    I have many flash drives. Some are difficult to open, some are flimsy and I hesitate to use them for that reason. Many of my flash drives are not easy to take along in my purse or backpack, BUT this one is always where I attach it. I will only buy the PNY Monkey Tail flash drives !!

    My daughter always seems to need two or three of these for the back to school season- so, I usually buy one or two anytime I see them on sale. and then just keep them handy for when she says she needs to go shopping for the same item. -I just pull them out and say Here you Go! strategy still has not kept her away from new computers and tablets though.

    A handy flash drive

    I use a lot of flash drives -- mostly for storing MP3 files that can be played on my car stereo. I find PNY is a very dependable brand. This version of an 8GB drive has an extending plastic tail that can be used to attach the drive to a backpack or messenger bag. I do, however, wish the USB insertion end could be covered. The price was definitely right.

    Nifty USB Flash Drive

    I bought this 8 GB flash drive for my middle school-aged son to use for schoolwork, etc. The flash drive has a flexible "tail" that's great for hanging on his backpack. I think the design of this particular USB flash drive will also make it less likely that my son will lose it, compared to many other USB flash drives that I've seen in the stores.

    I love this USB drive. I put it on my key chain and always have a USB drive handy. It is great for the gym as the machines there let you save your records to a USB drive - what better than the one attached the key chain that already has your membership card on it? It's pretty secure on the key chain and so far has given me no problems.

    Meets the need at a good price. Really like the curling 'monkeytail' - makes it easy to keep handy. Would buy another.

    Not much to say about it, its a great little USB drive for a great price. The monkey tail design is unique and makes it easy to grab. I'm using several of these to display images on wall mounted TV's, and they haven't given me any trouble.

    I prefer to use PNY for all of my small storage needs. I have at least 5 flash drives for different projects between work, school, and personal uses. I've never had an issue with lost data or malfunctions of any kind. Additionally, I easily transfer information form one computer to another.

    This PNY Monkeytail USB Flash works as it's supposed to. It looks great and is easy to manipulate. It's a PNY product, so it's reliable. The 8 gb is more than sufficient for what it's intended for. The only problem is that I wish it was a USB 3.0 instead of just 2.0.

    I just went by this blue hooked-tail flash drive when I was thinking about something to store my media files. It's not so small to miss somewhere. The hook is a fancy design for me. It has an approx. 3 MB downstream speed on my old laptop. Pretty good for daily use!

    This was used as a bootable USB storage device so I could load an Operating System quickly on a PC that doesn't have a CD/DVD ROM drive. I was able to complete the task and it worked quite well, I needed vanilla and I got vanilla.
