Default Need a new geek stick..Reccomendations?

hey guys, i need a new geek stick, (thumb drive, flash drive, whatever you want to call it)

I have about $40 to put into it, but i need a new one, as my current one is physically dying...can't take the jake!

anyways...
i was looking for someting solid, and relatively high capacity.
here are a few of the geek sticks that looked about what i want:
Newegg.com - OCZ RALLY 2 4GB High Performance Dual Channel Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) - Retail
Newegg.com - SUPER TALENT 4GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) - Retail
Newegg.com - CORSAIR Flash Voyager GT 4GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) - Retail

Another thing that's important is speed, as i'll be writing ~700mb to 1gb files often.
(transferring movie files for AV tech class)
i'd rather not use the schools 5,400rpm usb 1.0 external bricks haha

I'd get the OCZ stick. That's my personal preference though. OCZ and Super Talent make good ones. MPC did a review of geek sticks not too long ago, I just can't find that issue, or any of my issues for that matter.



Q6600@ 3.2GHz w/ CNPS9700 | EVGA 780i | 2Gb Corsair DDR2-800 | EVGA 9800GTX 512 Video | 1x WD 640Gb HDD, 2x Seagate 400Gb HDD, 1x250Gb WD | 2x Samsung SH-203B Opticals | Antec 900 | ABS/Tagan BZ700 700W PSU

hahaha i've had great experiences with OCZ.
the sticks in my rig have been great, and are always a brand that comes to mind when i am recommending memory.

haven't owned/used any super talent products, but have heard amazing things about them.
how much of a difference would i notice writing a 1gb file between these sticks?

*searches through MPC collection for answers*
