    I was concerned that I would lose all my data after having some overheating issues with my computer. So the geek squad tech recommended I get this just in case they can't back everything up but it works out because now I have two backups. Just the cloud so it's nice to have something somewhat tangible

    I love this Flash drive. It's fast and the price was good for a 256G. I used it to store movies, photos and music that I had on my hard drive which has made my computer so much faster. Money well spent

    A 256 GB flash drive for this price is great value. Of course, you can get a portable hard drive for less, but if you're looking for something to carry in your pocket, then SanDisk flash drives are the answer.

    I use these for off site backups. This 256 Gb USB 3 flash drive has plenty of space to store my back up files. It's much easier than creating and transporting a box full of backup DVD's to my off site storage location.

    Does what it should, inexpensive for what you get

    Overall, this drive does what it should. It's fairly inexpensive considering it gives you 256GB of storage. However, I have a few of these and noticed that they rarely actually ever write at full USB 3.0 speeds (which I would say 100MB/s is good, but these in my experience only write around 50MB/s, still fast enough, but if you have a lot of data to move around, it can take some time. REad speeds are still good, though, 100MB/s or more. I'm quite sure this limitation is not my computer, as I've experienced this on a few machines with various drives of this model, so I'm thinking that perhaps they advertised only the read speed and the write speed is not quite what it seems (which is how companies generally advertise storage media anyway--they boast about the read speed, but the write speed is generally 50% less). Regardless, I'd still recommend this as I've never had a problem with a SanDisk drive going bad (yet).

    Just the right size so it is easy to plug in and remove from slot. Retractable for protecting the connection. Fast, as expected for USB3.0. Reasonably priced.

    The fact that this is USB 3.0 speed is great. Much faster transfers than the USB 2.0 versions I have. The storage capacity is plentiful. Also, since the connector retracts, it has some protection when not in use.

    I hadn't purchased a flashdrive in a long time and this one holds a huge amount of data. I went into another store and saw the same item for sale and it was twice the price I paid for it at Best Buy. Great deal!

    Maximum Storage

    Needed a drive which would handle my major photo/video files. I travel and have to share info on various systems and internet availability to connect to the 'cloud' is questionable. This is necessary for me to avoid embarrassment. Just know that the storage size on any flash drive is not the actual storage size. It will be less. I've always gone light on the storage size and I finally got fed up with maxing out a drive with a partial transfer. So, for $40 it was well worth it.
