But wht drudge has suggested are not branded anyway.

Branded one's are just the double the price that he has quaote and I did buy a LG Pen Drive 1GIG for Rs.4700 a 4 months back.

there are cheap quality stuffs @ ritchie street, they are reliable btw, my frnds did purchase some from there and later in just 2 weeks they met with many problems over the USB's and 512 , you can maximum store about 400 or upto 450 not as they mention, thats why when ur going for USB above 512 mb, so please go for branded one's do check up Digit mags for some reviews before you go for them.

There are some USB's which come with MP3 Players. You can even have a eye over them.

I would suggest you to buy an external 2.5" HDD instead of an USB Stick. It has more advantages and costs just around Rs 3800 for a 40 GB HDD along with casing.

Default connecting external hard drive

xternal hard drive is connected to your usb port in your pc,if your USB port is 2.0 than the data transfer speed is also high.Now i ball has released 4 gb portable hard drive costing cool 9000 rs, it can be connected to computer though USB port to laptop or desktop pc.

seagate has released portable HDD in 40 gb and 80 gb segments they can transfer data from hd to pc and vice-versa at max speeds of 480 Mbps.But I don't think so that it is availiable in India, its availiable online.

Recently I have purchased an Odyssey 256MB pendrive at Rs.850/- only whereas the marked price was around 2k bucks (sorry..don't remember the actual printed MRP). It's sleek, stylish (rose petal like red coloured) & gives good result.

I brought a Transcend 256 MB Pen/Flash Drive in Rs.900 three day back and the best part of it is that it has a life time warranty...Atleast the cover said so...

Transcend 1GB USB Drive costs 1900\- here in Hyderabad.
You can even consider buying an external casing if you have a spare HDD.
