Flash drives have become, in the span of a mere decade or so, one of today's most essential pieces of business equipment. They're almost as common around the office as pens and staplers, and many office employees could not do their jobs without one. So when it comes to business gifts, personalized flash drives make contemporary and practical advertisements for businesses and organizations of all types. If you're planning on purchasing personalized flash drives for your next advertising campaign, you have a large selection of styles to choose from. The type that you select to imprint your business information on should reflect the nature of your business and clientele. The most popular types of personalized flash drives include: 1) Classic drives: These are traditional "stick-shaped" devices (frequently referred to as "memory sticks"), usually between two and three inches in length. They may be made from aluminum, plastic or even specialty materials such as bamboo wood. They fit in the palm of your hand and are outfitted with a USB connector on one end. They typically come with a removable cap which protects the connector when the device is not in use. They tend to be rectangular in shape, but may also have rounded edges or look more like an oval. They are easily transported from place to place. Classic styles are an excellent choice in promo gifts for almost any kind of business or group. 2) Pen drives: These little devices are fabulous, multi-functional items for anyone's office or desk. They look like ordinary pens, and even write just like them. The only difference is that on the end opposite the ink tip you'll find a USB connector underneath a cover which blends in with the rest of the pen. These memory sticks can be carried around and stored like regular pens. 3) Bracelet drives: Here is a convenient way to ensure that you don't lose or misplace your memory stick: just wear it. Bracelet drives are worn and look just like bracelets, but instead of a regular clasp style opening/closure, the two ends snap together by way of a USB connector. When you're ready to download or upload, simply unsnap the bracelet drive to expose the connector. Snap it back together when you're finished and it becomes a fashion accessory once again. 4) Keychain drives: Here is another great way to conveniently carry around your data. These keychains house USB connectors and attach to any ordinary keychain so you can carry them around just like a key. Your data will stay as close as your car and house keys. 5) Swivel caps: Are you forever losing the caps from your memory sticks? Here's the perfect solution for the lost-cap problem. Swivel cap personalized flash drives look like classic-style memory sticks, except the caps are attached to the device by a single rotating hinge. When you need to download or upload, just swivel the cap to expose the connector. The cap stays attached while the device is in use. Swivel the cap back over the connector when finished to protect it from damage. No more lost caps! 6) Credit Card drives: These are the thinnest promotional memory sticks you can purchase. They are designed to mimic a credit card in size and shape. They are just millimetres thicker than a regular credit card, and slip easily into a suit pocket or inside a wallet. The connector folds out when in use and can be folded back in, flush with the card, when not being used for easy storage and carrying. Besides being convenient, credit card USB flash drives offer another distinct advantage when it comes to advertising. Some company logos are too big to print on a standard memory stick. Credit card drives, on the other hand, have a larger surface area for printing. Not only can they accommodate bigger logos and printing, they can also be imprinted with photos.
