Review on ๐Ÿ’พ Samsung BAR Plus 32GB - High Speed USB 3.1 Flash Drive (Titan Gray) - MUF-32BE4/AM by Blake Pudic

Revainrating 4 out of 5

DO NOT BUY THIS!

OVERVIEW: Like many others, this USB flash drive failed after two months of use. Now its capacity is 28.8 GB. DETAILS: I bought this CD because it was recommended by Revain and had good reviews. After receiving it, I formatted the drive. I formatted it to 64GB. It feels solid and fits snugly in the USB port. Using the USB stick seems fast and responsive. That is, until one day the files on the hard drive were corrupted. There was no way to restore them. (Luckily I used the USB drive as a second backup and still had the original files plus the first backup.) Since the files were unrecoverable, I reformatted the USB drive exactly as I did when I originally received the drive; Only this time the drive will be formatted to 28.8GB. I tried reformatting it on another computer... and it's still formatted to 28.8GB. I've tried formatting it with different file systems as well as different allocation unit sizes. Nothing matters. The USB drive is now a 28.8GB flash drive. If you take the time to read other reviews, you will find others describing the exact same problem. So my advice: keep looking...don't buy this one! (Final note: When this drive failed - two months after I bought it - Revain's return period had expired. However, I contacted Revain and explained the problem. The person I spoke to was very polite and able got my money back. Keep up the good work Revain! Another reason I will continue to recommend and buy through them!)
