SanDisk Cruzer Glide 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive -SDCZ600-256G-G35

Excellent.

The items were exactly what I expected; first rate.

Like the speed and the size

I use and trust SanDisk products, theyve never let me down and so far none of my SanDisk items have ever failed. However, this unit lost 1 star because of the case quality. It feels flimsy, the slider feel loose and doesnt stay locked when the USB receptacle is outwards. for 256Gigs, it was formatted with Fat32, which is ok, but I wouldve expected at least exFat. (I always reformat my usb sticks to NTFS format. Needless to say, it does work and functions well. Its fast, but doesnt seem to reach as high as a few other more expensive USB 3.0 sticks achieve. But for the price, its definetely worth the money. Ill be using this primarily for long term storage, so Im not overly concerned about the build quality.

I have a lonovo think pad that had only a small hard drive, bur has a port for a micro sd card. I have a 256 GB micro card in the slot--so I can back up the whole thing to the 256 GB USB flash drive. It takes a while, but about once a month backups give me peace of mind. I use smaller flash drives more often to back up work accomplished between the full backups.

I opted for a SanDisk drive because of name recognition. The drive failed and I began the tedious process of getting a warranty replacement on or before Oct 14. Its now Dec 7 and I just received the replacement today. In between those dates were multiple forms to fill out, phone calls with people in different countries, photos needing to be submitted, packaging my own USPS parcel and mailing it, and followup a month later when their records showed they hadnt received the broken drive when my tracking receipts showed that they did. I thought buying through Amazon was supposed to spare me this kind of turmoil - but not in this case. I will never buy SanDisk products again on Amazon or anywhere else. If I could charge my labor costs to SanDisk, they would get a whopping bill.

Good products

Portable storage

The flash drive works fine and can be formatted in many different ways however Im disappointed to find out that it doesnt have a led indicator and before I purchased this item I checked the reviews and someone asked if it had a led indicator and the answer was that is does and its blueish in color and I looked everywhere for any kind of light and I could not find one. So if someone has this item that has a led indicator then please let me know so that I can return this defective item
