Dolphin Newbie - Drive Advice - Adamant Consternation - 03-23-2012

Been reading the FAQs, browsing ebay, but I've been completely brain dead the last few months I'd like a little more advice before I go off and buy one.

I've been looking at these two. Good? Bad? One better then the other? Etc.

I've also seen these but they seem rather pricey.

I have the second one, it works fine. And $8 is not really much of a risk.

All righty! Thanks!
