FYI I believe all of those ~1TB $10-20 USB drives on amazon are scams- basically set up to trick your computer into showing a terabyte of disk space available, but not actually having that much available if you try to write it all. I was in the market for "largest reasonably priced usb drive" earlier this year and ended up with a 1 TB usb drive for about $80.


I wish some attorney general would buy a bunch of them and then just proceed to sue the shit out of Amazon so hard that Amazon finally gets off it tail and does something.


Does something, like getting a new attorney general I guess.
