Or is there one brand which stands out as being sturdy and a better product?

Some are definitely quicker than others... I'd highly recommend the 64GB Corsair Slider USB3.0 it easily saturates USB2.0 ports and a healthy 70MB/s write, 85MB/s  read USB3.0, all going well, lol.

I'd keep an eye out for refurbished ones as they are A LOT cheaper:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I picked a Lexar one up on Play for £19. I think it's USB 3.0 and so far so good.  :happy2:
