What customers are saying

The product is praised for its small, portable size, fast performance, and good value. Many users find it convenient for storing and transferring files, especially photos and music, and appreciate its compact design. Several reviewers recommend it as a reliable and durable option. However, some customers experienced compatibility issues with Windows 10 or felt the plastic casing was flimsy and prone to breaking. One reviewer also had the drive go missing, likely due to its small size.

    garbages read speed

    Reviewed by - October 27, 2025

    read speed only 2Mb/s, this was really a garbage from sandisk.. even if it was USB 2.0 but what you can do with read speed 2Mb/s ? copying 1Gb of data takes hours.

    Handy to just put in inner jeans front pocket

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - December 21, 2017

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I carry one of these around in the smaller pouch pocket that is inside a typical jeans front pocket. If I need to get files or share files on the go but don’t feel like lugging around the bulk of a larger external drive. Flash drives tend to be more durable so I find it’s usually better to load some files on these high capacity thumb drives than jostling around and plugging and unplugging external hard drives if not necessary. They are cheap nowadays also. Just remember to take out before doing laundry. I always double check all pockets.

    TERRIBLE PRODUCT FROM A RESPECTIBLE COMPANY

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - November 22, 2025

    Although this did not cost very much, I was only able to download one small file onto it. The second time, about a week later, my computer would not even recognize that I had inserted it into the usb port. So, I tried using all the other ports with the same result. I then inserted another Cruzer that I have had for some time, and the computer recognized it and read the files. Good thing I had not put more files on it thinking I had saved them. A complete waste of time and a few bucks

    Corrupt Cruze

    Reviewed by - October 25, 2025

    I could find no significant difference with the CRUZE series and other Sandisk flash drives. However,all of my stored data was 'corrupted' 48hrs later. This has never happened before with SanDisk products. So, BYE-BYE Cruze!

    Overall...very fast and no problems!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - October 20, 2017

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this flash drive for over a month now and it has been amazing. Yes, its small/compact, but the overall speed of transferring files has been awesome and no complaints at all. I highly recommend!

    Disappointed

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - December 22, 2018

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wasn't aware when I ordered it that it doesn't work with Windows 10. Had to buy another that did. Wasted a lot of time and held up my project. Maybe, it was my fault but, don't remember if it said otherwise.

    Smaller than I thought

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - June 4, 2017

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received the usb in the mail it was smaller than I thought it would be. I have to make sure I put it on a keychain because I might lose it. Other than that its a good product.

    Perfect for a gift

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - July 27, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If I need an inexpensive gift I buy few of these and people are always happy to get them. You can easily store and share some pictures and documents from your computers with others.

    Serves the purpose but flimsy construction

    Reviewed by - October 25, 2022

    Used to transfer data to 3d printers. The plug is made of ultra thin plastic that has broken on each one of these I own. I have ordered others that have a better construction
