You have to deal with the Sandisk price over the Sony Quality. You also have to watch out for fakes.

Just a quick question ibjaredu, are there any signs to look for to see if you bought a fake one.

Thier is the capacity rule. And thier are fake seals. For 2gb ms usually if they are above 60 or 70 USD they are real. Buy them from Trusted stores like Amazon instead of Ebay.

So you are telling me instead of buying a 4gb stick, that I should buy 2 2gbs sticks?

well its really up to you . Since isos cant be bigger than 1.8 in might just be worth it to get a 2gb card, but like i said its your choice.

IMO opinion I would go with Sandisk 2GB. If you rip your own games you know you have enough space to rip the game in its entirety versus rippin in chunks on smaller sticks. The Sandisk sticks have a faster read/write speed then sony. Generally Cheaper then sony. But they do have a lil bit less space on them then sony. this isnt an exact figure just a roundabout but the sony 2gb stick might have 1990 MB but the sandisk might only have 1974 MB. Sandisk still has my vote tho just based on the fact theyre a lil bit faster.

Aww man... get the Ultra II series Sandisks

I owned a 1 gig Ultra II
And I got the 2 gig Ultra II
Now im gonna buy the 4 gig Ultra II (dirt cheap on outpost)

The read/write rates are AMAZING when compared to regular ones, everything runs seemlessly, ISO's rip faster/read faster. Running slow games(battlefront gta gangs of london) on 333 with one of these cards gives a turd game a much needed performance boost


Im sorry if this post is a little overzealous, i have one short of a sixer of mickeys in me
