Bought a new drive last week (ended up buying a 64 GB Mach Extreme stick). The most difficult aspect is finding a stick that's fast. The actual as opposed to advertised speeds vary wildly. Anything below 20 MB/s isn't really state of the art anymore, and the one I bought gets 60 MB/s. Drives with 100 MB/s are available; after that comes the very-fast-very-expensive USB3 SSD market. If you buy a drive without paying attention to benchmarks, you can easily wind up with a 5 MB/s dud. For what it's worth: I couldn't find a micro usb drive (ie. about as small as the USB port itself) that had great transfer rates. The best I could find was -- I think -- a Corsair stick offering 20 MB/s. If you want 50 MB/s+, like I did, you're stuck with "regular sized" drives, for the moment; all the faster drives I found were even more bulky.
