Pros

Samsung galaxy s9 has a built-in sandisk app that lets you transfer photos and other files from your phone to a computer. The drive is small enough to fit in the back of a gb sd card. It is easy to transfer photos from the my files app to the folder w...  Read More

This flash drive has both the a & c connectors and of course conforms to the usb 3 standard. I love how easy it makes switching between machines with type a and then type c or vise versa. One gripe is the construction material is made of thin plas...  Read More



Cons

First one overheat when plug to iphone. Works on ipad but not iphone. Wait 2 weeks for a refund sometimes 3 weeks.

Will not read on either side. Didn't last three weeks. Both now fail to mount. Lost all data.

I know for certain it was not as a result of my negligence. Very poor quality and durability. Pretty disappointing otherwise nice design great use.

I am not paid by anyone, nor a shill for samsung. Be careful there are a lot of businesses selling bad, outdated or incompatible memory thumb drives to unload stock.

Highlights

Quality


Nice transition from the old to the new usb port standard


Good forms with both type-c and usb-a


Sounds strange, but this thing is so small i am afraid of losing it.


2 gen 1 driver performance of up to 400mb/s".

Price


This usb drive checks all the boxes: has usb c and usb a, inexpensive, small and fast.


Great little usb-a / usb-c combination at a great price.

Shipping


Transfer speed is amazing, 45 mins for 300gb on usb 3.


The product shipped fast and works just like it is supposed to.

Competitiveness


Drive is actually 512gb unlike the knock-off 1tb and 2tb drives you see on amazon's top #10 list by no-name companies from china.


I'm not exactly happy that purchasing this is $8 more than some of their other flash drives with the same capacity and speed profile.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I will be upgrading to a new pc soon and the newer pcs have more usbc ports and fewer usba ports so i needed a flash drive that would work on the newer pc and also work on my current pc that only has usba ports


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I know that i could get an adapter but would prefer not to


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Other flash drives are usually in a larger case which on my pc prevents connecting to flash drives to the same side of the pc at the same time


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was only able to get a transfer rate of 60 mbs although the drive advertises a rate up to 150 mbs although this is probably due to my pc port speed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The pivot mechanism appears to be a bit flimsy so this is probably not the type of flash drive you want to carry around in your pocket
