

 

And what a useful lifesaving tip that was. Thanks for the heads up Unholy :|

 

lol, i thought i would let u's know. Some ppl might see it as a mistake.

 

Oh my.

It's probably the closest he's going to come to providing us one. We should savor it and perhaps seek out more words of wisdom.

 

Unholys Words of Wisdom: Episode 2 - "Paperbag man rules all cheese" The pilot episode was a hit, then the series went downhill

 

its pfb not Paperbag Man, and its abreviated to Paper Bag Man!
there was not second episode, only the pilot

 

You know why there wasn't a second episode?

 

because i was to lazy to make it
