## Description

Review: Fast, Reliable, and Great Value! - SanDisk Ultra 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive is an excellent storage solution for everyday use. With plenty of space for photos, videos, documents, and more, the 128GB capacity easily handles large files without slowing down. Transfer speeds are impressive thanks to USB 3.0 — I experienced fast read/write performance, making backups and file transfers quick and hassle-free (much faster than older USB 2.0 drives). The slim, lightweight design makes it easy to carry in a pocket or on a keychain, and the sliding connector protects the plug without needing a cap. Durability feels solid, and it’s compatible with both laptops and desktops. Great option for students, professionals, and anyone who needs dependable portable storage at a fantastic price. Highly recommend if you want speed, capacity, and reliability in one compact USB drive!
Review: Great name still giving high quality at decent prices. - Bought this for doing the navigation updates in the car and it has been perfect, my old drive was sketchy and not to Sandisk standards so updates did not always go well even failed a couple times altogether which made me look for this and this one has done 4 updates on mapping without a single glitch. It is reliable ,read / write is fast, and the closing up feature is better for me than a cap on the end. I have always preferred Sandisk for portable cards and sticks and glad that I chose them again with this and the 128G stick I bought same time for storage. Very highly recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does my transfer speed slow down from 65mb/s to 13mb/s after a few seconds?**
A: I assume you are using Windows.  Windows shows the rate at which data is being read from the source file - not the rate it is being written to the destination.  So, why does it start really fast and get slower?

File copies happen rather like moving things over a conveyor belt. At the sending end is the source file, at the receiving end is the destination file. The conveyor belt is actually a section of the computer's memory.  When the file transfer starts, the belt is empty and the hard drive hardware is fast, so the first bit of the source file is read really quickly, but as the belt gets full the rate at which it runs becomes governed by how fast the data coming off the other end can be written to the destination. When the destination is a flash drive, it won't be anything like as fast as a hard drive. Thus, the copy starts fast, but then slows down to the speed of the destination device.

So, the copy speed indication given by Windows is showing how much has been read from the source, not how much has yet been written to the destination.  If your computer has a large memory capacity (RAM) then many gigabytes of your copying file can be in transit (on the belt if you like) at any given moment.   HTH.

**Q: Does this USB drive flash  at all when or when not in use?**
A: Posted 5th May 2018. Please note SanDisk Customer Care have advised that the 128 GB (SDCZ48-128G-U46) has been produced both with and without an internal data transfer LED, so you could receive either version when ordering this.

**Q: Is this Unisex?**
A: No, it's gender neutral, but mines called Dave.

**Q: I bought the 64gb usb 3.0 flash drive and their are no lights, Help please**
A: I have 128Gb it has very faint blue light when inserted .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another reasonable , reliable and nicely priced offering from Sandisk. With decent speeds too.
*by L***Y on 4 May 2021*

For me and USB flash drives , I find SanDisk to be the most reliable of brands , especially if you're sticking to the lower and mid range priced products. Sure they're usually not the fastest , but I have found after owning dozens of different USBs from different brands , that somehow Sandisk never fails me. For over a decade I have bought least a few dozen different Sandisk USB flash drives (From USB 1 - USB 3) and none of them have failed me. When I say failed , I mean none have them have stopped working or none of them have started to behave strangely. None of them have even had any short terms problems lost me any files either. For that , Sandisk have my trust. They are reliable products. but not necessarily the fastest. I have also flash disks from many other brands too. I have bought less from other brands and some of those brands , I have had a few of those drives fail or just have something wrong that makes them work strangely. Some of those flash drives have also gone bad temporarily at times and lose/corrupt data and files. Some of these brands are even regarded as trust worthy and well established. It's funny I bought way more Sandisk branded USB Flash drives and none of them caused problems or failed. I bought way less from the other brands and some of those brands had failures.(One brand in particular had a pretty high failure/fault rate) Enough about my thoughts on the brand , now onto the product itself. The Sandisk Ultra seem to be their most widely availible and affordable USB 3 flash drives they've been making in the past few years. It's their among cheapest USB 3 and the Ultra actually comes in other variations that share similar prices. (The rubber-like Ultra Trek and the Metal Ultra Flair) Today we'll be looking at the plastic one. Sandisk USB 3 Ultras , probably aren't that fast for most people going by USB 3 standards , but if you came from USB 2 , the difference in speed feels like quite a lot. The Ultra also tends to be quite a bit faster than a lot of other Flash drives within in the same price range from other brands too. But the Ultra tends to be a little bit more expensive than these slower flash drives. The main difference I can tell when comparing it to these slightly slower USB 3 flash drives from other brands that are similarly priced , is that there seems to be alot less buffering when writing. These other flash drives can sort of achieve faster write speeds than Ultra , but only in short bursts , and then they have to buffer down to USB 2 like speeds for a few seconds , then go back to fast burst , then slow buffer , fast burst , then slow buffer .... etc ... (Buy a really cheap Kingston or Integral drive for example to see this happen) I noticed that USB 3 Drives from Sandisk don't seem to do this. They seem to maintain a steady write speed instead . There's a lot less pausing (In most cases almost none) to buffer , so I think Sandisk uses much more efficient chips to process it all , even in their cheaper flash drives. Maintaining an overall steady slower write speeds , seems to be overall much faster , than a cheaper flash drive that can't maintain their fastest speeds for long , as those ones tend to pause for a few seconds to allow for buffering , which almost makes their short term speed advantage redundant. A good analogy is almost like the Tortoise and the hare. The Sandisks are slow and steady , keep on marching at a steady pace and finish earlier. While the other brands cannot maintain their fast speeds for long and have to take frequent pit stops to catch their breath and buffer , so somehow finish later than the tortoise. So overall the Sandisk Ultra is a fairly good speed for it's price when it comes to USB 3. It beats alot of similarly priced flash disks from other brands around the same price , due to a lot less buffering. The main bad things about the plastic version , is well it's plastic case. I've owned dozens of Sandisk over the years and despite me having my full trust in terms of reliability , it pains me to say they created tons of stinkers when it comes to physical designs of their outer shell/casing. Especially with their extensively Cruzer USB 2 range. They had tons of variations of the Cruzer line up in the USB 2 era , it's like they didn't know when to stop , trying to out do itself in making awkwardly shaped designs. I wish they would stop creating flash drives in unconventional shapes and just back to producing the simple classic small rectangular / oblong slider , they were using for many of their USB 1 flash disks and the first few iterations of their USB 2 flash disks too. Those were the best. The plastic Sandisk Ultra USB 3 , is one of it's worst designs in their history my opinion. Which is a huge shame , because it seems to be their most widely available / produced and distributed model of USB 3 . The main disapointment is the tail end of the platic portion of the body , that the drive resides in is made of a very thin plastic and looks like it would be very easy to break. I remember reading a review that it was compared to the plastic that you would probably find on a cheap free toy prize, that you would find in a box of cereal. I unfortunatly tend to agree with that observation. Sorry Sandisk you real cheaped out on this one. In combination that the type sliding style method they chose is also slightly awkward to use , you shouldn't be too surprised if the thin plastic will snap one day if you're not careful. Another thing I noticed , is that they skimped out in another area, with newer revisions of this model. I have actually bought quite a few of these plastic Sandisk USB 3 Ultra flash drives over the years , and I noticed in earlier versions of this product : there was a blue LED light that blinked during data reading/transfer. Later revisions of the same model , seemed to have removed/omitted this blue LED light , presumely to save on costs. Although I guess it was not essential , it's still helpful in a way to still have the LED light. I do hate it when products have features taken away , especially when it's done coverly without drawing attention. So that's another downer for me. Overall despite the physical short comings , the Sandisk Ultra is still a reliable USB 3 Flash drive on the inside , that won't cost you too much. Although I do recommend actually you go for the rubber-like Sandisk Ultra Trek which I think has a better form factor if you don't mind lids. The Trek feels more sturdy and seems to have the same speed performance as the plastic . I have yet to try the metal Ultra Flair , but I'd assume it's the same on the inside too , since it shares the same name : Ultra. Ultra Plastic , Ultra Flair and Ultra Trek all share a similar price range , especially if you buy direct from Amazon. It's all a matter of preference in the outer shell/case. Although, if you can spare another extra few pounds , you might want to try Sandisk Extreme Go . Which is has a pretty significant speed boost over the Ultra and with less buffering , without breaking bank too much. without setting foot into premium territory. but in the end the Sandisk Ultra is a good choice for an reliable, reasonable fast, lower end USB 3 Flash drive at an affordable price. I still recommend it .
