Looks like a pretty good unit, although as much as I use my "noname" unit (which is quite frequently) I can't say that I've hurt it at all...
I've had it go through the washer, been dropped many times and it has had a lot of pocket abuse and it still woks 100%...
(This one to be exact)
I added a heatsink though, primarily for the "because I can" factor plus it works god as a handle...

I use a SanDisk Cruzer Titanium because the mounts for keyrings kept breaking on my other drives (which all had plastic casings)
