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

Great quality product. Ive only had 1 fail on me over the years but I will most likely lose a flash drive before it fails. The advertised speed is almost always the READ speed, the write speed on these is around 35MB/s. P.S. Dont buy no-name brands promising 256GB for $10, theyre fake.

I was looking for USB flash drives with decent random 4k read/write speeds. For my intended usage (Linux Live USB with persistence and PortableApps), those criteria are quite important. The

Exactly what I needed.

1. Its slick 2. Fits well in my key chain 3. its fast enough

My Samsung BAR Plus 32GB USB 3.1 flash drive provides a Read Speed of up to 200MB/second, and a Write Speed of up to 34MB/second, as many USB 3.1 flash drive manufacturers promise these days. But most USB flash drives fail miserably when one installs, say, a Linux Lite operating system, plugs it into a computer, and tries to run Linux on it. Most USB flash drives, even the USB 3.1 flash drives, and especially the compact ones, overheat, which slows those promised ultra-high read/write speeds to a crawl.. except for the Samsung BAR Plus 32GB USB 3.1 flash drive! The reason why the Samsung BAR Plus 32GB USB 3.1 flash drive runs cooler and faster is that the 1.53 (40mm) long metal case also functions as an efficient heatsink, that becomes warm to the touch when the Linux operating system is busy with videos, games, and such. And theres simply no way around that simple law of physics. I tried a few other brands of smaller, more compact USB 3.1 drives, that I could conveniently and permanently leave in my laptop USB port, but none of them could effectively run Linux. I highly recommend the Samsung BAR Plus USB 3.1 flash drive.

The drive seems to be well made. It is much faster than many I have tried, but does not approach the Rated Speeds. Still, all in all a good product.

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

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.

It works but I do not like how hot it gets although maybe that is normal since it is made of all metal and apply heat to metal and man does it scorch so yeah I figure this is normal so giving it 4 stars.

Works well and FAST! Not like some big brands lately that their USB flash simply does not work (SLOWWW). I constantly use many on IT world and I only buy well-known brands, however many are very slow despite their product description. I dont have time to test and return and need it working right away fast. If it doesnt work it goes to the bin. This one works and I will stick to it until any issues. Thank you
