I have a key chain consisting out of only flash drives and a rubiks cube chain ring thingy. And I never lost a rubiks cube. So I won't lose my flash drives :P

Earlier I saw a 64 GB usb stick for $50 or so. I would rather buy 8 of those than just a $1337 512 GB one

I could see this somewhat useful for those people that edit ultra high resolution videos.

i know a few people like that (hollywood film/commercial editors), and they would never trust their files to a flash drive.

It goes without saying that in a few years it will cost no more than $20.  If ever I need 1 TB I'll wait till then.

Actually I have 8GB, which is way too much for me

I also read just now that there are 1tb  2.5" ssd's being released for $600. Its amazing how small storage is getting. Next thing you know we'll have 1tb sd's.
I don't really know where I get it from, but somehow I got the information that SD is in its current form can never take over 512GB. So or they would have to remake it so that it's still ccompatible with the current SD, or they'll ahve to fins a new standard (which is kinda coming up with ssd).

I personally don't need anything more than 2-4 GB for portable storage. I've had a 2 GB flash drive since 4th grade (and I'm in 8th grade now) and it still works fine. A bit slow compared to the "new" ones, though.

*micro sd's :P
* Sorunome runs

And yeah, it is incredible.
1 TB Nano SD. http://rookery.s3.amazonaws.com/3316000/3316302_6c93_625x1000.jpg

But I have a 32 GB flashdrive and I use most of it. Plus I would like this for computer backups, which I need to get something for other then cds...

USB hard drives of 1TB also exist, and they are a lot cheaper than that flash drive. They probably are a lot slower too, but for video, which is in most cases why you would use one in the first place, it should be fine.

I agree with Hot Dog. In 2004, I remember that over here, a 128 MB flash drive costed close to $320. It was insane. Today you can get a 8 GB one for $8. Considering that, if that trend continues, then in 9 years, you'll be able to buy a 3 terabytes USB stick for $1 or so.

The original SD standard had a maximum size of 2GB, so SDHC was released which allowed for up to 32GB, and the newest standard, SDXC supports up to 512GB.
