Samsung MUF-256AB USB Flash Drive 256 GB USB Type-A 3.1 (3.1 Gen 1) Black, Stainless Steel – USB Flash Drives (256 GB, USB Type-A, 3.1 (3.1 Gen 1), Swivel, 3 g, Black, Stainless Steel)

La verdad es que es una maravilla poder manejar un espacio tan grande en un Pen de semejante tamaño. Es cómodo, es pequeño, y gracias a su tamaño no sueles tener problemas en conectarlo a cualquier dispositivo, ya sea tv, ordenador, etc. como si ocurre con otros de mayor tamaño que al estar las entradas USB a veces tan pegadas si es de tamaño mayor no se pueden usar todas. La capacidad para mis necesidades va más que de sobra, aunque seguramente en un futuro saquen capacidades mucho mayores, pero como todo que va evolucionando. Otra de las cosas a tener en cuenta es la velocidad de transferencia de datos, para mí fue uno de los aspectos a tener en cuenta. Para que os hagáis una idea, ante una película por ejemplo que ocupe un tamaño de 4 o 5 GB en un Pen normal que pueda tardar unos 6-8 minutos aproximadamente aquí lo hace en 1-2 como mucho. Si tuviera que poner una pega es precisamente su tamaño, por el hecho de que al ser tan pequeño pues debes andarte más con ojo para no perderlo, pero vamos, teniendo cuidado no debe pasar nada.

Good build quality USB. Speeds can be better but not a bad buy for $40AUD.

I was a bit reluctant to purchase this because of the high price tag. Other brands sell the same capacity of drive for a fraction of the price, but now that I've had it for about a week and have been using it i'm very happy with my purchase. The speed is staggering and much better than any flash drive I've ever owned. The tiny size is a huge plus as well for laptop users who don't want an unweildly large drive sticking out of the port. My only concern is whether or not it will last as there are a few reviews citing problems later on. I will edit this review if I run into any problems.

I abandoned my usual brand well-known due to overheating and total loss of data on two occasions and decided to try Samsung. I am so glad I did. Superior in every respect. Small size, no heat problems and very reliable. From now on, I, ll stick with Samsung.

Purchased 2 of these little beauties for my laptop. One is permanently plugged into the laptop and runs Manjaro Linux 18.02 (KDE). Very discreet....only sticks out about 1cm from laptop. As regards speed in real world scenario (as opposed to Benchmark scenario), this little flash drive is much faster than any mechanical hard drive, and only a bit slower than SSD in my experience. I use "Clonezilla" to clone (make a perfect copy) of original Samsung Flash drive. The whole process takes about 28 minutes from start to finish and that is to copy 108 GB of data. That is a sustained transfer rate of 70MB per second continuously for almost half an hour...astonishing! Please bear in mind that operating systems like Linux are comprised of hundreds of thousands of small files, and flash drives are much slower at copying these sorts of files (or large numbers of small jpegs for that matter) than say a small number of large media files. It also runs relatively cool. Even after 30 minutes of copying files, it is warm, but still cool enough to touch. All in all another great Samsung product at a great price. Highly recommended.
