> 3 dayThis flash drive is much faster than advertised. It can do bulk writes at about 65-70 MB/s and bulk reads at about 120-130 MB/s. This is definitely sufficient for most uses cases. It doesnt even get very hot, which is a common problem. Im knocking a star off for 2 reasons: - while I was doing a stress test and copying many files concurrently it disconnected once from the USB bus, which forced me to restart the transfer. This is something that doesnt happen with my setup and quality, reliable drives. This happened only once, but I still wouldnt want to relay on this flash drive for unsupervised use or critical documents. It should be more than fine to move media around. - while peak transfer speeds are fast, sustained speeds can be lower. In some cases reading from the drive happens at 60 MB/s, that while still plenty fast is literally half the top speed I get with bulk transfer.

> 3 dayWe use flash drives all the time to carry our music around, and to transfer data from one computer to another. This one has a nice capacity and works well. It even comes with a lanyard, so you dont lose it as easily, which is good. No complaints. Highly recommended.

> 3 dayAfter 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.

> 3 dayThis review is for the 2GB Flash Drive 10 Pack USB 2.0 Thumb Drive Swivel Memory Stick Jump Drive with LED Indicator/ Lanyard/ Label for Storage and Backup (2G, 10pcs, Navy Blue) (2GB, Blue*10). Good basic set of simple thumb drives for quick backups of selected files, sharing files, or moving files between devices when there is no network connectivity. The 2GB size of these is best for basic files, and audio/music files, but not really big enough for larger high quality videos. But that shouldn’t matter because these are also USB 2.0 devices, which has a slower transfer rate, and not really well suited for larger video files. These are perfect for things like still pictures, office document files, etc. I especially like the swivel bar design to protect the USB plug. Caps on thumb drives are a pain at times to deal with and not lose. The downside is the thumb drive is not as protected from dust/dirt/liquids as those with a full protective cap. Tip: For ANY thumb drive you purchase, it is always advisable to scan it first with security software before using it.

Greater than one weekWas super excited to receive these and finally organize files on my computer to flash drives. Some of them are corrupted, theyve ruined my files or show as if I never even put them on the flash drive. Thankfully I hadnt deleted anything from my laptop yet. But If you cant trust it to hold your information, not worth it for me to purchase again. I have three that are working fine with no problems.

> 3 dayI really like how, solid and tough these are. They’re built to last and easy to carry around and use. And they are faster than my Sandisk Cruzers. TechTool Pro shows that these 4 GB USB Drives are by General UDisk Media. HOW I FORMATTED AND TESTED First I formatted as MS-DOS (FAT) for any computer. Then I ran the Surface Scan test on TechTool Pro. It Passed the test and said, “No Bad Blocks Encountered.” THE SPEED TESTS Then I did SPEED TESTS from my computer to one of these USB Drives… 3GB of 59 full quality CD music files - 4 minutes 20 seconds 3GB of 435 mp3 320 music files - 4 minutes 28 seconds FOR COMPARISON I USED A 32GB SANDISK CRUZER 3GB of 59 full quality CD music files - 4 minutes 31 seconds 3GB of 435 mp3 320 music files - 4 minutes 46 seconds Tested with USB Drive plugged into Fideco Dock connected to 2008 Mac Pro Tower.

> 3 dayI needed a few medium capacity USB drives, and these fit the bill. They are high quality, include a lanyard for each drive, and operate flawlessly. I only tried three, but all three did between 58-72 MB/s transfer on 2 DVD files I used for a test. The price puts them at under $6 per unit, and for 64 GB at these speeds, is a good deal.

> 3 dayTo be honest the aesthetics of flash drives dont matter much to me, although they are painted metallic they are just plastic but again I could care less. The package came with 5 USB sticks, 5 lanyards, and a bunch of labels, perhaps around 20. All of the flash drives said they were 64gbs and I have verified each will hold that much by uploading 63.5gbs of video to each. I was able to play each video file! Im very pleased with them, and honestly it will be years before I need to buy more!

> 3 dayThese arrived in a little plastic pouch thats resealable like a ziplock bag. It comes with a little blue cloth wrist strap for each drive that can make fishing it out of your pocket a bit easier, and much less likely to get lost. It also includes a set of 12 little white labels so I guess you can mark each drive to differentiate them in case you keep them all in one spot. All in all theyre very handy and small enough that you can use it to easily move data from one PC to another or use it to save data thats important in a different location. Im always using these for BIOS upgrades or to boot into linux for emergencies.

> 3 dayThis 5-pack of 32GB USB 3.0 sticks did not disappoint. 5 out of 5 are working well. Transfer speeds are good. They default to FAT32, I was able to reformat to NTFS without difficulty. The included matching blue lanyards are nice. I appreciate the inclusion of the dozen labels to place on the drives, as I use these to have multiple backups of important information, and labeling them clearly is always an issue. I think this is a solid overall value for a 5 pack of 32gb USB sticks.
