Both types allow encrypted safety but only the Cruzer will allow you to work from the drive to make any computer appear as if it is your own. I have two (2) 16GB Cruzer USB drives as well as one (1) backup Sandisk USB drive.
It is preferable to buy a drive as large as one's budget will allow. Plugging in the USB Cruzer makes any computer you use just like the computer you have at the office or at home. This way the information can be encrypted and/or store applications and documents you may need to carry back and forth between your home system and a work system. Pick up a USB drive like the new Cruzer USB drives. If you rely on form-filling software programs, back those up extremely frequently. Should the computer be used for work purposes either out of an office or as a personal business, I would recommend backing up the drive more frequently, say a couple of times a week. If you are a home-user for pleasure or play, I'd say backup the drive about 2x a month. It is important to remember to backup your drive frequently. This way, if anything happens to the notebook's drive, I can restore it back to the computer without any problems. Immediately upon setup of the new computer (just as I had with the previous one) I immediately backed up everything, operating system and all on the new 1.5TB hard drive. This past Christmas, DH and his family got together to purchase me a new Dell Studio 1745 notebook with 17.3 screen and a WB external 1.5TB hard drive. The first is a 500GB drive, which did wonders on the previous Gateway model that was dying a slow pain-ridden death & driving me up the wall because it kept crashing. The one sure fire way to save your original factory settings on a new computer or an old one is to purchase an external hard drive such as the ones made by Western Digital.
