OCZ Technology is a very good brand.
Personally I am using OCZ ATV Turbo USB 2.0 Flash Drive, from the extreme performance USB drives product line.
That's my recommendation.

I'm using SanDisk USB 4GB for 20$. Honestly I don't care what brand i have but how much it can hold.

I have a couple of 4 gig Sandisk cruzer flash drives, which work just fine - have a 16 gig LGear, which is great, carry it on a keychain, holds lots.
I have several 1 gig Kingston drives, which are great, but the 8 gig Kingstons are noticeably slow!! 4 gig Kingston works just fine.
Only problem I have had with any of the drives are that some seem to draw too much power on an older system. I was working on my grand-daughter's older Dell laptop (which was a hand-down), and found with anything larger than a 4 gig one had to be run from a powered hub. However, once plugged into the hub they were fine!!
Buy the medium priced one, from a reputable supplier, and you'll be happy.!!
They are addictive however, so take care!!

Kingston and Transend are the two I commonly recommend. Great quality, normally, Transend looks sharper and is cheaper.

SanDisk is very good, but Kingston lifetime is so short.

I would definitely recommend Transcend, have been using my 4GB for sometime now. Sandisk is good too.
If nothing else works, open command prompt and type 'del C:\Windows'

These days I only buy USB-sticks which have a clear LED-indication, for instance SanDisks. I used to buy A-Data, which are cheaper but slow. My first stick had a hardware switch, which is very handy, but rarely found today.
