2 GB Stainless Steel USB Key*
The 2 GB Stainless Steel USB Key makes a nice gift for colleagues at work and for your friends at school. For easy access and safekeeping, this unique USB device slips onto your key ring for instant data, which is the whole point of it: the drive that is attached to your car keys is the drive you still have when you are standing in front of someone else's computer. Designed to hold up to 2 gigabytes of data, this USB flash drive is a great gift for employees or for college students.
Stainless steel is why it survives a pocket full of keys. It is shaped like a key itself, slim at a quarter of an inch wide, so it sits flat on the ring instead of catching on everything, and the brushed metal face keeps looking like a tool rather than a toy.
The stainless steel USB drive may be customized to bear initials engraved on its head. When you are presenting it as a favor for an event or to a few of your best buddies at work, that small engraving is what separates one drive from five identical ones on the conference table, and it is what makes the recipient feel the gift was meant for them. The engraving is done in-house by HansonEllis, in business since 1999.
Use the USB drive to store key power point presentations at work or to carry research for school. As a corporate gift, the USB device can be given to employees and customers as part of corporate branding, and it earns its place at conferences, shareholder meetings and public events, where people leave with something they will still be using next semester. It is compatible with Windows 98 and above, Mac and Linux, so it works with whatever machine the recipient already owns.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and give people a drive they cannot misplace.

Which one should I choose
With a flash drive gift, the real question is where it ends up: on a key ring, in a bag, or in a drawer with the others.
| 2 GB Stainless Steel USB Key | Choose it when you want a slim steel drive that lives on the key ring and carries initials engraved on its head. |
|---|---|
| A pen-style USB drive | Choose it when the recipient should also get something to write with and you have room for longer engraved wording. |
| A plain plastic promotional drive | Choose it when capacity and quantity are all that matter and nothing needs a name, a metal body or a key ring. |
If you want the drive to still be in someone's pocket next year, put it on their keys and put their initials on it.
