10 Pack 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive Memory Stick, Vuefamy Swivel Thumb Drives Bulk for Data Storage with Lanyards and Removable Labels (8GB 10 Pack, Black)

64GB is kind of in the middle of being enough and not quite enough memory these days. If you need something for a bunch of file transfers, or maybe even a small back up like an Image of your OS in case of corruption then these work well. For larger storage I would say try something else. With five you can have a couple laying around that can make it a bit easier to transfer files than trying something like drop box or google drive. Of course you would need to be able to physically access the computer but these work fine. No issues with booting up, no signs of any type of suspicious software or hardware when I opened one up either so it all seems good. Nice compact little design that is easy to carry and throw in your pocket or maybe on a key ring if you wanted.

For the money, these are actually pretty nice little flash drives. They arent going to win any awards, but they seem to work and work well. The actual capacity in hard drive math is 62.9Gb (58.5Gb in regular math), which is slightly lower than 64Gb, but as they admit this up front and explicitly list it in the item description, I have no issue with it. Honesty is a good thing! The drives come formatted using the exFAT file system, which does typically offer the best cross platform compatibility, but has never been known for performance. So, for most of my performance testing I reformatted the drives using NTFS and those are the results I show. I also did a bit of testing with the drive formatted in exFAT and the results were about what I would expect, although the benchmark results were.... interesting. First off, I was able to copy a full 60Gb file to the drive and back successfully, which is always a good thing to check on off brand flash drives, as in years past they sometimes were smaller drives in disguise. I saw no such issues here and the full capacity of the drive worked properly. Under Windows on a USB 3 port the transfer speed would bounce from 60MB/s down to almost zero about once per minute, with the average speed of the transfer working out to around 38MB/s. It took around 26 minutes to copy the entire file to the drive. Honestly, for this class drive, this is not bad at all and, as they only advertise write speeds of above 15MB/s, way better than expected. Once again, here is a cheer for honesty in advertising! The bounciness in the transfer speed is very typical as the buffers on the drive fill up and the data then has to be written to the actual flash module and tends to average out to what the underlying write speed of the flash actually is. When I read the file back off the drive, I actually was getting sustained read speeds of around 122MB/s, so no complaints at all there as that is also roughly 2x what they advertise. Be aware however that these were large sequential read/write operations on a single file. Small block I/O on lots of smaller files is likely to be much, much worse, as while the underlying flash is pretty decent, the actual number of IOPS for this type drive is usually not fantastic. While I didnt benchmark small block I/O by hand, you can get an idea of the rough performance delta by looking at the CrystalDiskMark results. Just for completeness, I did do a bit of testing using exFAT and while the read results were essentially identical, the average write speed copying the file to the disk was around 29MB/s and it took almost 35 minutes to complete. What is interesting is that the CrystalDiskMark results for exFAT showed write speeds of 95-102 MB/s, which is well above the drives actual performance. I can only surmise that the combination of the 1GB test data size and the 128K block size used for exFAT conspired to keep the test data largely in the drives cache during the actual benchmark run and allowed the write cycle to complete while the drive had moved onto the read portion of the benchmark. It is very rare that I see a product that actually delivers more than they advertise, and these do. In conclusion, these drives are priced very well and the performance is actually quite a bit better than what they advertise, so I have absolutely no problem recommending them!

These thumb drives are as expected and will make great stocking stuffers. They tested well and indicated no errors. I am happy with my acquistion.

I like that this thumb drive is a fast USB 3.0 drive with plenty of storage. It took me a minute to find the LED light because I had the metal cover over the light.

Connection type is USB-A. Which is commonly found on most desk and laptops, yet not on many tablets and readers. I Would have preferred a USB-C connecter. Which both my laptop and tablet have. Therefore, I had to get an adapter to make this all function. That said, these have some nice accessories to them, such as protection of the ports. Therefore, a 5-star review, as anyone having a larger tablet than mine would more likely have multiple ports, with one being a USB-A. (Plus, with the mess of varying port sizes nowadays, connectors are often needed anyway.)

I plugged this in, and my laptop immediately recognized it. Works very quickly with the USB 3 port or even a USB 2 port. The blue plastic has a soft feel, which is a nice touch. The pivoting metal cover moves a little too freely for my taste. I think it should be a little stiffer, but thats my preference. The cords need to be put on, if you want.

After receiving the device, I underwent full population and tests using CheckFlash. In a matter of a few minutes (thanks to USB 3.0 superspeeds!) the tests completed with flying colors. The advertised capacity is accurate, and operates right below the top burst speeds for reads. Writes were a little slower than expected, but reliable. Its a handy little flash drive thats well worth the price.

Exactly what I needed and at a really good value. I use these for pictures, transferring files, short video clips and just about anything else I can load on to them. I am surprised how quick these read and write and within a couple seconds after plugging them in the computer recognizes them instantly. I was Leary about the high speed tiltle in the description but that describes these perfectly. The data download and upload are excellent! The red LED light is nice and lets you know at a quick glance they are working. I also like the fact that they swivel making them compact enough to put on my keychain or in my pocket. This is an awesome deal and I am completely satisfied with them.

This is so handy to carry holds a lot of data download is fast great data holder and pictures A+

These come in a multipack as pictured. Each drive is individually wrapped in cellophane labelled with the drives capacity within this outer Ziplock-style bag. Also included are twelve blank, white, sticky labels so the drives can be identified. The wrist-sized lanyards are handy for making the drives a little less droppable. They are made of strong nylon and feel like they will hold up to all normal use. I popped these into my older, USB2.0 Windows machine and they were immediately recognized and showed about 58.5GB of space (which is correct using manufacturer math). I copied a 2GB file from the physical hard drive onto these flash drives and saw speeds during the copying around 30MB/s to transfer -- it took several minutes. Then I plugged them into my newer, faster, USB3.0 (also Windows) machine where they were again immediately recognized, showing the same amount of space. The 2GB file transferred from this flash drive to my internal SSD at 150MB/s -- this took less than a minute. They are made of a rugged plastic with a typical metal cover that spins in and out of the way. The drive body and the USB connection are strong and feel quite durable (I want durable in my portable data devices).
