This is a much better deal for ¢0.3 more. Speeds are more than twice as fast under 3.1 interface. It is backwards compatible with 3.0 and 2.0. and waterproof.

List price of $50 is totally worthless. The 256GB is 5% off at $26, with list price of $28.

Has been around this price (within 5%) for several months now; hoping it may drop more during holiday season.

I happened to have tested this drive for work and compared it to the Samsung dual USB-C/USB-A drive. The Sandisk got around 27MB/s write, 110MB/s read. The Samsung drive got 112MB/s write, 400MB/s read. This was using Blackmagicdesign's Disk Speed Test.

The biggest deal killer for the Sandisk was how hot it got and the performance takes a big hit when it gets hot. Bottom line: its not a good drive if you plan on using it frequently or for large files. I wouldn't keep it plugged in all the time either.

Its too bad because having the USB-A and USB-C on the drive without an adapter is a big plus compared to the Samsung. It might be fine for people that uses these drives lightly and are patient.

I bought https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MU...07D7P4SY4/ instead. It's faster (300 MB/s) and much smaller, though USB Type A only.

Not recommended Sandisk Ultra because it has darn slow write speed. Get Sandisk Extreme Pro.

Don't these usually have USB2 or less write speeds? The Samsung ones usually are a lot faster for read and write.
