Capacity is nice. Drive is stupid. Sticks out at 90 degrees from any keychain. Blocks adjacent usb ports. Cheap and fast tho.
A 256Gb SSD alone runs around $15, and NVME to USB adapters are $10-$30. I don't know where you will find such a combo (from a well-known brand like Samsung) that is cheaper than OP.
Here's a way for anyone to check:

It's a utility app, not software that needs to be actually installed on your computer, so no need to go through an uninstall after.

I've purchased many different models of Samsung memory from Amazon over the past 5 years. I've never had one counterfeit, but I only purchase "new" and only with Amazon as the Seller.

Likely they would get a 1 tb ssd. So the math would be a little better. Performance would favor SSD. Size would favor the thumb drive.Price would be close enough to even.

The tiny one is also back on-sale again for $24.99 for the 256GB thumb drive:

Thanks. If speeds are the same, it's worth paying ~$2 more for one that size. The read speed spec is the same. Do you or does anyone else know about the write speed of that (small) one? The spec of the larger one in the OP is 200 Mbps.

Is it the "Toolkit"?

FWIW, I just bought a used one from Amazon and used the utility app to verify, which showed as a genuine product, and my Tesla was happy about it too.

Just for kicks, ran the utility on my OE Tesla Drive. Says "Genuine Samsung Product"

Tesla storage

3 thumbs down so far for stating a fact. Probably from the types that randomly keys Tesla's in parking lots because they can't afford one

Got a "Used - Like New" for $15.30 from Amazon Warehouse. I'll check it with the utility checker to make sure it isn't fake, then try it on the Tesla. If it's fake or doesn't work, I'll send it back. Otherwise a good doubling of my Tesla storage for 15 bucks.

The used one I got tested real on the utility checker.

It was already formatted as TESLADRIVE and had a folder for TelsaCam. With a date of February 2023. It also has scratches where it was inserted/removed a few times. But that seems to happen almost immediately on these metal USBs.

So I'm thinking whoever had it before was using it on a Tesla. Seems to work good. I guess whoever had it before had buyer's remorse, or maybe changed mind and got a 1 TB SSD drive or something.
