5.0 out of 5 stars Small & Rugged - Perfect for the keychain, June 10, 2004

By	maxxpwr "maxxpwr" (Virginia) - See all my reviews

All guys have a minimal set of items that are always with them, for me these are: keys, wallet, glasses, and cell phone. Since the number of items in the set is directly proportional to the comlexity of a guy's life, adding an item to the list requires life-altering benefits in return. For example, adding a wedding ring brings with it a wife, 2.7 kids, and one more anniversary date to remember. As convenient an USB drive may be, it doesn't meet the requirement to become a "minimal set item".

So I took a look at the existing 4 items and determined that my keychain is the thing that can be "enhanced" with a USB drive, and for that the small and rugged Micro Cruzer is the best choice out there. At just over 2" long, it is only slightly longer than a standard house key, and that length includes the integrated key chain ring. Combined with .75" width and .3" thickness, it is one of the smallest USB drives you can find on the market.

You can find smaller USB drives out there, but they are simply too fragile. The Cruzer Micro has a brushed stainless clam shell steel body that extends from the keychain ring to the USB connector in one continuous and seamless slab. And over this steel body is a thick plastic jacket that has a slight rubbery texture to it. Two USB connector covers are included, a thick one and a slim one - choose your level of protection. The thick one pretty much sleeves the entire drive and make it impervious to anything this side of tank treads.

Add to this tidy and tough package the speed of USB 2.0, 512MB of storage, and a very bright blue status LED, it's a complete package that simply outdoes any other USB drive out there, including the Cruzer Titanium, which incidentally looks more like a mini cigar sleeve than a proper USB drive. Dont be a poser - be a guy - buy the Cruzer Micro.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solutions for Tight Keychain and Loose Cap, March 17, 2005

By	JL "Techie On A Budget" (Torrance, CA USA) - See all my reviews

For those of you complaining about the tight fit when using your keychain, here's what to do: take out the black neck strap that came with your Micro Cruzer. There is a small metal ring at the attachment end. Take that ring off and attach it between your Micro Cruzer loop and your main keychain. Now your drive can hang freely on your keychain.

For those of your complaining about the loose cap, I put a generous dab of rubber cement inside the cap. Leave it til its fully dry. The cap should fit very snug when reattached. Crude, but works. If it becomes loose again, repeat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sandisk always shows great quality and price via Amazon.com, April 3, 2006

By	V. Abiraj (Trinidad and Tobago) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am an owner of the Sandisk Cruzer Mini 1GB and I am absolutely satisfied with the performance and quality of the product except for some minor issues with the plastic covers becoming slack and falling off after a while. I recently Purchased this Cruzer Micro 512MB and it is just great. Very small and neatly designed to fit into about any USB port. The different coloured skins give a nice finish. Data Transfers are fast with USB 2.0 and overall Quality of the product is excellent. Sandisk Drives also come with encryption software to keep your stuff safe. Amazon also has the best Prices on Sandisk products. Always a pleasure purchasing from Amazon.
