Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a thumb drive, with a lot of space, that works.

I purchased this flash drive for the purpose of system backup. An incredible value for the investment. I was advised by Geek Squad personnel on this decision, and their advice and opinions have always been reliable for the past 19 years.

Jumbo size data entry makes the item very functional and convenient to use for multiple file saving and transfers.

Easy to use. Plenty of storage space. Convenient size for storage.

This little device is a big time saver--- copy times are excellent! Most flash drives are USB 2.0. This one is not, it's USB 3.0, and paired with a computer that offers USB 3.0 connections, is much faster than the more common USB 2.0 flash drives. I am using mine to move large video files from a Mac to a Windows machine. Loading to the flash drive is fast and copying them from it to the second machine is even faster. Doing the same job with a hard drive is faster, but not as simple. I enjoy the simplicity over a bit of lost speed. While this is a USB 3.0 device, I have also tried it in a computer having only USB 2.0 connections. No problems! Although it can't achieve the speed of a computer having USB 3.0 outputs, the speed was good and the transfer went smoothly. I've had great experiences with previous SanDisk purchases, and this product proves they are still top-notch. If you are looking for a fast, easy way to transfer files from place to place, this won't disappoint.

Works great. The SanDisk USB holds a large amount of pictures, data and charts.

This is a great little drive. I picked it up while on sale. I should have grabbed two! Nice to have so much storage on a small usb stick. I use it to transfer files all the time - when connected to a usb 3 port it is super fast. It holds it's on when connected to usb 2 as well. If you see it on sale grab it.

Works as expected, fast and reliable. Used with brand new laptop so my USB ports are fast.

The SanDisk Ultra 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive is a dependable and efficient storage solution for everyday use. It offers fast transfer speeds, making it easy to move large files like videos, photos, and documents. The compact design is convenient to carry, and the large capacity ensures you won’t run out of space. A great value for reliable storage.

The second one I have purchased, the first lasted over 5 years, being bounced around in my backpack, and being used weekly. Only bought a second because I need more space!

Bought this to drive in order to transfer photos from an SD card while vacationing. I did the transfers using my Macbook Air and an SD card adapter. The transfers were very fast. The large capacity made it unnecessary to take along a hard drive for backups and was very space and weight efficient.

At $50 for a 256GB flash drive was a great price in 2017, even better now at $31. For two years, this drive has performed flawlessly and it's large capacity allows for large data items like photos and video. The drive is reliable and 3.0 is fast.

High storage capacity and decent speed for a USB 3.0 memory stick.

Quality product at excellent sale price. Fast. Actually more storage than I needed but for the price, why not. Sandisk has always been reliable for me in the past so i went with it again.

Good usb, has been reliable with fast transfer speed. This item is great specially if bought on sale!

I have A LOT OF PICTURES & DATA FILES THAT I CAN NOT REPLACE NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY. I used this because with this little USB Flash Drive --- It holds as much as 54 DVDs! Plus this takes a lot less room, is light & fast. Great for work, important files & pictures.

The SanDisk - Ultra 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive is an excellent choice for local backups, it is fast has a huge (Yuge!) capacity and is rated as one of the most reliable USB media devices. Best Buy, as usual, had the Best Price and quick delivery.

I've been using 2 of these flash drives for well over 5 years to exchange updated critical folders & files between my desktop and laptop while concurrently providing a fallback backup media of selected data. The bottom line is that they've become trustworthy devices to fulfill this ongoing requirement for me.
