sandisk or sony?

**g00gy** · January 14th, 2007, 03:17

Well i had the guts to rip open one of my memory sticks. only to find out that it is a fake (it had a samsung flash chip). now i know why it has a hard time being detected by my psp. all of my ebay brought ones are fake and play games and ps1 games with laggy weird problems (unplayabble). ive had this for a year and it has given me hell.

so i ask you this question my humble friends of the homebrew community.

1. what place to get a real memorystick around 2-4gb?

2. Sandisk or Sony????

I haven't compared the two myself, but the general consensus around here is that Sandisk has a much faster access speed that Sony, plus they're cheaper as well.

1.) EB Games, Gamestop for store bought ones or internet bought

2.)Sandisk if you want speed and have little to spend and Sony if your just a fan boy and believe in buying the "Highspeed" memory sticks for more money........

all my mssticks from ebay. to anyone thinking of buying a msstick from ebay DONT unless you want laggy games and weak infrastructure.

i think the msstick is the cause of the probl;em since ive tried 3diffrent psp's and all my mssticks are from ebay and fake so yeknow.
