SanDisk 32GB (Five Pack) USB 3.0 Flash Ultra Memory Drive CZ48 - Bundle with (2) Everything But Stromboli Lanyard

These were perfect for my needs

The price is good for 5 retractable thumb drives. I like that the storage capacity isnt too small or too large. Im always worried that if it is too large, theres too much risk putting so much data on one drive. If its too small, its inconvenient. This storage capacity is a nice compromise.

Seems to all be great so far! Only used 2 of them so if any have issues I will report back at a later date.

Good value for my money per unit.

I am having bad luck with this set of Flash drives. I purchased a set of 5 SanDisk 16GB Ultra USB 3.0 flash drives and so far 2 have failed me. I have a 2010 Macbook Pro (USB 2.0) that I connected the drives and copied files to. On 2 separate occasions I copied files to these drives and then ejected them. When I tried to connect them back to my laptop to verify the files, they failed to mount to my computer. I now have 2 pieces that will not mount to my macbook pro or my iMac. I havent tried them on any other computers. 2 out of 5 drives from this set have failed, 2 I gave to clients with recorded audio files (they worked when I handed them over to client) and the last one I still have and it is currently working. Its a mystery so I will avoid these next time.

For my application which was music video storage, the download was seamless and the quality of the finished product was excellent. No freezing/no dropouts.

Ive used all sorts of USBs and some were more compliant than others. If all you are going to do is transfer files then any old key will pretty well do. I, however, need a key that I can install on operating system on and this one fits the bill. Ive put bootable versions of Centos, Ubuntu and FreeDOS on these keys and they just keep chugging along. I used the installs to perform maintenance on servers and there is plenty of room on the key for the OS and the updates and firmwares needed to get my machines complaint. I highly recommend these keys.

I really like these thumb drives. The construction is better than most. My one problem is that the storage capacity is not as much as other brands with the same listed capacity. Apparently more of the drive is taken up with the software required to run the drive. I have tried removing all of it, but I still am persistently missing more than 500m
