What USB memory drive(s) do you use, and what size do you think is sufficient these days?

I see no reason not to at least 512MB these days. Prices are real cheap. Even the 1GB sticks are cheap. Wait another few months and the 2GB sticks will drop as well.

It is getting to the point where it is cheaper than RAM.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

I was tempted to get a 64 or 128 MB one since they are cheap like you said, but I think I'll wait for the higher capacity ones to come down in price.

I have a 512, and that's even more than enough for me.

512 is probably more than enough for me also Smile If I really need more storage, I can transfer some files to a remote host temporarily and redownload them later on.

If you go cheap, you won't get speed. There are different speeds of memory chips available for USB flash memory drives.

Spend more and get a 512MB *FAST* memory stick, rather than a 1GB or 2GB stick for the same price, but slow.

Unless all you're planning on doing is saving one word document at a time or you don't care about speed at all.
