Samsung BAR Plus 32GB - 200MB/s USB 3.1 Flash Drive Champagne Silver (MUF-32BE3/AM)

This USB is GREAT! Its very sleek and clean, has a metallic feeling, can hold a decent amount of data too. I use this mainly for my classes and keep it on my keychain. I never forget it as it fits really well on it, furthermore has seen rain and it still works like a charm. Only gripe is that if it stays in a computer for too long it can get a bit warm(not too hot). Otherwise, a very solid and good USB to use for anything. Read and Write speeds are very fast too

I ordered this Samsung Bar Plus 32 GB drive after watching a YouTube video review stating this flash drive was the best one to buy to use with UNRAID. It was working fine for 7 months until it died on me. Luckily I just ordered a new Samsung Bar Plus 32GB so I had a replacement to get my UNRAID server back up and running. I will update this review depending on how long the new one lasts. I may have to go back to buying Patriot flash drives. I ordered a Patriot Supersonic Rage 2 on March 2, 2016, and its still going strong after 5 years of reading and writing more data than the Samsung Bar Plus ever did.

I own a lot of these, havent ever ran into any trouble other than occupationally some of them overheat while doing large rights to them. I dont tend to stress them after I write things to them they tend to just sit around and get read after once in a while, which means read speed is the only thing that really matters to me, and they have pretty good read speed.

The other reviews reporting fast reads but very very slow write speeds are accurate. and its very slick and weirdly shaped making it difficult to insert into a new and stiff usb port. I have dropped it or nearly dropped it many many times. never had problems like that before... how did they make as slick as a bar of soap in the shower?

I bought two of these both work very well but run exceedingly hot which can be attributed to them higher performance, but I can only assume this will come at the cost of longevity.

I use this in an over the air tv recorder. The drive I was using would drop the signal now and then. This drive does not and works great!

Read speed is amazing, but, I bought this for write speed and as a replacement for Lexar its not that great. I have compared some of my storage speeds.

Im getting the advertised transfer speeds, and I actually really like that the form is made of metal because it works as a built in heat sink. Feels very smooth and has nice weight to it, my coworkers are jealous and keep referring to it as My Precious. Great drive.

Huge storage of memories in a small package.

I dont know anything about the exact speeds, but for normal use it was perfect for installing Windows 10 and then adding all the extra drivers needed for a new computer build. Added and transferred files just fine for normal use.
