After about 8 months of regular use, my computer (Windows 10 PC) no longer recognized the flash drive. When I put it in, the disk appears but I can't access it. When I try to right click and format the drive, my computer freezes for about 30 seconds. After that, the hard drive disappears and then reappears. Rinse and repeat. I wonder if 256GB isn't too much for such a small product as all my Sandisk drives up to 128GB still work great (one has been submerged in snow and water and the other has been washed in a washing machine). . Let's hope this is just an isolated incident and not an ongoing trend for Sandisk products as they are the most widely used flash drives.
