Looking for new USB 3.0 stick(s)

Drown

Hi everyone,

 

in the last few months, two Kingston USB sticks have died on me and I'm looking for new ones. I want something that is reliable, and that won't break after a couple of months for no reason!

 

I live in Canada, and would like it from Amazon if possible. I don't mind ordering from other retailers if it's really worth it though.

 

I'm not looking for the most performant thing ever, I only use them as backup and also as bootable drives for Windows and Linux.

 

As for the capacity, anywhere from 16GB/32GB is fine, I don't really want a 64GB one as I'd rather have 2-3 smaller ones. Not a big fan of putting all my "eggs in the same basket" after my recent badlucks!

 

For the budget, I don't really have one, I don't mind paying a bit more for some quality.

 

Note For obvious reasons, I want to avoid going with Kingston.

 

Thanks for the help.

I'm using a pny 128gb turbo 3.0 and it's awesome.
