Do you guys prefer having a USB stick or an SD card for media on the go (i.e. Movies, music, documents, etc)?

I currently store my movies and things on an external drive and trying to figure out the best option to take some of these things with me on the go.

I currently store my movies and things on an external drive and trying to figure out the best option to take some of these things with me on the go.

I just use a USB powered portable hard drive. The MBA is small enough that I can easily keep the drive in my sleeve without making it annoying to carry. Though with how much I'm on the road I tend to take a great deal of movies. If I were going for a weekend or something I'd probably opt for an SD card - I suppose the best choice would be for how much media you're storing on it really. Everyone has different needs.
 
I use both, depending on the situation.

Also good to have a backup stick/SD card anyway if the need arises.
