PNY Attaché 4 32GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 5-Pack - P-FD32GX5ATT4-EF, black: High-capacity storage at unbeatable value Review

I bought this unit thinking I would get 5 diff sticks of 32GB each. After trying to download 21GB to a 32GB flash drive (I only understand it as 28 after formatting) the download aborted after about 7GB was downloaded. I tried this on 3 "321GB" flash drives and none of them allowed me to fully utilize the "32GB flash drive". So I repeat, DO NOT BUY this product. August 6, 2020

. And the brand name (PNY) is well known. Physically they are very compact and ideal for my application (photos for a digital picture frame). I only have one problem with them: the sliding protective cover is almost impossible to remove! It's a tight, comfortable fit. The device is so small that it is very difficult to lift it to separate the device from the lid. Once you've managed to remove the lid (good luck!), you're good to go. 🙂

Bought USB 2.0 because (in FAT32 format) that's what the Fire Stick needs to play USB video (along with a cheap "Cable Micro USB Host OTG Power over Micro USB for Fire Stick" or similar connector). (Actually, I have a TCL Roku TV, which plays USB videos smoothly and unlike the Fire, is USB 3.0 and NTFS compatible. But I need versatile playback features in terms of *visual* speed, searching forward, backward, etc (- what Roku's sole media player frustratingly lacks. So a Fire Stick plus the free

100% recommended. I haven't run any speed tests or anything like that so all I can say is that they work for my purposes which mainly involves storing Linux distro ISOs, files and applications like Rufus. What is Linux you ask? It is an alternative to Windows! Some of us don't like the constant DAILY updates that damage our computers and cause us to lose our jobs. Some of us don't like the TONS of viruses that Micros0ft stuffs into our operating systems. (Xbox live on a business machine…

Overview of PNY 32GB USB2.0 Flash Drives. These 32GB flash drives cannot be read by my PS3 gaming system or my Sony Bravia TV, both of which read Sandisk 2.0 discs. Everything is formatted in FAT32. PNYs are hard to read on my Fire TV, but only once. I have to restart the TV (mean reboot) so that it reads PNY every time. PNYs are very slow to be recognized by my Chromebook and Windows systems. It takes minutes and sometimes multiple attempts to properly eject these drives from my Chromebook. I…

Covers cannot be removed without tools and will damage the disc, very slow writing speed, USB error writing to two of the five discs received. I was tired of constantly looking for a flash drive to transfer files to someone or make a quick copy, so I found this cheap set of 5 to keep a few pieces on hand that I don't want to give away . First the most ridiculous part, the covers! These little covers are *impossible* to remove by hand. What seem to get in their way are the little protrusions on…

Apparently it says 28.8GB, but it doesn't work at USB 2.0 speed. Not even USB 1.0 speed. The first one I used to transfer some photos took almost 35 minutes to download 345 images for a total of 80.6MB. Thinking it was a bad module I tried the next one with very consistent results. I formatted all 5 devices and started benchmarking. Via 3 computers and via ports 2.0 and 3.0. I got different times up to 54 minutes for the same file mentioned above. I've also tried every unit with text documents…

Let me start by saying that my wife and I share this account even though it is registered under her name. However, this review belongs to me, not you. I bought these to group project files, images, etc. They work great. I have used PNY flash drives in the past and have found them easy to use and very durable. I hope they continue this winning streak. Update as of late September 2020. Unfortunately my lucky streak ended as I was concerned this might happen with higher density USB sticks. A few…
