SanDisk Ultra Luxe USB 3.1 128 GB

Nothing extra

Stylish, fast and capacious flash drive from SanDisk, which will appeal to people who appreciate drives with a simple classic design. It has no sliders to push the connector out of the case, no protective caps or adapter caps that are constantly lost. Instead, a simple oblong case with a USB connector on one side and a notch on the other to hang it on a carabiner or keychain.

Speed up to 150MB/s

At a very affordable price of just over $20, the SanDisk Ultra Luxe USB 3.1 boasts decent speeds. According to official data, the buyer receives a peak of 150 MB / s when reading and it is not clear how many MB / s for writing, since the manufacturer did not make these data public. In tests, when recording a movie on a 4 GB flash drive, the “speedometer” showed about 58 MB / s, and this is a very decent result. And during read operations, the counter even slightly outstripped the claimed speed, stopping at around 153 MB / s. At the same time, the speed drawdowns were of an insignificant nature, and the case itself practically did not heat up.

SanDisk Proprietary Software

A small bonus to SanDisk Ultra Luxe USB 3.1 is a package of proprietary software from SanDisk, which allows you to create a secure folder with support for 128-bit AES encryption or recover accidentally deleted or lost files. An excellent bonus against the background of penny no-name drives from aliexpress.
