Consider This Scenario
Many students have found the convenience of taking an online or distance learning class rather beneficial. However, for some students, internet access is sometimes slow or limited. For example, soldiers fighting in Afghanistan are eligible to work on their college degrees via online courses. However, many have found that their online connection is often limited, making meeting deadlines a difficult task. However, flash drives can allow for a distance learning course to be preloaded complete with notes, lectures, spreadsheets, and assignments.
The student could work on their homework any time a computer is available, without having to depend on internet access. Later, when internet access is detected, the student can turn in their completed assignments. Rather than a CD that could malfunction and is not rewritable, the easily transportable flash drive can better withstand the elements. Colleges like Thomas Edison State University have recently incorporated flash drive versions of distance learning courses into their curriculum to better serve their students with limited internet access.

Looking for USB drives, 32mb or so for $2 each.
Thanks Cary,
Small capacity custom USB flash drives is something we get asked about quite a bit at CFgear. From 32MB custom USB flash drives all the way down to very small 4kb web keys, CFgear is your home for small capacity custom USB flash drives.
One point we always try to make with our ever expanding customer base is what I like to call the VCR scenario. Have you tried to buy one lately? They are hard to find and literally cost more than a DVD player in most cases. The same thing is true with a 3.5″ floppy disc drive for your computer. If you are like me you still have VCR tapes and maybe An old DOS 3.5″ floppy drive.
The same analogy holds true with very low capacity custom USB flash drives. They are difficult to find and very few companies make them any longer, as the profit for the manufacturer is in the more mass marketed 2GB to 16GB custom USB flash memory and controllers.
Thanks for the question Cary. We will be in touch soon.
we are a native american tribal college and we are wondering if you have any overruns, overstock, misprints or anything along those lines that your company would be able to gift us (perhaps a tax right off for your company)? if not, what would be a quote for 500, the least expensive 2-4gb? thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
I’m looking for prices for 25-50 USB Flash drives (1Gb) with my company logo printed on it
Please reply with a price list and ordering times
Thanks Mike!
We will be in touch soon to discuss several options with our custom USB flash drive options. The Swivel drive is one we would recommend that is one of our most dependable and actually is available on ANY color known to mankind!
Thanks again for choosing CFgear as your custom USB flash drive provider!
Can I please have the exact RGB color of the silver, red, purple, gold, and blue colors? I would like to make design to put on my flash drives where the background color of the image blends in with the flash drive color, for a seamless look.
Thanks Cool Folder!
One of the workhorses of the CFgear army of custom USB flash drives, the pedaltothemetal drive can stand up to the toughest of marketing challenges. From McDonalds, Burger King, Audi and Heineken, you will be in good hands choosing this custom USB thumb drive from CFgear.
Thanks again for choosing the industry leader in all things USB. We will be in touch soon to finalize your custom USB flash drive project.
Thank you! Your response was very helpful! I have a few more questions:
1. Can the Pedaltothemetal spin 360 degrees? (If so that is awesome!)
2. I see the lowest size listed in 256MB. Is 128MB available? I would only be interested if it is not too much of a hassle and the price is a bit less.
3. Is it less expensive to only have a logo printed on the front of the back (not both)?
4. If I order some flash drives now but find out later that I need more, can I get maybe get an order number and just purchase more flash drives with the same design?
5. Is there a minimum order number?
6. I am designing an image for the flash drive now. I have the maximum dimensions from the web page (Front: 45mm x 13.5mm Back: 24.5mm x 13.5mm). Do you know what the resolution is (in pixels/inch or pixles/cm)? If not I will just use the standard 72 pixels/inch
Finally, I would just like to thank you for your time. Your response was very informative. I was extremely impressed by the timely manner in which you responded in.
Cool Folder: Here are your answers.
1. YES
2. 128MB is available
3. Slightly less expensive to do just one side versus two.
4. YES
5. 25
6. The best bet with designs or artwork is to simply send us a vectorized version of your artwork and we can proof the image for you so you can see how it looks on your drive.
Thanks again, and great questions!
We need your price for at least 1000 512 Mb swivel USB flash drives. Thanks.
Thanks Steve.
As far as the best value for your dollar, no one compares to CFgear. Based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, we have very low overhead and that allows us to spend more on securing warehousing and production right here in the Midwest, as well as partner with the top technology suppliers in the world. Combined this gives CFgear the unique ability to turn orders for custom flash drives in days, not weeks, while utilizing the biggest and best components in our products. Toshiba, Samsung, Micron, Intel and Hynix semiconductor are just a sample of the brands you can trust from CFgear!
Congratulations on choosing THE industry leader Steve. We will be in touch soon!
