i have 200 songs, 600 pictures and 10 mini videos. i did the thing where u put all the files into one folder and it said the size was 2.43 GB. so does that mean i need 2 GB and like a 60 something MB flash drive to hold all of that? can i even split them up? thanks!

Best bet is to obtain a storage media that will hold at least 4GB if you have a 2.43GB folder. You can also use compression tools (WinRAR, WinZIP, etc.) that will help you split the files after compression into smaller files of varying sizes. This you can specify depending on what your maximum storage media is available.

Yeah that means you need more that 2.5 GB and of course you can split them. There is some 4 GB flash drive but for that much money you can get a better solution. like buying a iPod.

it depends on what you want to do with that USB key/flash drive
If you want to do a full backup of your songs and video, using a DVD (max 4.7 GB) is probably a better option
If you want to transfer songs/video to another PC, you can always do this in batches
Even if you have a flash drive of 1 GB, you can do this in 5 batches

you can get them all onto a 4 GB flash drive. They are fairly cheap and so easy. I have two and like much better than a 4.3 GB DVD.

umm i think a larger storage flash drive than just a 2 G will do for you. but i suggest you burn them in a CDR, it take you atleast 4 CDR cds, but atleast youve made a permanent back up of your files.
in flash drives, sometimes accidental deletion occurs,, just learned from experienced^^,)

You can get a 4 gig flash drive
Or you can burn it all to a blank dvd which is way cheaper.
