This is how all flash drives should work ... right out of the wrapper it's ready with no intrusive software. It's just amazing how you can store 8 gigabyes on such a little device. Just think, that's 2 full-length movies on a device you can carry in your pocket. HP is the best!

This is a great product for the price. The body could have been sleeker but at the end it's the storage capacity that matters. I've not yet used it that long to comment on the life of this product.

Best Price for any 8 GB Flash Drive

I am a HP fan, so I stick with their products. This flash drive was not available in my local BB store, so I had to order it online. The cheapest other 8 GB flash drives available in the store were close to or over $30, so value wise, it is a very good deal. My total cost for this including tax was $18.33.
This is not a "true" 8 GB flash drive... I think the true size is around 7.44 GB.
In comparing it's outside dimensions to that of several 1 GB PNY flash drives that I have, this 8 GB HP flash drive is close to 1 inch shorter, and it's depth is almost half. I was quite surprised to see the size of this when I opened up the package. Because of it's tiny size, it could easily become lost, but it's size would also make it very easy to carry in one's pocket or purse. It does have the keyhole chain on the end of it, but the cap is clear, which could become easily lost. I took a permanent red magic marker and drew a smiley face on both sides of the clear cap after I had dropped it on carpeting and couldn't see it. :-)
I wouldn't heisitate to purchase another one. Just remember to always scan all new USB Flash Drives for viruses/spyware before using them... something many people don't do.

I bought this flashdrive because I needed it for my Computer Apparel class. When I got to class I realized we used Mac computers. I had saved some files on the drive from a Windows computer and didn't want to lose the files. Luckily it saved both the files I needed for class and the ones I had on there already. This drive is really easy to use and it has a light that tells you when it's busy.

This 8 GB USB drive was a great deal at $17.99. It arrived promptly from Bestbuy.com. It is small ( 2 inches) but it works great. It has a hole on the end to attach a lanyards or cord but no cord is included. There is also no way to keep the cap from getting lost since there is no spot to put a cord on it. Overall it is a great value and works just fine.

Its a perfectly useful flash drive. 8GB for 17 dollar is about as good of a deal as you can get. Plus it has no bloatware which some drive makers still put on their drives.

A:AnswerHP USB flash drives can store a wide variety of file types on the same drive. They do not all need to be the same.
Depending on the type of virus scanning software you have, it should give you an option to scan USB devices. I recommend contacting the manufacturer of your scanning software for more information.
