So far so good. Using it for a video collection. We’ll see how long it lasts.
Really fast USB stick. Great for use on Mac or PC or both. Doesnt get hot, easy ejection from both devices. Recommended.
Speed is accurate in real world conditions. Read speed is important, good to install OSs.
I like it, super fast!
Durability: Lets talk about that after 1 year!
To have a USB stick which is capable of transferring data faster than a USB 3.0 port will actually allow is a heck of an achievement. Essential.
My read speeds averaged at 420 mb/s and write speeds of 80 mb/s
If you need a USB with quick transfer rates (300mbs+) then look no further. The Solid State Drive performance makes a big difference. As the norm now is 4K, the speed is essential to transfer files quickly and efficiently. At 128GB the size is fair. I would only buy this on sale when the price is less than 38 as otherwise it is a bit dear. If you need more space then I would suggest looking at external drives. But if you are looking for something small and compact then this is something you can put in your pocket and forget about.
I am using this to enable me to watch 4K videos on my TV. Transfer times on my PC are very good, as you can see from Screen Shots, write was 202 mb/s and read 382 mb/s. My P.C. USB ports are USB 3.0, not 3.1 so this result is excellent and pretty close to advertised. I always use SanDisk drives, and this is another one that I would thoroughly recommend.
Now I read comment it will not perform at full speed in older USB 3.0 ports, I knew it could not be limited by that as USB 3.0 (actual real world speed not rated speed) is higher than the USB sticks.
I have an older Asus Z87 ROG with Intel USB 3.0 ports (none of the new confusing names).
This SanDisk Extreme PRO 128 GB arrived today and in the very first test it hit just over 430MB/s Reads and 390MB/s Writes in ATTO Disk Benchmark.
cant say anything about durability – might update in a couple years!
i bought my old transcend 8gb stick 10 years ago and i still have and use it. if this one lasts 10 years too, i’ll be happy. the slide out mechanism was problematic at first, as the plug wouldnt stay fix in its “out” position. as soon as i pushed it a bit with with my finger, or tried to insert it into a usb port, it would retract. but that has gone away after sliding it in and out a couple times. hope this has settled this now. with 6 years consumer law here in ireland i am not all that concerned though.
the speed is really good. sustained write speeds of around 320-330 mb/s and sustained read speeds or around 380-390 mb/s, tested with a 6.3gb mkv movie file.
so not exactly as advertised – they say write up to 380 mb/s, and read up to 420 mb/s, but still one of the best out there.
and just as an FYI, it does get notably warm after writing/reading for 10+ seconds.
I’ve just tested the write speed of the new “SanDisk Extreme Go 64GB USB 3.2 395MB/s read,100MB/s write” and to my shock it really does have the write speed they claim.
I copied a 24Gb file from my fast M.2 drive to this stick, it copied at a constant speed of between 96 and 99Mb/s.
It does get quite warm, which seems to be common for SanDisk.
If you are using a USB stick as your main backup, it’s worth paying a bit more. This is far quicker to write to and read from than cheaper USB sticks I have tried, and much more reliable (so far).
It’s a good quality product. The speeds are not what is actually announced as they always mention the potential maximum speed. Even running test apps on it I couldn’t reach them, but it’s definitely much faster than your normal usb drive.
Excellent Quality USB Flash Drive. Feels sophisticated and works fast and smoothly.
Do expect less storage than what’s mentioned (128GB) though. It got warm when I connected to an USB hub, not sure if it’s the USB or the USB hub or my laptop to be blamed.
Other than that, for me, so far of using it (few weeks) everything about seems perfect!
Use this for fast backing up of video files.
Actual speeds are follows
Write around 100MB/s
Read around 330MB/s
It’s the write speeds which are the bottle neck but you need to spend more if you want to do better than this.
So, I would rate this as not bad considering cheaper sticks are much slower.
Actual stick seems well made.
This was my first Ssd drive. It’s used just transfer photos and holiday vids and store them as my old one have steadily given up. They have a fast transfer rate and a rather more robust than others I have used. I would by agai
I use this for DJing and have tried every other drive out there from corsair to hyper-x and many more to much frustration and disappointment. Solid build!!! The Extreme Pro SSD totally outdoes them all by far. Transfer speeds leave you smiling and if you happen to use rekordbox or other DJ software… This syncs so quick thanks to the SSD technology. I know have several of these used as DJ backup drives. If you are looking at it, dont hesitate, buy it!!
I was first known of this drive from a work colleague who demonstrated the speed of the drive. After this looked into the drive and found out it was replaced with this newer one. I got this when it was down to around 40 pounds, worth every penny. Transferring large files is rapid in comparison with other drives, the utility which encrypts data is very useful in case of theft or loss of the device. I have seen some reviews which point out the SMART status as failed for the device, i did experience this when testing the drive however with different utilities but i believe that this is software related and not drive related and have been using this since with no problems. Great drive to get for larger file storage or quick transfer of files to another device.
Its a fast drive no doubt. At home, connecting to USB3.0, with 10 and 30MB files from my SSD, it flew. GB after GB.
However, there is no magic for small files (<1MB). In the office, also with 3.0, from SSD source, I was copying some 20 GB set with a large portion of small files and it took nearly an hour. Fortunately it was a one off.
Depending on the use, and file sizes typically involved might be either a waste of money (as much cheaper drives would do just as well) or a great asset.
Durability, time will tell.
Most of the time what one will find with usb 3 sticks is the read speed is perky but the write speed is usually pretty poor.
Not so with this – I have some hard drives that can’t keep up with this and that’s quite a thing.
I also have the same comment from a friend who says pretty much the same thing on his rig which does have usb 3. Faster speeds than I get and competes with the internal HDD.
Of course if you look at the cost vs SSD or HDD it’s massively expensive but in this day and age we do pay for speed but I bought this in a sale and it was the cheapest I have seen – given that this 128GB was worth it to me and the day after I bought it, the price was 50% more than I paid. I’m glad I jumped at it when I did.
I use USB for DJing and it used to take hours sometimes to sync and transfer files and playlists – time I don’t have and can often mean stress I don’t need!
I’ve just synced ALL my playlists, about 118gb of music to this USB and it has taken just under 5 minutes!
Hopefully this will stand the test of time, but this has really made my life easier and faster!
I’ve had the older non-pro version that I left at home which made me buy this. I love that drive and decided to try this one. Overall I am happy with my purchase. Build is good, arrived on time and as expected. It does warm up a bit but not too much. It does however get scratched quickly when putting in a key ring.
Beware if using those speeds for over 5 minutes – the metal casing will be very warm to the touch. If you wipe the drive using 3 passes for instance, it will be too hot to touch, so I recommend giving it time to cool off. Not sure how much this heat will affect its longevity, but heat is never good for electronics. In anticipation of this, have bumped off a star.
This is a very good flash drive. Being a solid state drive, this makes a huge difference to the speeds at which you can download.
I used it to transfer a lot of files from a Windows XP laptop to a Windows 10 one. XP recognized it without any problems and the files downloaded in a flash (pun intended). It should be noted that it comes formatted for exFAT, so you will need to reformat it to NTFS should you wish to do the same. Reformatting it via XP was easy and trouble free. For the future, it can then be reformatted back to exFAT if required.
Understandably, being S.S.D. it is more expensive than a conventional flash drive, but I really think it’s worth the money.
Something to note however: You will find that if you are transferring from a mechanical hard drive that this drive will be bottle-necked by it. Still a very respectable ~140 MB/s transfer speed with a 7200 rpm drive but you will only get 300+ MB/s write speed in my experience transferring from another SSD.
Regardless, Highly recommend.
