Hi,

I had a Crucial Gizmo Jr USB 8Gb drive fail, and claimed a replacement
one on their lifetime warranty. I think even top quality ones can fail
so going for a strong brand with a guarantee at least means you get a
replacement if it fails. They were good about honouring the warranty -
having used the drive for several years it was quite battered but they
still replaced it with a new one.
