Kingston's DataTraveler Exodia USB flash drive is available in 128GB form for just £6 from Amazon - that's some insane value for money for a handy drive that you can use to transfer files between PCs, update your motherboard's BIOS or reinstall operating systems.

  • Even bigger alternative: Integral Black 512GB USB drive for £22 from Amazon

    • You might be someone who has a lot of spare USB sticks knocking around that were given out for free; I know I certainly have. The problem with those drives though is that their capacities are more than likely in the single digits - my old favourite Kingston one is only 8GB. Getting one with a 128GB capacity like this Kingston one saves you the hassle of plugging and unplugging tonnes of USB sticks in the hunt for one that's of a good size. Keep it by you at all times, and you certainly won't go wrong.

    What's also handy about this Kingston drive is that it's a USB 3.2 Gen 1-capable drive. As confusing as USB naming standards have gotten recently, this means it's a USB-A thumb drive that can offer fast speeds thanks to that 3.2 standard. It's definitely going to be a lot faster than the older USB drives you've got lying around from years gone by, making it another good reason to upgrade.

    This deal just acts as a testament to how affordable flash storage has gotten recently, and it works out to a cost of 4.75p per GB, which is ridiculous value for money. We've seen a lot of storage deals recently, mainly highlighting ones on SSDs and HDDs, but dinkier flash drives are certainly not forgotten. If you're also after some larger capacity drives, I've also highlighted a couple of bigger Integral USB drives - a 256GB option for £10 and a 512GB choice for £22 - now that's really cheap.

    £6 really is peanuts for when it comes to storage, and for that, you're getting the convenience of a USB thumb drive, complete with quick speeds and a solid amount of storage that you can take on the go anywhere.
