USB C Flash Drive 1 TB, 500MB/s High Speed Thumb Drive, USB 3.2 + Type C Dual Drive, Portable Memory Stick for iPhone15/16/PS4/Tablet/Laptop/PC Data Backup, Sliver

I really wanted a Thunderbolt 4 drive but this was the best I could get. Speeds are never going to be as fast as the speeds listed and having said that, this is the fastest flash drive I have ever had. Not as fast as the max speeds listed, but still very fast compared to other USB2 and USB3 drives I've used. Feels very well built. Does get rather warm in use but most fast drives do. You can easily flip between the USB A and USB C connectors but there is no cap that will prevent gunk from getting inside the USB A port.

This does seem a little faster than the SanDisk flippers I also have. I use this for transferring vid clips to storage on other machines. Shows up on Windows as an SSD, not a removable USB flash drive. Has been working fine, 1TB IS the full capacity, it's not fake. Have filled it to capacity a number of times, takes a few hours. Doesn't heat up like the SanDisk ones with long transfer sessions, about 3-4X larger than those. All metal, no lanyard included. Don't know yet about longevity. No glitches on reading files that were written. Was startled when opening the box at how large it was, still fits the tablet C port in the ruggedized case, not all will. Cats haven't made off with it unlike the small sandisks. They play floor hockey with them. Have hand lanyards to find them, those seem irresistable to the critters. So far, the flipper cover detents are still good, SanDisk ones lose that and become free spinning after heating up a few times. Can be bent back, but rinse and repeat. Not a problem with this one, so far.

Very fast writing and reading speed. It's heavy duty. It gets a little warm but not more than any other flash drive I have ever owned. I do recommend this flash drive. I've carried mine on my keyring for months with no problem.

It works great as a back up for all my data copied from a hard drive. Some devices can't see it probably because of its size. Easily copies downloads from the phone to my PC when the internet is unavailable.

I received the thumb drive today, plugged it in to my android phone 1st. It recognized it immediately mo need to format, next plugged it in to my Acer computer an again recognized it no problem didn't have to format, loaded a few files from both tested devices (phone, computer) transferred fast, the only thing I noticed was that when plugged into the usb-c port on the PC, got pretty warm but when plugged into the usb-A port on computer it didn't get warm, interesting but works great to me I'm no expert but needed an 1 tb. Storage drive for my DJI Drone videos so in my case I'm extremely happy with this thumb drive, aluminum sturdy I would definitely buy again 5* so I don't usually do reviews but figured I'd let everyone know this appears to be the perfect thumb drive to me, buy an enjoy

When trying to backup photos from my phone. Files show as corrupted on laptop. Waste of money.

I have a PC that uses USB-A, and my wife has a Mac that uses USB-C. This is the perfect tool. They also just feel solid; it’s nice.

This thing is fast! So I'm in the process of replacing my old usb backup devices. I work exclusively in android now, mainly a Samsung tablet and smartphone, both with usb-c v3.2. My old usb flash drives achieve Write / Read (W/R) speeds of around 30/60 MB /s. Yeah, they get the job done but it takes quite a while to write 60-100 GB of files. First, I bought (and returned) a Samsung 256gb usb-c flash drive, usb v3.13 (whatever the heck that is?), but it only increased the write speed to 58 MB /s. So I bought the Jostart 256 GB drive to see if it was really v3.2 or something close (yes, I'm skeptical about all these bogus usb claims). SURPRISE! The first test showed W/R speeds of 287/296 MB /s. Wow! I'm impressed. Many more tests, whether connected directly to my usb-c port or through a USB v3.2 hub that I also bought, were the same hovering at the 300 MB /s mark. Hell, that's 10x-plus faster than my other flash drives. And btw it's as fast as my Samsung T7 Shield SSD Drive, which clocks in with W/R speeds of 306/270 MB /s. Thanks for finally building a fast usb flash drive. Now I can move 100 GB of files in minutes, not hours. ☺
