Moser Baer Pendrives

Bought a Moser Baer 8GB pendrive for RS.230/-
Are they good ones? I'm going to use it to high extent, almost 24 hrs a day.
It has a 2 year warranty.

lol. i doubt any pen drive would survive 2 years of constant usage. they are not supposed to be used for this purpose.

lol if it survives 6 months wont be so bad.

 

[Sushubh]

Considering the long warranty, I suppose you can get it replaced whenever it goes bad. So, well... Good luck.

Are you going to use this Pen Drive as RAM (AKA ReadyBoost)?

 

[Sushubh]

If yes, do not bother... ReadyBoost is a joke. I think they discarded it completely in Windows 8.
I hope you did not fall for that joke video from Ankit Fadia promising a performance boost by using ReadyBoost on Windows Vista/Windows 7.

All flash drives have a limited number of read/write cycles after which they will automatically die.

Not using this as RAM(ReadyBoost). I'm going to use with an DVR, so its gonna be 24 hrs. Was using Lexar Jump Drive till now.


Dont you think 230 is very less for a 8GB drive?

 

[manu1991]

No. I had gotten a 16GB Moder Baer drive for 295 /- from shopclues under some special sale.

 

[mreccentric]

oh really, then i hope this one comes for 2 years. is that the thin one or traditional sized pendrives. i suppose those thin ones cost less and so are their lifetime.
