This is the best USB flash drive thumb stick. You can not prove me wrong. This topic should receive zero replies, and perhaps a sticky.

Thank you for your time.

No.
btw I didn't bump this.

yeah I bet 2008 would be really impressed with how small your flash dick is

Not USB 3.1, not metal unibody, not 64GB or greater.

I've owned these. They immediately overheat and throttle dramatically with any real use. Dat form-factor though.

still not USB 3.1

Bought three a couple years ago. Only complaint is that metal ring snaps after a few months. Otherwise, they're good.

Yeah, I bought two 128 GB ones about that size, and one of them burnt up in less than a year. I tried a data recovery place, and they said it was unrecoverable, which I'm guessing had to do with it size. It reminded me to get serious about backing shit up, if nothing else.
>>
>>58997156
reminder, if it doesn't have an activity LED, it's trash
>>
>>58997156

Own 2 64gb and 2 128gb

thermal throttles after a few GB transfer nothing recognizes it as a bootable ISO drive. Good price and good from small transfers thas about it

I've read much better things about he Samsung in equivalent form factor

What's the deal with Sandisk and Linux? I use one for parted magic and it freezes after booting, it cannot be accessed. Don't have this problem with Kingston or a generic one I have.

Works fine under windows and also for installing it

i disagree, in my opinion this drive is too small, and would easily be lost, not to mention the smaller usb devices are more difficult to remove.

This one is faster, prettier, and has better price/performance ratio. Also comes in 128 GB.

I'm running Linux Mint from an Ultra Fit, and I haven't noticed any throttling. (Not a live system, but a full install with read/write access.)

>>58999953
What model? I've never encountered that, and I've used several Sandisk sticks with Linux.

Thermal throttling on the Ultra Fit ruined it for me. If speed is important, do not buy. PNY is good but you lose the form factor.
>>
>>59000624
this is perfect for me
I only transfer at most a couple hundred mbs at a time so I don't have to worry about heat

Use a microSD usb adaptor.
Got a PNY one the other week. Discreet, works with nearly any device, has an activity light... Your move op.

No they aren't, they're even worse quality than Kingston even.

That's the Ultra Fit (USB 3.0). This is the Cruzer Fit (USB 2.0)
>>
>>59000624
I haven't used the Cruzer Fit but realistically they probably have the same performance because of the huge thermal throttling on this one. Sometimes I have to put it in the USB 2.0 port to even get it to work anyway, and it still gets extremely hot in there.

Got the BAR 128GB too. Very nice
>>
>>58999998
>That bump at the end
Jeez anon I almost threw up
>>
>>59000624

That one looks like the 128 GB one that died on me from overheating. I don't recall throttling either, but the heat was noticeable. If you're good about keeping your data backed up, I guess there's no reason not to use one.
>>
I have one of those for my car stereo op, it's cool there. Writes about 50mb/s and reads 80mb/s

But fuck those tiny sticks in casual use, they're easy to lose and hard to pull out of USB slots because there's nothing to grab.

Wtf is this shit tier naming? It's called a jump drive

>>59012013
Flash drive is the objectively superior name.

>>58997309
There's a 128GB version. It's USB 3.0. You will not saturate USB 3.0 with it, so 3.1 is useless.
>>
>>59004401
When did you last use a PNY thumbdrive? One of their SD cards got corrupt on me, but the USB 3.0 stick has been loyal for years.

If the cap is a separate piece then it's going to get lost. You're thumb USB flash stick memory jump travel GNU/Linux or GNU plus Linux drive is a shit.

I use one as a readyboost stick, it is always hotter than the sun.
>>
>>59005715
I had an ultra fit. It got super hot and the thing was so tiny I lost it. Have no fucking clue where it is. If you're rocking an single board rig, a couple of these would be great for extra storage.
>>
>>58997236
it's pretty damn good for $11.95 on Amazon. The 64GB is $18.48
