Patriot Usb Flash Drives

[0.03 lb] I'm not the best at understanding flash drive transfer rate science but I do know that when I use Patriot drives they work faster than other brands of drives, usually but not always. The build and designs on the Patriot drives are top notch quality and of course they do what they are suppose to do, store and move data in and out. After many years of trying to find flash drives that would work faster, not get hot while connected and show positive signs of speedy data transfer I truly have settled on Patriot as the go-to best of the industry.

[32 GB] If you have USB 2 drives on your older computer then stay with PNY 64 GB Flash Drives. They work and are FAT 32 formated. No Problems with these Flash Drives. I tried 128 GB Flash Drives that were suppose to work on USB 2 thru USB 3. My first file copied to them and the memory crashed and burned. I ordered the PNY 64 GB USB 2 and they are excellent. Smaller GB but always work.

[128 GB] These USB flash drives are very convenient for keeping my files backed up and available wherever I go.

[2] I have a decent collection of older and newer USB flash drives. The Ruggard Neoprene Pouch holds at least 10 drives. This is great for travel. Instead of flopping around my backpack in the pockets the drives can all be neatly stored and protected in this nice compact pouch. The bands hold the drives in place tightly and it should do a great drive of protecting all the random USB drives I have. [I received this item in exchange for my honest review]

[0.03 lb] Nano USB flash drives can be a real chore to remove, especially from recessed ports -- the smallness that helps keep them from being caught on something can also make them difficult to get a hold of. This PNY flash drive contains a very useful hole perfect for a lanyard, keychain, etc. Performance-wise, the PNY flash drive tested fine on my old hardware's add-on USB 3.0 ports. Machine is running Win 10 and old HD Tach (see photo). Interestingly, HD Tach froze up trying to test another 64GB flash drive, so the PNY is doing something correctly the other did not. Overall, the flash drive seems well-made, with a metal connector, not plastic. No winking LED. The connector cap is snug enough that it should keep from falling off.

[64 GB] These small flash drives are made exceptionally well. Having both a USB-A and USB-C connector is very convenient when I attach these to different devices, and it is nice that there are two detents so the operating positions pop into place as you rotate it. The only thing that slightly surprised me is that this 256GB storage device is formatted as FAT32. As such, I merely reformatted it to exFAT, which is no big deal so I still gave it 5 stars.

[256 GB] I've had good success with Transcend CFast cards, USB flash drives, and now SD cards. This one works great in my Canon T3i and T5's.

[128 GB] I like PNY flash drives because the USB connection port does not try to slide into the storage slot when one plugs it in teh computer port like the sliding storage style drives. Never had a problem with this brand.

[1.35 lb] HOLDS SECURELY. Works great for all of my flash drives. Some bulkier USB-A drives are VERY secure. My thinner USB-C flash drive still feels secure enough even though it slides in and out with less resistance than the type-A drives. SLEEVES. Note that the sleeves are open-ended elastic bands. You can slide contents out from either end. ROOMY-ISH. When all slots are full and the pouch is zipped up, the natural closed state is gentle, NOT one of forced compression. They're touching, but no drives will be squished. If you're concerned about drive-on-drive contact and want zero wiggle, there's enough room that you could fit a small pad in between the two sides before closing it up.

[Black] This is exactly as it states. 30 slots for USB flash drives with the foam and inserts precut. The case is very durable and probably way more than actually needed but gives you a great sense of protection.
