Review: A brilliant and fast downloading tiny flash drive. - As you can see from the photo, it’s very small. I thought the middle flash drive was small compared to the top normal sized flash drive. It’s a great drive, recognised and connected to my laptop and formatted to start transferring data straight away. I transferred a 46 Gb file from my laptop to this drive, went off and did something for 10 minutes and when I got back it had finished the transfer. That’s fast. I purchased this drive as I had been transferring data on a normal sized flash drive and accidentally knocked it lightly and because of this the drive was corrupted and I had to replace it. I took a chance on this one and I’m glad I did. £128gb for £12, great price and a very good design. A fantastic little flash drive that punches way above its size. So good I’ve purchased another one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anyone know the write speeds of this device?**
A: I have the 128GB version. The sustained sequential write speed is approx 28MB/s

**Q: Will this work with a sony bravia kd-55ag9 oled tv?**
A: I have the 64gb version of this plugged into my sony bravia 55 for recording and it works great.

**Q: sandisk have a reputation for going 'read only' (this has happened to me). Is this also prone to that ??**
A: Mine didn’t go read only, but was completely undetected after a few months of use.

**Q: The blurb says it includes sandisk secureaccess password protection. if i format the drive to ntfc will the password protection software be lost?**
A: Yes I am sure it will. It did for me. Formatting wipes the slate clean. You could perhaps copy the software before formatting and then reload afterwords. Not sure if that would work, but I think it would.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unbelievable Storage in a Tiny Size – A Must-Have USB Drive!
*by D***N on 22 February 2025*

I absolutely love the SanDisk 256GB Ultra Fit USB 3.2 Flash Drive! The size is unbelievably compact, it's amazing how so much storage fits into such a tiny device. It barely sticks out when plugged in, making it perfect for laptops, car audio, and other devices where a low profile USB is ideal. The speed is great, and transferring large files is quick and hassle free. I already own two of these, and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy more. In fact, I’ve had one of them for over two years, and it’s still working flawlessly! The convenience, reliability, and sheer capacity in such a small form factor make this one of the best USB drives I’ve ever used. Highly recommended!
