also, several reviews say that the write speed is rather slow.
If you want this form factor, buy the Samsung version. Much better than Sandisk.

1) Better construction. The Samsung's metal connector vs the SanDisk plastic. It is a real annoyance to have to dig the SanDisk shards out of a USB port. It would be even worse on my car which has a USB port inside the center console. An unnecessary risk to damaging the USB port which would be difficult to repair.
2) Performance. The SanDisk will overheat quickly and start to throttle down to a crawl during file transfers making it useless for managing large files. My Samsung does not have this problem.
Saying all that, these ultra small drives may simply fail faster, especially in the larger capacity, due to the physical compromises necessary for the miniaturization. This contradicts the manufacturer's positioning that these are "plug 'n stay" devices.

Great reviews (4.7/5) from 112,261 buyers who took the time to comment. Probably 5X that number didn't bother to review but were just content with the product.
I still preferred the $25 Samsung Fit for its better material construction and its much faster (up to 400MB/s) read speed (compared to 130MB/s). Some Samsung mini and micro thumbs get hot by design. They pull the heat out via the outer casing (which is sometimes metal). Much better than trapping it inside, with cool plastic parts. Plus, those Samsungs that I'm referring to have crazy writes speeds of 300-400MB/s.
Still, I'd feel very safe purchasing this product. If there were a strong history of massive failures over time, it would shop up with much greater frequency in the 112,000+ reviews.
For the SanDisk version, I'd store passive (with backups) data and media however. I wouldn't use it for continuous read/writes (i.e. exteneded memory).
1/2TB for $38 too. Tempting.
