  • SanDisk Cruzer 256GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive

Q: So I could use this instead of an external hard drive to back up my whole computer?

A: Yes if you only backing up about 225gb of data. After formatting you will loose a bit of storage, and you need to leave about 3% free so there is no danger of data loss.

Q: I want to use this USB drive for system image and back up for Window 7.. I need it to be formatted for NTFS. Will it be formatted that way? And will I be able to use it for system image and back up?

A: Yes, you can format it to NTFS, and it is excellent as a system and image backup device (only it is slower than 3.0)...just open the Device Manager and look for your USB drive under the "Disk Drives" area. Right click on that flash drive and select properties, then choose the "Policies" tab and select "Optimize for performance" option. Then you should be good to go.

Q: can I backup my 70 gig pc to this? will it work?

A: Yes, it can store up to 256gb

Q: What is the 2.0 vs 3.0 mean?

A: 2.0 = 480Mb/s (Megabits per second) transfer speed... 3.0 = 4.8Gb/s (Gigabits per second) transfer speed. So... USB 3.0 is 10X faster

Q: Do this have light when plugged in?

A: no light on the flash drive

Q: Why is this specific drive so expensive? I'm shopping a few online, big box stores, and this is by far the most expensive example that I've seen. ie...Staples, Office Depot and eBay...Thanks

A: It's a quality product & that's important to me. I've owned junk before & it's such a pain. Besides, Best buy stands behind thier products.

Q: I need to back up all my stuff on my Mac, so do I need to set up anything for this flash drive to work?

A: You don't need to do anything. Just plug in the flash drive and the system will automatically detect it and it will be ready for use.
