SanDisk Cruzer Blade 8GB (5 pack) USB 2.0 Flash Drive Jump Drive Pen Drive SDCZ50 - Five Pack w/ (2) Everything But Stromboli (TM) Lanyard

Just the right size to share with someone

These are only USB 2.0 and dont hold a great amount of data, but they are very handy. I have grabbed them so many times already and was so glad I had them when I needed them.

They work as intended however Im deducting a 2 stars because not even 6 months in, One of them overheated badly to the point it melted the plastic the chip was contained in. I had to turn off my computer and let it cool down before taking the little guy out. So if they work they work if they overheat then they burn up.

These items came just as described...five USB drives and two lanyards. Im not sure why they didnt just include five lanyards or none at all, but I dont plan on using them anyway, so no loss to me. The drives are very light and are made with plastic shells so they dont appear to be very durable if used heavily. I purchased these to have a few boot devices on hand for IT work at my job. Since they will be stored in a case at all times and only used when working on computers, I needed something cheap, small and lightweight. These fit the bill perfectly. As I mentioned, I wouldnt recommend these drives for heavy use and I probably wouldnt want to carry this in my pocket all day, everyday. It wouldnt take much to snap this drive in half. Functionally speaking, they work perfectly and Ive had no issues reading or writing from/to them. I have included a photo to show just how small they are compared to a half dollar.

Whats not to love about a thumb drive that is so small it takes up almost no room. I like the little 8G size as it is just perfect to store a copy of the download of the latest OS. Im a Mac user and I want to have a bootable wee drive for each OS that has come out since I bought my machine. They seem to vanish from the App Store after a while. I can label one of these and put it into a little plastic bag and toss that into the file box that holds everything installable for my iMac.

Great little Product- Working as described- A real bargain if needing such an Item, and will buy again if required- Nice little Device!

needed one, but got the 5pack since it made financial sense given the cost difference. use one for home, for work, for school, for whatever. never had a problem with sandisk memory products.

Sent these back. All plastic, and I was concerned about how well they actually would save your files.

For years I have used USB thumb drives from many different manufacturers. All have been fine - - except this product. This product is totally unsatisfactory for two reasons: 1- The first one I tried to use, when plugged in indicated: (a) this drive requires formatting, then (b) upon attempting to format indicated that it had 64MB capacity [yes, 64MB, not 8GB], then (c) this drive cannot be formatted. 2- Unlike all other drives Ive purchased before, these drives have no caps. Unless you carefully keep them in something like a ziploc bag they can accumulate abrasive debris and damage your USB port when you plug it in. All five drives are going into the trash. Its hard to believe all of the 5 star reviews are genuine.

The items were shipped as scheduled, packaging was good. From the description, I believed that I was buying the original Cruzer type device with a flashing red light in the middle, so In that sense, I was disappointed. Also, there were five devices but only two lanyards instead of five, so I am short of three of them. it makes no sense to me. Despite these issues, I like all products from SanDisk and their products are attractively priced. I definitely recommend this vendor.
