What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
All-metal casing and huge 512gb storage capacity. Solid to handle and sturdy. You can trust sandisk to deliver a top performance product.
This is my third 1tb dual thumb drive. Great transfer speed,perfect size to add to a keychain.
Works with iphone and android smartphone, also with pc, mac and chromebook. Only problem is that it is difficult to insert the usb-c side into samsung s10, s21 and s23fe phones. Very easy to use with both usb a & c ports.
Cons
Sandisk should be asheamed for selling junk like this. Looks a bit like a scam to me. To get a replacement under warranty requires that you ship it back at your own expense with a proof of delivery.
The write speed is unimpressive, maxing-out at about 7 mib/s, which is far below usb 2. Write speed starts to throttle down within seconds of writing data and will go all the way down to single digit then zero. Read speed is about 115mbs.

Pros considering the 1tb storage of the drive it provides excellent portability on a keyring provides excellent compatibility with both usba and usbc plugs on average the read speed of data from the drive is about 350mbscons unfortunately the drive writes data in spurts
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
One may write data at 150mbs for a few seconds and then nothing at all for a few more seconds
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
On average sustained over the course of transferring 1tb of data i would say that the drive writes at about 40mbs to 80mbs
