Sandisk Ultra USB Flash Drive, 256 GB, Black (SDCZ48-256G-A46)

I had this for less than a year and had barely used it at all. It was simply a backup that I used to store ALL of my photos. I was updating it with my newer photos and it froze windows explorer. After the freeze-up it was no longer recognized by windows in any of my USB ports. Basically its a tiny $60 brick that i barely got any use out of...

My go to flash drive easy to use, fast speeds, everything you want in a flash drive. Shipping was very fast arrived ahead of schedule. Very pleased I will buy again.

After about 8 months of regular use, the flash drive can no longer be recognized by my computer (Windows 10 PC). When I insert it, the drive shows up, but I cant access it. When I try to right-click and format the drive, my computer freezes for about 30 seconds. Afterwards, the drive disappears and then shows up again. Rinse and repeat. Makes me wonder if the 256 gb is just too much for a product of such small physical size, as all my Sandisk drives under 128 gb are still working perfectly fine (one has been submerged in snow and water, and another has been through a washing machine cycle). Hopefully this is just an isolated incident and not a consistent pattern for Sandisk products, as they are the most widely available flash drives out there.

This is my fourth one of the same item. I get the 250 gig size as it meets my needs. Plug it in, it sets up in under a minute and its ready to go. I put a key ring through the hole to allow for tags indicating what the drive contains. I have multiples because I lost all the data when using a 2T drive and it failed.

It holds all the folders and files on my server as an extra back up of my data. Perfect.

Great USB Drive, Great Price and I can back-up and carry all my work with me... Before I carried multiple USB drives or worse yet a spinning external hard drive.

Works perfectly as expected. Worth the cost. Would buy again.

When usb is slid closed, it impedes on lanyard hole and caused it to break when on my keyring. USB works good otherwise.

Worked immediately without need to format. Fast and reliable.

Works perfectly
