I'm downloading the Spurs playoff games to my computer, but I noticed the first one im downloading, game 2 vs Denver, is 1.03 GB.

So I figured I better get a USB flash drive to just save em to.

Now do they make like a 20 GB one, that you could save all the games to?

Thanks for the help.

Specifically flash drives...yes, larger ones are made.

But if you don't need it as small as a flash drive, you might want to go with a slightly larger portable HD.

Ok so i could go to an officemax per se, and get a like 20 GB flash drive?

Id prefer a USB due to my space being limited alot.

Id also like to see if i could download the games to a DVD sometime down the road.

I see an 8 GB flash drive (2" square) at Officemax (I tried, KEDA, I really did) for $140.

I would check out some of these portables, though...much more capacity and seriously, not as large as you'd think.

Thanks Johnny you are awesome.

I think I will go with the portable, it says "fits in pocket"

Shoot that works for me. 120 gbs too. that would work with all the playoff games from this year, and if they ever make available, the games from 05 and 03.

They might have some good deals as well!
