LaCie WhizKey
$55.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Easy to insert and pull out of the USB port. Clever design looks striking and unique. Hole allows actual use of the key on a keychain to ensure it is always available.
The Cons:Transfer speeds are slower than other USB keys. In a crowded panel of ports, the design is a hindrance as it can lean up against other wires. Actual exposed end that inserts into a USB port may sit a little loose, depending on the device.
Very similar to the LaCie CooKey, the LaCie WhizKey is a uniquely designed USB storage device that's all about portability and durability. Available in four different capacities up to 32GB, the USB "key" has a few new features that separates it from older versions.
