Same problem as many other customers here, after 3 months of owning the drive and using it maybe 10 times in total, the USB connector on the drive has come loose from the case. I understand there may be differences in durability due to hidden manufacturing issues, but this is the lowest quality hardware I've seen from a major brand. Given the number of affected devices and the apparent mean time to device failure, I find it hard to believe the device underwent any quality testing. After this experience, I will definitely never buy a SanDisk product again. If you currently own this drive and it has not yet failed, back up your data as soon as possible.
