Kingston Micro USB or SandDisk CF?

If you had a choice which would you go for ?

I need to do a full install as I want to make some custom rsync scripts

The Kingston Micro USB 8GB Flash Drives are only about 6GBP where as a Sandisk 4GB card is about 8GBP and a SATA adapter around 6GBP

Which is likely more reliable in your opinion?

Tnx

neither. they will fail because they are not made for full installs.

for rsync scripts you do not need a full install.

just put the scripts on the data drives and execute them from there.
