SanDisk Cruzer Blade 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive

It is not giving you the GB in the description of the product.

After a few months using this for my Tesla dashcam, the usb suddenly became write protected. With some online research I found that this is a known issue with Sandisk and they don’t have a solution other than return for refund! It has been too long to return to Amazon so now I’ll just have to buy another one. I will not be buying another Sandisk.

OMG, this is tiny. I mean, Ive seen smaller, but golly is this small. Seems the more years go by, the smaller and cheaper these things get. Remember when a 500K one was something to be treasured? (Maybe youre not as old as me.) So I like this! Great for system backups on my laptop without breaking the bank. So far, it has not changed my life, made me more attractive, or improved my own memory. So it loses one star. :-)

Works well in a 3D printer. Only issue I have is its now broken at the opening. The plastic is cheap and it shows. Replacing only because I can use it for something else. Guess it was from inserting in my computer and then in the printer over and over.

This item is good. Haven’t been able to use it but was told by a coworker they were good;)

I needed a flash drive in a pinch. So, I ordered one of these from Amazon. 16gb for $6 with fast free shipping is a pretty good deal. I have 2gb and 4gb versions of this flash drive that cost more than $6 back in the day. Good reliability. Ive never had problems with any of these. I used Unetbootin to make this flash drive bootable with Linux Mint. It still works just fine after being washed in the washing machine with no loss of data. It seems fast enough for a USB 2.0 flash drive. Cons? Not USB 3.1, not USB C. But I knew those limitations when I bought it.

I made a mistake buying this item, cheap plastic, breaks easily.

This USB flash drive is good for storing files reliably. The 32GB drive is not large anymore by todays standard, but it can still hold a fair quantity of data. With a SanDisk product I am not concerned with problems using it. A good value for the price.

I like that this item is a solid design. Meaning that its not a plastic packaging over a metal sheath for the usb plug. It came with some software on it, presumably to encrypt and secure your data... I formatted that bad boy immediately. My system only detected 7.75GB, but that might be due to the bits to bytes to megabytes conversion; I havent looked at actual bytes available, but its plenty enough for me either way. I havent done any formal speed testing, but the ol butt-o-meter could tell a nice performance increase over my sandisk 4gb drive from 2 years ago. It also worked well with my Transformer TF101 tablet as I used it to download antivirus updates, rootkit tools, and other windows software since I didnt want an infected PC to connect to my network (fixing for a friend). This thing is SMALL. *Almost* too small. But I like it. Its inconspicuous so maybe people will over look it since its mostly black and it wont get picked up by someone with sticky fingers. Id actually give 4.5 stars only for the size, but mostly because I cant make up my mind if I dont like that or if I do. Small is good, but it was a bit hard to handle while trying to pry open a usb cover on my device and insert at the same time. Could be my fat fingers though. All in all, good buy.

Worked fine for me. Original packaging. Was able to format the disk with no problems. Cheap plastic but didnt overheat to the point it slowed a 3 gig transfer to a stop. I transferred from a Surface Pro 4 to the SanDisk. Did a few smaller transfers and had no issues so far. Durability does leave something to be desired.
