Handy and small back-up of my computer. Easy to use and reliable.

I've had several SanDisk products over the years and have always generally liked what you get for the cost. This flash drive is no exception. It works perfectly well straight out of the box and comes with a free year of their cloud drive service. I've yet to try that out, but intend to once I finish copying files onto the flash drive (I'm using it to back-up my music collection, which is over 150 GB). Speeds are fine. I'm not getting 100mb/s, but that may have something to do with my computer. I have a few other things I want to try out before I call "foul" on this one. Only complaint? I'm not a huge fan of the slider design, which this and so many thumb drives have. I find them to be a bit of a pain, especially when trying to insert the drive into the back of a computer that you don't have very easy access to. The connector always seems to want to slide back into the plastic when I'm trying to insert it into the computer. But hey - it's not like SanDisk is the only one using that design. All in all, this is an accessory that's easy to recommend. It will do what you need it to do and it won't cost an arm and a leg to do so.

Because this thumb drive has such high capacity it's great for taking on trips where I need to work on files or primarily photo projects while away on an extended vacation. It holds an amazing amount of stuff and I can copy things from my main computer at home and bring them with me to work on on my laptop. I don't have to overload my laptop, just pick the files I want to work on on this thumb drive and then bring the completed work back home to load to my main computer. Perfect!

I have used quite a few of these as probably everyone has these days. I transfer very large files for work and this drive is significantly faster than any other 3.0 USB drive I have used in the past. I also signed up using the Rescue Pro software and it is nice to use but it does come with some fees if you continue to use it but it is easy to use. I purchased a few more drives after using this first one.

Ive used SanDisk drives before, and have generally had great results, the one caveot being that I have experienced drive failure (as with any flash drive, eventually) and had the stressful experience of trying to recover lost data. Ive also had an instance or two of being concerned about sensitive data being accessed on a lost drive, but am pleased to say this drive resolves both issues, with password encryption software included on the drive (complete with setup tutorial) and "Flashback" cloud storage (for a nominal fee after the first year) that allows you to back up your data to the cloud and thus access it from virtually anywhere. Data transfer speeds are extremely solid, and the drive is a quick plug & play load. You cannot go wrong here. Especially having the only flash drive stressors (unsecured data and unexpected drive failure) neutralized by this drive's features. Definitely recommend to everyone.

I purchased to store pictures/video. I have only owned it for a few weeks now but it works as expected. Fast transfer times. I have it about a third full so far. I would buy again!

This new 256 GB USB, along with my older Sandisk and Lexar 128 GB USBs, don't "play well" with my new logitech M325S mouse. When any of those drives are in, can't use the new mouse on its pad. Similarly, I can't download files from live on-line presentations with the mouse to any of the above drives [have to download to the C drive and then transfer later to the USB after the presentation ends]. Never had such a problem with my old HP Pavilion [R-I-P]. Probably a driver problem--one or all of these manufacturers need to address this aggravating issue.
Thank you for sharing your experience. This appears to be a driver or compatibility issue rather than a problem with the drive itself. We recommend checking for the latest system driver updates. If the issue continues, please get in touch with the support team for further assistance by opening a ticket at (https://support-en.sandisk.com/app/askweb)

Great USB thumb drive for storing personal file

I picked this 256GB thumb up on sale "Deal of the Day" and it was too good a deal to pass up. I use it to back up my pictures and documents on my desktop with space to spare. I have a 750GB external HD but like the fact this is a static drive and there is nothing to break and it's easy to store. Amazing technology.
