Any decent brand, don't think ive ever seen a flash drive die because it was used too much.

Must have USB 3.0 and at least from these brands.

Klevv neo s32 128GB USB 3.2 (evetech special R199)
SanDisk
Kingston
Verbatim

Transcend is also decent.

Tor usage eh. Understandable.

Be sure to use Truecrypt 7.1 for data encryption and not any later versions, with AES256 and Whirlpool.

I use the Kingston Ironkey secure drive. Bought one for R4k for the 128Gb version fro these guys a year or so ago:

Kingston IronKey D300 128GB USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A Black USB Flash Drive

Kingston IronKey D300 128GB USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A Black USB Flash Drive and other Kingston products available at FirstShop South-Africa. Price, availability and reviews for Kingston IKD300SM/128GB

Sandisk, been running a live distro of some sort off a 16gb sandisk for years. Handy as hell.

Have been using an Adata for years to run Tails OS. The OS does not seem to push the drive hard very hard so it has lasted. Any known brand name should do.

I will be upgrading the drive sometime to USB3. My main criterion will be a slim fit rather than a specific brand.
