Sandisk Extreme Pro Flash Drive Review

After buying the drive, I advise you to format the file system with 128 Kb sectors in exfat, initially the drive was also formatted in exfat, only the sectors are divided into megabytes, which makes sense only for storing fat megabyte / gigabyte files, and all small files (in kilobytes or bytes) will occupy those very megabytes and waste precious space on the drive for nothing. For example, a folder with the game Counter Strike 1.6, which weighs 600 megabytes, takes up 7 gigabytes on a flash…

After reading the reviews before buying, I bought this flash drive. I liked everything about her right away. And on the advice of the "wise men" who have already purchased and written comments here, I formatted it immediately to NTFS. I installed the programs for the secret that go to it, transferred my most secret files there, and on top I also password-protected the curious with Bitlocker. Everything worked exactly until the third copy. They stopped seeing computers (tested on several…

I bought some text documents not for bulky files, but for work, I have enough for my eyes, the speed pleased me, when transferring files to the NAS everything is also fast and efficient, I am quite satisfied with the purchase.

I’m changing it under warranty, it’s a long and dreary kanesh, I didn’t believe the reviews I read earlier that a drive with a 30-year warranty from the manufacturer becomes unusable in a month, but the fact is on the face .

Gave it to myself for my birthday but had to return it. In this device, despite the fact that it appears to be a flash drive, SMART is implemented. But it is implemented in such a way that it is impossible to look at it without tears. The most important information - the amount of information read and written - is not in it, these fields have zeros. The temperature always shows 8 degrees. Also, according to information from SMART, the flash drive is dead. This would be acceptable if the flash…

I do not advise. Buy only if you are critical of the speed of writing and reading. In other cases, an unjustified waste of money. Some pros: A flash drive that has no analogues on the market in terms of write and read speed. Got cons: It gets very hot, even when the computer is turned off. It probably won't last long if you use it regularly. The case is large, it is inconvenient to pull out the connector.

I use safe extraction, but sometimes it is not detected. There is a sound that I stuck, but the disk in the explorer does not show, even if I insert / pull it out several times. Solution for win10 and other windows versions: Control Panel / Devices and Printers. We find our flash drive - remove the device. We pull it out of the port, insert it - it works.

I wanted to upload a backup to it in order to reinstall the system. Everything was recorded not as fast as I wanted - the speed dropped from 200+ in a couple of minutes to ~ 50 megabytes per second. The fairy tale grew a little, but I was not upset - the system was reinstalled in less than an hour.

I have been using fast flash drives and sd cards from sandisk for many years. I trust this manufacturer for quality, design and speed without any complaints. The price, of course, is not the lowest, but on the other hand, it is not cosmic, taking into account the proposed characteristics.

With its pros: Large volume. Paul Terra is no joke. In fact, this is an ssd in a flash drive case, so it’s really very fast. 250MB / s for recording gives out stably, I'm sure that it can be higher Its cons: it gets very hot, I feel if you write something on it for a long time, it can simply burn out.

Yes, everything seems to be ok, on the advice I immediately pasted adhesive tape on the serial because the truth seems to be easily erased from there .

If you decide to buy, varnish these letters, order a laser engraving and take a picture of a flash drive. Has pros: High speed, large volume, interesting retractable design, metal body, pleasant to the touch. Has some cons: Broke after a month and a half of use. Not defined on any computer. Lost data. The letters are very easy to erase, not even just erased, but split and crumble like putty.

Different pros: The most important advantage is the speed of reading and writing. Almost corresponds to the declared characteristics. Got cons: - Instead of 420MB of reading, we managed to reach 350MB - After re-recording 212 GB with the subsequent deletion of files, the recording took 5-7 minutes longer.

Some pros: I have the first series with usb 3.0, very fast, write speed from 150 mb per second. up to 190 , depends on the files , never let me down ! With its cons: the retractable design seems not reliable (although it has been in use for 3 years, everything works), it gets very hot when you dump a lot of information

I bought this 128 GB drive a long time ago and put it in my closet. Has been in the box for about a year. Then I urgently needed to quickly transfer a large amount of files through a USB flash drive, I remembered about it so as not to wait a long time for the recording. On the computer where I was supposed to take the files, there was HDD Sentinel software that monitors the health of the drives. So, right after the connection, and this was the second connection in the life of the flash…

There are no claims to the manufacturer at all, they can exchange the goods for a new, big, big claim to the Online Trade online store itself, which, to put it mildly, did not act nicely. I handed over the flash drive on the 10th day after receiving it, an answer comes from Hong Kong saying that it should not be compatible, the flash drive is working fine, I refused to accept it, I wrote another paper for a refund, another answer comes, they changed their shoes, as they say, they say that they…

The flash drive itself is not bad, but there are disadvantages that are not reported by the manufacturer. As the flash drive fills up, the write speed drops significantly. If on an empty flash drive the write speed is 190 Mbps, then when the flash drive is half full, it drops to 70 Mbps on the exFAT file system. If the flash drive is divided into several sections, then the recording speed will be even less, in the region of 10-20 Mbps. Under warranty, they replaced it with a more productive…

I’ve been using it for a couple of months, on large files the speed is really up to 280 mb / s, but with a trifle it’s problematic and 80 mb / s, although it is designed for large volumes. The USB port eject mechanism is retractable and has a very rounded hook. if the hands are smeared with cream or just greasy, then the first time they will lie whether it will turn out. At the same time, the mechanism itself does not seem to be of high quality. In general, the view must be said like that of a…

In general, this flash drive worked for exactly one month and survived three file copying sessions, after which it ceased to be visible on the computer (the computer recognized the device, but did not see its memory and recorded data). Communication with Sandisk support confirmed that this malfunction is beyond repair. The company exchanges such devices for new ones for free, but what's the point with such low reliability? Restoring data from a flash drive of this size and type of memory, if…

Has pros: Speed. Form factor - fixed USB plug. Volume. Compatibility - while everywhere it was read without problems. Works great with easy2boot (for those who understand ;-) ) With its cons: Gets a little warm. The first copy came defective (the controller is visible, the memory is not visible) - the seller replaced the goods, for which respect to him ✊🏻
