Review on Vansuny 128GB Metal Waterproof USB 3.0 Flash Drive - Ultra High Speed Memory Stick for PC, Tablets, Mac, Laptop - Portable Thumb Drive by Amy Washington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small, fast, spacious flash drive

Robust but small flash drive. I know drives are a lot smaller than they used to be and a lot bigger, but these tiny sized flash drives still fascinate me. If you have an Apple credit card, it looks like a metal one, but this one is a lot smaller. / Easier than that. As a general rule, all metal devices have weight, and this one has weight, but it's still very light. Another thing that surprised me is that you don't have to extend/retract anything to insert - some flash drives have this and are difficult to insert. Not that - drive is drive, there is nothing to discover. It has a hole on the side that can be used to attach to a keychain, but this adds a lot of weight to the flash drive as you have to deal with the keys to use it. :) Although it's waterproof and another reviewer said it still works, my brain can't stop me from putting it in a glass of water on purpose. I suppose that would be normal, but I wonder if he can survive the occasional washing of his pants in the washing machine. I will not test that for this review! I'm not the kind of person who's going to break my review of a flash drive with accurate read/write speeds, none of my business. I look at how they look, feel, and have a reasonable speed of what's happening. It's USB 3.0 and that alone is enough for me. I ran some tests when I got it and everything turned out to be on par with other USB 3 drives I have, so that's good. Also, it has been formatted to exFAT, which is my preferred choice for flash drives. I mainly work on Mac, but also use some Windows files, and exFAT can be read and written by both. I was planning on reformatting it that way, so that's cool. After all, this is a roomy, small, fast flash drive at a good price. It's hard to find a reason not to get this when you need one of these drives.
