Go through enough RAM and flash drives, and you'll start to see failures, period... it just happens. The brand that's consistantly had the best customer service when such an unfortunate event occured? Corsair.
Corsair Kick's Ass - they offer great customer services, they have great style (design,colors) to their memory, offers great overclock ability, Corsair speaks for itself with its solid top quality products that last for many years to come, Corsair with a Vengeance!!!! =)
Corsair ram kicks ass because of the quality of their ram and especially because of the service and support Corsair provides if you have problems or bad ram.
Corsair's RAM kicks ass because it is the fastest, tightest timed, bulletproof memory that money can buy. And it looks like a Terminator, a Cylon, Twisted Metal, and The Brave Little Toaster had a Castrol Syntec infused orgy and produced this as offspring 9 clocks later.
Corsair kicks ass because of the attention to detail and desire to serve the customer they posses. I love being able to read about a problem someone is having here and elsewhere, and a corsair rep posts to help resolve the situation and make sure the customer is taken care of properly.
Corsair was one of the first, and continues to lead in the market's of enthusiast parts and supplies. RAM, Power Supplies, you name it. If it helps your system go faster, they offer it for sale.
