Judgement Time!!
Hey guys,just the other day my transcend 8gb pen drive stopped working,it is not responding in any computers,no light coming in the pen drive,so i need to buy a new pen drive....now the last time i bought this pen drive was in 2008..when it was about 1000 bucks...so my budget this time for a 8gb pen drive is about 900...here is my problem...my friends told me about this usb 3.0 which is twice as faster than usb 2.0...i checked with my motherboard & it supposedly supports usb 3.0...i even saw the blue ports at the back...
But my usage is generally in my college computers to upload presentations,projects etc...i also use it to watch movies by connecting the pen drive to my lcd...but i guess the lcd has 2.0....so is it worth buying a 3.0 over 2.0 seeing my usage...i use it in college computers which have 2.0 ports...so worth spending extra on it??Also i need a relatively fast pen drive...
I also need a 16gb pen drive...this is for my dad...he doesn't have 3.0 ports...so i need a usb 2.0 based pen drive...my dad has used san disk pen drives before which are very tiny...but i noticed it to be one of the slowest pen drives ever,it would take ages to upload files...so pls NO SANDISK(Unless the scenario has changed)...the budget is about 1000 bucks..
Both the pen drives should have good after sale service...i need good warranty with it...i heard corsair is good in this,but pls help.....
Hope i have made my case clear,pls help...
ps:-Is there any chance,my transcend pen drive can be saved...there are some vital data in it...the warranty expired
