Apacer AH356 USB Flash Drive - 64GB

mid range performance, I bought 2, the retraction system is VERY frustrating, it retracts when plugging it in, (the lock doesn't hold) I prefer the micro Samsungs mid range performance, I bought 2, the retraction system is VERY frustrating, it retracts when plugging it in, (the lock doesn't hold) I prefer the micro Samsungs

Using usb 3.1 slot I get 19-22mbs write speed. Using usb 3.1 slot I get 19-22mbs write speed.

Ok, the last time I bought a USB drive was maybe 2012. This thing is far smaller, cheaper, nicer looking, faster, and larger capacity.
I bought this for a boot flash drive 4 weeks ago. Used it for its intended purpose and now I have a backup imagine of my windows on it for safe keeping :)

Cons? Uhhhh I wont sort my life out and flip my pancakes. But, will hold just under 32 gigs of data in a small and reliable formfactor for a great price?
Yes, definitely.
I probably will even get a couple more just to have on hand!! Ok, the last time I bought a USB drive was maybe 2012. This thing is far smaller, cheaper, nicer looking, faster, and larger capacity.

Read speed is about 95MBps, but the write speed is quite slow. Works well as a media to install Windows and Linux. Read speed is about 95MBps, but the write speed is quite slow. Works well as a media to install Windows and Linux.

Works as it should. Feels a little flimsy being a retractable model but if you retract it every time after use it should be fine! Does the job very well. Delivery of item was fast too!

Great transfer speeds, true to the backwards compatibility aswell. Will buy more when needed. Great transfer speeds, true to the backwards compatibility aswell. Will buy more when needed.

I received my order in 3 days and am very satisfied with the quality and function. I would buy these again. I received my order in 3 days and am very satisfied with the quality and function. I would buy these again.

The retractable design is flawed. When inserting the connector into your device the device you are using pushes the connector back into the drive. It's a waste of money.

Had it for a little while now, no issues. Transfer speed is good. Had it for a little while now, no issues. Transfer speed is good.

I've been using literally hundreds of these (and the earlier versions) for over 8 years. Only 2 or 3 have ever failed for me, although I'm only using a few small files on each. The push out design of the USB is not the greatest, but I'm used to it. I will continue to buy them as they've been reliable and are a good price.
