Never has there been a better time to invest in USB flash storage. Much to the chagrin of memory chip makers, the market has taken a nose-dive in the past year resulting in memory prices that are at an all time low. So while the memory market continues to struggle, now is the time to pick up that beefy RAM kit, or as it pertains to this review, upgrade that crusty low-capacity USB key you've been getting by with.
Hoping to separate itself from what's become a crowded product line, Super Talent stuffs a generous 16GB of storage capacity into the smallest USB stick we've ever seen. As part of Super Talent's refreshed Pico series, the company's 16GB Pico-C USB flash drive isn't just small, but also promises speedy transfer rates, a capless, rugged exterior that's water resistant, and in this case an attractive nickel finish. Follow along and see if this tiny drive has what it takes to leave a big impression.

Typically when purchasing a USB key, it's up to you to provide a lanyard, if desired. For a drive this small, we consider this less of a luxury and more of a necessity, as there isn't much to look for should you misplace the drive. Kudos to Super Talent for not only including a little lanyard, but a chain, clip, and keyring, giving end users a variety of options for toting around this miniature key.
