Problem:It will take you DAYS to fill this drive. LITERALLY! Because it's so big? No. It's just that slow.<br /><br />Blackmagic Disc Speed test clocks the write speed at about 4MB/s. Read speed is better at 22MB/s. By comparison my hard drive writes at 170MB/s and reads at 200MB/s. Apples to oranges yes, but at 4MB/s you should be able to fill it in a couple hours, in reality it took 7 hours to copy 8GB.<br /><br />It's small and SanDisk stuff is usually pretty reliable, so if you like small and you aren't in a hurry, go for it.<br /><br />If you can deal with a normal sized thumb drive you are better off going with the SanDisk Extreme where you should see 22-27MB/s. If you are lucky enough to be in a USB 3.0/money-no-object situation you might try something like the Lexar JumpDrive Triton. It has write speeds around 106MB/s and reads around 169MB/s
Solution:
Great to look at. Not so great to use.
