I'm looking to buy some usb sticks which will mainly be used in tech support for the purposes of removing viruses and booting up various OS's. Therefore, I am looking for the following features:

  • Write protected switch (so that they may be safely plugged in to potentially infected machines)
  • As fast as possible (so that loading, for example, a windows recovery, doesn't take forever)
  • At least 4GB in size
  • Any other features that might be useful for the above purpose

Price is no object but, of course, the cheaper the better.
