They say 3.1 flash drives are faster than 3.0, so I bought one. It sits practically flush with the edge of my XPS 13 laptop so I don't have to remove it when put it in its sleeve. I use it to back up my important docs without having to drag out another external drive when I'm on the road. I hate having these documents on the cloud.
One problem is that it heats up when it's doing heavy transfers. I had another small USB drive like this before and you really can't avoid it because there's nowhere for the generated heat to go. So I'll take it out right after and hold it between my fingers to dissipate the heat. For 128 GB, it's got enough memory for me to be just drop stuff on it at will.

I purchased a SanDisk 128gb USB 3.1 thumb drive from bestbuy.com. It arrived quickly and it surpassed all of my expectations. This thumb drive is super compact, is ultra-fast, and has a ton of storage capacity which will last me for quite a while. Thank you Best Buy!

We needed a flash drive so the kids could watch movies in the car entertainment system. I used a typical sized flash drive and it kept getting bumped, kicked, etc. and eventually broke. This low profile flash drive is exactly what I needed! There's nothing to bump or kick you can't really even notice it's there but it is and it holds a lot of movies and has made my family car rides very peaceful! Thank you SanDisk!!!

Nice, little drive with lots of space. I like how I can keep this in my laptop all the time. When formatted I get about 114 GB of storage. Speeds are pretty fast as well.

When purchasing this on sale it is an extremely good value! I purchased this to use with my Nvidia Shield to run tons of emulators and games, especially Sega Dreamcast, and Nintendo Gamecube Games as these are pretty large in size. The load times are instant and the larger storage will allow me to even add a huge Sony Playstation library as well. The speeds I was getting was 147MBs read and 55Mbs write.

Love this little flash drive. Very low profile that doesn’t get it the way. You don’t even notice it’s there. I use it to free up memory on my MacBook Pro. Very simple to use, just plug and play. No need to format it. Wish I had bought more than one when it was on sale..... :-(

This is a very fast drive. Own several other SanDisk as well as other brands and this on seems to be the fastest by far. The stick is short doesn't stick out very far. I always worry about accidentally hitting longer sticks and breaking something. If you use a laptop somewhere other than a desk this is a must have.

Not much to say; it's a USB stick. It does what it needs to - store data lol. That said, this is the *best* USB stick for any car stereo that has a front facing USB port. The bulk of this stick will be recessed into the USB port, leaving just the curved nub at the end visible. Very subtle, much nicer than having some large colorful stick protruding from your dash.

This little guy will fit easily in your laptop and you wont have to worry about it getting caught or snapped off due to it sticking out. Speeds are pretty consistent with its larger sized brothers.

Installed it in my Tesla Model X for sentry mode, it works well enough and fits perfectly thanks to it's small size in the USB port without danger of breaking. I did have the vehicle tell me one time the speed of the flash drive was too slow but it hasn't appeared since, I am able to see recordings without any issues. Great deal for the price.

Just super upgrade for media storage. Had a previous aqusistion of PNY 128 GB about six years ago, the SanDisk 128 GB is very small in comparison. Option for file management with SanDisk software adds to ease of setup.

This Flash drive works fine but is flimsy compared to the older model. This has USB 3.1 but is all plastic, the old USB 3.0 model had metal for the USB. The old model came with a cap, this one does not.
