This gold 256GB Kingston USB drive offers you a lot of bling, and storage space, for cheap

Who doesn't want a gold USB drive?

I must get at least a dozen of emails a week from folks asking "Why don't you ever cover deals on gold USB sticks?". Well, it seems Amazon has heard your calls, slashing the price of this capacious 256GB Kingston choice to just £14 - that's quite the bargain for such a large drive.

Having one, big USB drive as opposed to the ever-growing pile of unidentifiable freebies of USB sticks that you've probably got laying around is more convenient than you might think. It means you won't have to go through the arduous task of finding a drive that's big enough for a Windows install or storing a large media library of music or video, for instance. The fact it's gold also means it gives you some much needed bling and street cred, while also being easily identifiable if you do misplace it.

This drive also benefits from USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds, with Kingston quoting it to run up to 220MB/s reads and up to 100MB/s reads, giving you comprable speeds to a snappy Micro SD card. That makes accessing files reasonably quick, which is always pleasant.

If you want to grab a capacious USB drive that also gives you a bit of bling, then this Amazon deal on a 256GB Kingston choice is worth your time.
