Junk
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cheap plastic housing broke inside of usb port. Lost a few days of important project files. Its my fault. I knew how poorly made the product was when i first opened the package. My surface computer was over heating and i needed to backup some files temporarily. I took the chance and lost that bet. What’s worse than buying a defective product? Best buy’s service. It failed in 4 days. I went ti the geek squad counter and was told it would cost over $500 to attempt fike recovery. I checked around for othet options for recovery. After 15 days Best Buy would not provide a refund.

May not be 256GB
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The item is faulty. The flash drive states 256GB but what you might get is 8GB. I tried copying 19GB of a movie to this flash drive and the operation always failed. Please verify the drive actually has 256GB capacity after you purchase it.

Unauthorized Bitlocker lockup.
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Windows 11 locked up this drive with Bitlocker without asking me. I can't get my files out of it now. I attempted to use the drive during an SSD upgrade. Microsoft's recommended fixes did not work either.

Broke after one month of use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This worked great at first and then one day it just stopped. It's not showing up on my Mac or my PC. I've tried multiple recovery programs and it's no longer detectable. I would expect something like this to happen with a much smaller USB but with a 256 GB 3.1 that cost $$$ this shouldn't happen. According to Best Buy it's no longer returnable.

Always backup your data from flash drives
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this flash drive for less than 2 months and I've already lost all of my data that I had stored on it. My only option now is to reformat and hope for the best. I have cheap flash drives that I've used for years with no problems yet my new SanDisk can't make it 2 months without failing. I always thought SanDisk was better than this. Unfortunately, I was wrong.
