Branded Memory Sticks
Pick a size. At the heart of every memory stick is a flash memory chip (the thing that stores the data) and this comes in a wide range of sizes typically starting at 64MB and then increasing though 1GB to 16GB. Larger sizes up to 64GB are available but they are rarely used by the promotions industry because of their high cost. The typical size of a branded memory stick is 1GB or 2GB.Branded Memory Sticks
So many different shapes. Wrapped around the core flash memory chip and "chip controller" is a moulding, typically plastic, that protects the memory chip. This moulding determines the overall shape and style of the memory stick and there are literally hundreds of standard mouldings available to choose from. The most popular style of moulding used for branded memory sticks is the "Twister" model. Its popular because it's small, there is no cap to lose, its available in a wide range of colours and its looks great printed up.Branded Memory Sticks
Can I get them cheaper? The smaller memory size you select for your branded memory sticks the cheaper they will be because it's the size of the memory and not the style of memory stick that largely determines the cost. Memory chips are also rated for speed (data transfer speed) and generally the faster the chip the more it will cost. One thing to avoid is Grade B or recycled chips. These will reduce your cost but they are prone to high failure rates.Branded Memory Sticks
How quickly can I get them? The typical lead-time is around 10 days but if you're in a hurry we carry UK stock of the most popular branded memory sticks we sell and these can be printed in the UK and delivered within 48 hrs.
