SanDisk 32GB Cruzer Fit USB 2.0 Flash Drive - SDCZ33-032G-G35

SanDisk 64GB Cruzer Fit USB Flash Drive - SDCZ33-064G-G35This is a reliable and very small USB type Thumb drive. It HAS THE LED INDICATION that flashes when the memory is being written to or read from, which seems to be something that is going away from the thumb drive market and if you want that option, YOU REALLY HAVE TO LOOK FOR IT TO VERIFY YOU ARE GETTING IT. Don't be confused with the new thumb drives that just have a decorative LED that lights when plugged in an active computer.- These thumb drives work well but are S L O W. They work well for music and do ok with movies but movies could use a faster reading drive if you are seeing short pauses now and then on the screen.May take more time to download large files of pictures or documents as well.- They are reliable, I have not had one fail and I have been working with a couple that have been written to, erased, formatted many times with no problem showing up.- as they are memory chips, they will have the same negative that the SSD memory drives have, that is if you write to them all the time in huge amounts, the life of the drive shortens with each write. Memory type drives have this flaw which is a by product of the memory material used. This is why I strongly suggest you keep a back up copy of anything written on a memory drive of ANY TYPE.If you do not require the lightening fast speeds and want a portable thumb drive, I recommend this thumb drive here.- As these thumb drives have a very SMALL foot print, you can lose them almost as easily as a micro memory card. I suggest getting one of those cheap USB hubs and store your small thumb drives in the USB HUB. It also helps to lable the drive if you can in some way so you know what is on it. This will become a concern if your collection of thumb drives grows to any sizable quantity.I recommend this drive for small file transfers and limited work, this is only because of the drives write and read speeds. As said before, this drive has been reliable to me and I have worked them over a bit lately.I do not know the seller and did not get any discount or merchandise for my random review.200628 1220

I love the microsize! Works really well for the Xbox 360(I have two plugged into the two USB ports in the front of the system), they don't hang out at all. Would be great for just about anything else where you really don't want a standard-size USB drive hanging out and potentially getting bent(it happens). Speed seems fine(I don't benchmark).

I bought this USB flash drive to do one thing: hang out as unobtrusively as possible for Unraid.For those that do not use Unraid, it requires you install the OS on a USB flash drive to allow for mobility by swapping to any system you want. It's great. Works great.And this drive is perfect for it. Unlike 99% of USB flash drives, this one is practically invisible. In fact, the best comparison is to imagine, if you have one, those Logitech Unified adapters that you use to hook up a wireless keyboard (like a K400) or a wireless mouse (G900/903). Or a cheapo bluetooth adapter. It's like that except it's 64GB of storage.Unraid doesn't really require lots of storage, but what it does give it room for is time for old age. Since Unraid is bound to the USB flash drive's mechanical ID, it's great to give it lots of room to provision space as the drive ages. And it's reasonably USB2-ish in speed.Didn't go with USB3 because if you read about people using USB3 sticks for Unraid (or Raspberry Pi for that matter) you find that USB3 has more of a tendency to fail because the drives tend to get hot and the controllers for them tend to get overly saturated.So that's what this represents. A fine enough drive in an incredible form factor. The only complain I have is how the overall body shape is so "round" that it's a little harder to remove than it should be even given its size. I kinda wish it was more boxy/angular.

it works well for unraid

I needed a good USB drive for music storage that I could leave plugged into my car stereo, so I searched for the smallest form factor I could find. San Disk has always built solid USB drives, but I was more than impressed with this one for such a small size. In my car, it is barely noticeable, and the same on my laptop. It's such a low profile that there's no need to remove it from the laptop when putting the computer in my bag or briefcase at the end of the day.The only negative I can offer on this drive is that it is SO small, you may lose it easily. There is no case or lanyard included with the drive, so this drive would probably be best for a semi-permanent installation either in your car, your laptop, or other device where you don't need to keep plugging and unplugging it.Very impressed with this tiny tiny drive, and will continue to support San Disk with products like this.

For relatively quick (yes, these are USB2, not USB3), cheap storage, these are small and affordable. I keep on plugged into each PC so I can do a quick copy, just in case, for important files. Also useful for shipping a bunch of photos to family via snail mail. For me, it's cheaper than paying for a larger drop box account.Get some fishing line and put a small loop of line on each one for a lanyard. Makes them easier to handle.

While the logical trend is to buy a flash drive with more and more capacity, it was the opposite case for me because the flash drive I was looking for needed to be 32GB or less. Why? I needed a replacement flash drive to connect to my car. After all, the car is not a computer. The fact that the car is set up with the ability to play music from flash drives at all is a step-up for me. I'm not the type to keep music stored on my smartphone and then pipe it into my car via Bluetooth. An independent external device is the way I want it, and this SanDisk 16GB Cruiser Fit USB 2.0 Flash Drive certainly fulfilled my wish.
