Pros & Cons
Pros
Sandisk ultra dual drives are the most reliable usb thumb drives i've ever owned. It has a metal casing, with allows heat to transfer away from the circuitry inside faster than with plastic casing. The reversible usb c / usb connectors are clutch for ... Read More
The one characteristic i decided i could ease up on is speed. They are pretty fast, not the fastest, but way faster than cheap usb 2. This is one is definitely worth the money, but then sandisk's usually are. It's up to you.
Cons
I have the same size and capacity from samsung and it never even gets close to being warm. When trying to back-up about 12gb of photos from macbook harddrive, drive overheated and disconnected itself about 8gb in. Eventually had to return and find ano... Read More

Highlights
Quality

Competitiveness
Sandisk drives which are manufactured by western digital are the best flash and sd drives available.
Having said that, i do feel it's generally lower priced than samsung and better than the "bargain" brands i've tried.

Also very slow to eject i’ve had to force eject it more times than not

But as many folks know heat is not the friend of electronics and i likely will be leery of relying on this drive too much for critical data until i see how it holds up over time
