I normally don't purchase thumb drives with huge storage amounts, but this Flash Drive is great for storing huge amounts of data. Also transferring data to this flash drive is fast but transferring files from this flash drive to a PC using the USB 3.0 port is even faster. It's a great product for about $70.

Love this item. Unlike other flash drive devices, this one is made from metal not plastic, making it extremely durable and long lasting. Ultra fast 3.1 transfer speed at 180 MB a second plus 4K UHD capability makes downloading streaming media a breeze.

This is a nice drive. I don't think it's as fast as the packaging says, but it is fast and it's very solid. There's very reason to believe it can withstand more than everyday bumps and drops.

Lots of space for, in my case, music and pictures. Obviously easy to carry around and data transfers are fast. I have used PNY before and find the quality to be very good. It is amazing how much data I can get on this thing

Not a bad price for 256GB. Its a USB drive and it's worked great so far. It has heft to it and feels solid, not dainty like some of those plastic ones.

This USB 3.1 drive is heavier than expected, lending to a feel of higher quality. I'm not sure if it's metal or ceramic, but the weight and feel are top notch.
It's backwards compatible to USB 3.0 and 2.0 (with caveats). The performance over 3.1 is excellent and competes against my Samsung T5 in convenience and portability.
Transferring files work great, liveUSB systems (Linux) are quick to load and very snappy.
I only have one gripe and it's very minor. The connector protrudes from the housing ever-so-slightly, marring it's otherwise high quality finish.

I have two edit systems without network capabilities. And I constantly need to bounce files between them. The flash drive is really fast and quite rugged. Sad to say I've dropped it a couple times.

This flash drive is great, lots of storage space. Quickly and easy transfer of all my files. The metallic shine gives heft and weight to it so I don’t feel like I’m gonna break it.

Works as its supposed to. It is faster than 2.0. As noted by others, it does slow down when it is hot (transferring more than 40 GB of data at one time.) but not enough to whine about :)

I bought this to hold my family's entire photo library as gifts at Christmas time and it worked great. The 3.0 speed is impressive and the cost is reasonable for the speed/storage. I recommend it!
