Super Fast SanDisk - Extreme Pro 256GB USB 3.1 Fla
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The SanDisk - Extreme Pro 256GB USB 3.1 Flash Drive - Black is very fast! I now own two of these and I am always using them at home and at work. I would highly recommend the SanDisk - Extreme Pro 256GB USB 3.1 Flash Drive - Black. Keep in mind that at the time of this posting BestBuy price matches against other online retailers. This can save money as other retailers may throw this on sale more often. Spec wise: I work in IT and I must say I really like the construction of the USB device. Please note that if you have a small work surface this USB device does stick out just a tad longer than most USB flash drives. The metal construction of it though makes it ideal for keeping it in your pocket so as long as one remembers it is in their pocket. Warranty: Lifetime Warranty! Keep this in mind as most USB flash drives do not offer this type of warranty. With this being said, please don't forget to register the warranty when you first get it as it would make the process easier should something happen later down the road. So as long as your careful with the flash drive you shouldn't have any issues. Note: This flash drive is backwards compatible with USB 3.0, 2.0 etc. However, the speeds of the USB flash drive will depend on what type of USB slot you currently have the USB in -results will vary based on hardware used. All in all I'm trilled with this purchase! I got this USB flash drive on a great sale. Keep your eyes out on other retailers and have BestBuy price match it for you. You will really like your new purchase!

Not as fast as advised, but still fast.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Transferring a 9GB 1080p movie file On my 2020 laptop I get around 380 MB/s Read Speed and 320 MB/s Write Speed. That is with a Western Digital SN730 SSD and a Intel i7-10750H. Both 3.2 Gen1 and 3.2 Gen2 ports produced the same speeds. On my old PC from 2010 with a Samsung HDD and i7-2600K I get about around 100 MB/s Read/Write Speed via USB 3.0 and 20MB/s via USB 2.0 Obviously speeds will vary depending on system, hardware integrity and the such but you likely wont reach speeds of 420/380. Something like 350/300 is what you should probably expect and thats still plenty fast. Comes with SecureAccess on the drive to protect your files in a "vault" but you dont have to use it, nor do you get a prompt to. Also comes with a 1 year code for RescuePRO that you can download, allows you to recover deleted files. Plugs right into my Sony Bravia and plays/fast forwards all 1080p content perfectly. I dont have any 4K digital movies to test. Make sure to price match, as it can be found much cheaper than on BestBuy.com

My first solid-state flash drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speed is decently fast for me on reads and writes. My purpose was to offload from my cell phone large files that run in the GB size. I attempted to use an OTG device because of the USB C connector, but could not get the phone to recognize this drive. Instead I transferred the files to a computer temporarily, then to the flash drive. The casing is metal-like unlike other thumb drives with plastic casing. Runs rather cool while attached. Got this during Black Friday season. Did not want to wait for the price to drop.

Little speed demon!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure why so many reports of issues with this flash drive - I've had it for a while now and I've had ZERO problems with it. It's a little speed demon with storage for days! I've got a Linux distro installed on it and the balance of the space being used for persistence - I've not had problem #1 with it and I use it as my primary OS drive on the laptop I'm running it on.

Loverly Pawty Favor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is fast. Period. Click. Watch. Done. Not quite as fast as my SSD drive, but not far behind. I love that I can slap my Pro Tools files on it before I hit the road for work without having to wait a long time for the files to transfer. There's always last minute movies, songs, and work files you want to make sure you have with you. Plug it in, drag the files, and watch it work. Love it. The only thing I don't like is that it got kind of hot while in use. It wasn't too hot to pick up, just hot enough to warrant some concern for what's inside getting messed. I would still recommend it, and I plan on getting more of the 256GB to replace or duplicate my external hard drives.

FABULOUS FLASH DRIVE!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive reads and writes at a great speed. I can now keep "sensitive" material on the drive, work on it when needed, and keep the material in my pocket. Older drives just didn't have the read/write speed. I LOVE THIS THING!

256GB USB 3.1 with SSD inside
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is fast and looks nice. It's double the price of other 256GB USB 3.0 drives. I haven't used it too much, but handy to have. It's not as fast as I imagined (no PC parts ever are). Nice specs, hopefully the sizes will increase and the prices & speed will decrease.

Q: QuestionI have a Mac with USB 3.0 ports. Will this work for me or do I need a Flash drive that is 3.0?
Asked by Shirly.
