PEN DRIVE - ultimate value for money

Respected advanced super ultimate techies,

Well...!!!

OBJECTIVE:

Purchase of a Pen Drive of 1 GB in Kolkata, India

BUDGET:

Rs 4000-5000 (a bit flexible if getting value for money)

REQUIREMENTS:

a. Company should be best in class (I have heard the name of kingston; transcend; zion etc but i want real best).

b. To give an example; it should be as like we go for APC for UPS; Antec for SMPS; Intel for processor; google for search; HP for printer...a real best company's pen drive.

c. It should minimum be of 1 GB size.

d. Maximum possible warranty period.

ADDITIONAL COMMENT:

Not sure but is it possible to get something like 2 GB or 5 GB pen drive within Rs. 5000-6000 range in Kolkata India....????????

CRITICAL COMMENT:

why did i address the question to super duper techies and not to dear forum members in general...bcz i personally believe only a super ultimate crazy geek (who loves eats dreams technology) would be using pen drive that costly...

CONCLUSION:

ALso if any one would like to share, comment, add, suggest, advice; u r more than welcome and its more than appreciated...

Thanks friends

cheers sunando

See on Service and Warrenty, rather than company.

The quality depends largely on how the user is using the product. Also another important thing is the location of the service centre (Specially in kolkata) and the warrenty. Now from my personal experience in college the
IOMEGA pen drives are very durable( I have dropped it thrice in my lab from my hand, plugged into the college server and recovered it after two days holiday(our server never shuts down unless a servicing is required), formatted at least 20 times in the last two monts and it is still working without any problem). Mine is 512MB and costs around 2500 without VAT. You can ask the following shops at Ganesh Ch. Avn(Chandni chowk metro)

1. Eastern Logica (Offers best price but sometimes out of stock)
2. Saboo Computer( Huge stock but may be Rs.50-100 costlier)
3. Balaji Solution (It is at Kamalaloy centre, a birt far from G.C.AVN).

Wish u happy hunting.
