SanDisk Ultra Flair, 512GB, USB 3.0, 150MB/s Read, Durable, Sleek Metal Casing, Silver/Black

I’ve been using this flash drive for a few months now, and I have to say, it’s been a solid performer. It’s a good, reliable option if you need something portable for storing and transferring files.The connectivity is one of the first things I noticed. It’s a USB 3.0 drive, so file transfers are pretty quick—up to 150 MB/s for larger files, which is much faster than older USB 2.0 drives I’ve used in the past. That said, it works with USB 2.0 ports too, so even if you’re on an older computer, it’ll still get the job done, just at a slower speed. It can get warm when transferring large files, but hasn't felt worryingly hot, and cools down quickly.The metal construction is also a nice touch. It has a sleek, minimalist look, and the metal feels sturdy without being heavy. I've dropped it a few times (oops!) and it hasn’t shown any signs of damage.In terms of value for money, it’s definitely worth it for the price. You’re getting 128GB of storage, which is plenty for a mix of documents, photos, and some larger files like videos. I didn’t find the price to be too high for the amount of space and speed you’re getting.As for format capability, I didn’t have any issues with compatibility. I’ve used it with both Windows and macOS, and it worked without any need to reformat it, since it’s pre-formatted with exFAT.All in all, this flash drive is a reliable, no-frills USB stick that has worked out well for me.

I recently purchased the 128GB Ultra Flair USB 3.0 Flash Drive, and I am thoroughly impressed with its performance! First and foremost, the data transfer speed is very impressive. It’s super fast, which makes backing up large files, such as phone pictures and videos, a breeze. I can transfer hundreds of photos in just minutes.The design is sleek, small, and compact, making it perfect for on the go use. The build quality feels solid and durable, with a well-made casing that gives me confidence it will last a long time.I also appreciate how easy it is to use, just plug it into the USB port, and you're good to go. No complicated setup needed. Whether you’re using it to back up files, transfer data, or just as extra storage, this little memory stick does it efficiently. Overall, it’s a fast and convenient storage solution. I'm just about to order another!

I bought this on a lightning deal, and paid around £15 for it.What surprised me first of all was how tiny this was. I've had flash drives before, but none as small as this one, especially considering its size. It's hard to believe that it can hold 128 Gb...So, this is a nice shiny, metallic, tiny flash drive. It looks cool. And it works fine.I suspect that, like me, most people will not be too bothered about transfer rates, read/write speeds and so on. If a product does what it's claimed to, and does it reliably and consistently, then that will be fine. It's only the hardened professional that will really need to know the fine detail. And I for one am not qualified to tell you all the technical stuff. All I can tell you is how it really works for me.In the main, I use it when I'm working on Photoshop files - often very large layered PSD files in excess of 50Mb. They transfer quickly to this flash drive, and without any fuss (I use it in a USB hub). I also use it to store text files - I'm working on a very large document in excess of 300 pages. Again, everything transfers and saves quickly and easily, without any delay, and the files open quickly when I want them to. To be honest, that's about all I need to know. When I'm working, all I want is to get on with what I'm doing, without any distractions about how quickly the flash drive is working. I simply need to know that the flash drive works when I want it to, and that it won't let me down. And I know this anyway...it's a SanDisk after all.I've been using it almost continuously, for four or five hours a day, for the last four months. It works. I'm happy. That's about all there is to say. Oh, and it gets a bit warm if you use it a lot. Not hot, just slightly warm. But then, they all do.One final point. It comes with a secure password-protected system so that, if your flash drive should fall into someone else's hands, they won't be able to access your private data. I was initially impressed with this - in fact it's probably partly why I bought it, that and the fact that it was a SanDisk - but to be honest, it's just more bother to use than I really want. So I've chosen not to use the secure locker part of the drive, electing instead to use it without any security. But the fact that this option remains open to me, should I ever need to use it in the future, is still a nice feature.In summary, it's a nice little flash drive, and it works fine. It's not the most amazing bargain of all time. But for the money, it gives you a whole lot of secure storage for your money. It seems solid and well made, and it's got the SanDisk name behind it. That's really all you need to know.Would I recommend it? Always.I hope you've found this brief review useful.
