Here's my mainly irrelevant story.
My friend claims to have an 880GB flash drive, which he says he bought from China for a paltry amount of cash. He also claims it to be made by Sony. My attempts to prove him wrong failed, as he claims to have stored 20GB on it and could store more. He refused to believe that this is the world's biggest flash drive to date, and said I was an idiot, and that the Chinese could invent anything. When I asked him to bring it, he said he couldn't since it was his dad's, but the other day I was surprised when something else equally astonishing came up. A 360GB "Kingston DataTraveler" (Attached) He refused to let me use it, benchmark it, or even verify anything. Has anyone ever heard of something like this being possible? ![]() If so, I just got ripped off buying my 1TB external HDD.

That's not 880GB. He obviously knows this since he won't let you test it.

I just thought I'd ask here first before making any claims.

It clearly says 360GB but even that is ridiculous.

I do consider this to be quite helpful when I claim he's wrong.

a 32 gb flash drive in Australia is $337.95 from WoW sight and sound, so why i dont doubt it can exist, a 300+ gb flash drive would be so expensive you would have had to have recently won the lotto jackpot just to afford it

I find it funny that little flashdrives can now hold more gigs then my old computer had (40gigs), and I used that computer from back when I was a computer illiterate little freak to up to just this June.
