No problems accessing the flash drive, and it worked fine with the USB 3.0 port on my computer running Windows 10. Unfortunately, after formatting it 5 times to install Linux, the drive started failing on every subsequent attempt . Probably fine for very infrequent use, but expect a very limited lifetime before failure. If you really need something solid, just switch to an external hard drive like I did.
