usb sticks

has anyone had a bad experince with usb sticks.
the reason i ask is,the last two days it,s been a small horror story for me.
i have 5 usb sticks 4 toshiba 8 gb and one kingston.
i only got my uno 4k this week all setup for me.
i made two backup,s the same day i got the box.
so i decided to experiment with different images..ie trying to buil the image from the bottom up,installing oscams,which i knew nothing about.
i eventually got a different image in the box to work late last night,but it froze a lot,it was the not my setup as everything worked fine using my setup in a different box.
that led me to believe it was my oscam setup that was problem.
now this morning i had enough messing about with oscam,so i decided to place my original backup into my box and watch some tv today.
my backup on my toshiba would not upload to box,so i decided to get a quick solution and download a full backup from elsewere.
no matter what i did nothing would load for me i was convinced the problem was the box,surley for sticks could not fail!!!!..
i was totaly exhausted tonight and give up..really peep of at this stage..just about to give up when i decided to give the kingston a go.
and guess what the backup worked first time.that was 45 mins ago,the whole day wasted.thank god i made a second backup.
NEVER again will i buy a TOSHIBA stick...
sorry for having a rant but 4 usb sticks failing has me really pissed of.
goes to show no matter what type of box you have a piece of hardware that cost 5 euro can can really mess your head up.
right its really good to spit all that out,im starting to feel better allready.
good night all.:stoned::stoned::stoned:

yea jensen,im still annoyed over it.but i have another problem now..oscam acting strange
