PNY P-FD32GX10ATT03-MP 32GB Attaché 3 USB 2.0 Flash Drive,Black (Pack of 10)

Was skeptical because of the great price and the number of fake drives out there. First thing I did was use ValiDrive to confirm that these were actually 128gb. These all checked out. Next I loaded 120gb of video which took about 5 hours. I then confirmed that they all would actually play which they did flawlessly. Since I am only using these to store and play media they work great for me. If I had to constantly write to these drives I might choose a faster one.

Works well

Today, thumb drives are difficult to chose from. You are told basic info, called click bait, to get you to the info page. This is done because most buyers will purchase after clicking onto the info page, at least 50% but bet it is more. But they dont Tell you the entire story, only what they must. If they dont tell me drive speeds, I won't purchase from them. THESE DRIVES, the Attache thumb drive, are 2.0, and in a high end drive, 2.0 is not a terribly slow speed. These drives are slow. But that is not all bad. For us who are using them for back ups or in my case, for my audio book and music storage and play back, slow is not important, it will play back just fine. but if you are unloading or reading huge files, pics, documents, you will find time for a coffee or sandwich during the save operation. Speed seems connected with size of memory as well. Unless you are buying fairly inexpensive drives, the speed should be acceptable. But I did find with PNY 512gb drives that because of the drive and/or some action inside the memory control programs, they are very slow, even the supposed fast speed drives. I am guessing this may be true of all very large memory thumb drives. -- I attempted to run a linux op sys from that drive, yes it is possible to do this, but because of the memory management in the drive, it would run then slow way down, run fast, then slow down. I ended up using them for back up drives The memory management has to move memory around, this is needed because flash memory (the same with SSD's) do not fragment files like hdds can. They remove the entire file, and rewrite it in a block of memory as a whole file. With the event of write wear damage which leads to the early demise of memory in thumb drives and especially SSD's, this file manipulation takes time away and decreases the life of the memory faster than on hdds. The HDD do not suffer from write wear. These drives do not have led activity lights. This was almost a no sale for me. Only the price vs memory size prompted me to buy them. That activity light can be very important at times and I dont understand why the manufacturers are cheaping out. They operate like any other thumb drive, are easy to use, and are easy to lose. I strongly recommend getting a small case to carry your thumb drives in if you take them with you. That is the joy of portability. However, NEVER hang them from your key chain. You will be sorry at some point. You have been warned. I have not experienced a failure yet but, as in all drives, I strongly recommend you save to 2 drives, one to work on, the other as a back up drive, just in case your working drive fails. These are memory drives. They CAN BE USED FOR BACK UPS of files but know what you are doing. Memory drives use a residual amount of electricity, even when unplugged from the computer to maintain the memory. If you make a back up of an important document or pics, you need to keep them in a cool place, and yearly, plug them in the computer to refresh that residual energy charge in the drive. in my experience, Thumb Drive Failure has never happened when being used as a back up storage. I have experienced failure by user error. Thumb drives are fairly safe for your data, but as I said, if the data is important, make a second back up on another thumb drive. Thumb drives are great for holding files and data. they are pretty much reliable to the point I had used them to back up operating systems when the virus attacks were so bad they would shut down my computers. At that point, thumb drives were priceless. IF you are not needing Fast read/write speeds, but are looking for an extra amount of memory space to store or access data, These may be adequate for you. with that I will RECOMMEND THEM. However IF you need something that reads and writes fast, look at the better, more expensive drives and pay attention to the speeds. If the seller does not post the drive speeds, then it is a SLOW speed drive and you need to look else where. I will repost if I learn anything more about these drives I do not know the seller and did not receive any money or product for my random review. 230412 1147

I bought these to give some files to a few people without needing the drive back. They're cheap for a 10-pack and I accepted these aren't the best for long-term use or durability. The plastic cover slide is a bit sticky and tight but works; the body is fairly solid feeling and the connector fits with a nice feel. The plastic cover slide may eventually wear and loosen over repeated use as the only thing keeping it from sliding off is a plastic bit on the body. They do seem to read as 32GB (28GB formatted) on Windows as many reviews say but I haven't bothered filling it to test for capacity as my needs are low single digit GBs. Buy expecting 16GB and you'll probably be content with this product. It may be that PNY simply doesn't have enough 16GB chips so they pawn off some second-rate 32GB chips at a slightly lower price. Or they don't really have a 16GB anymore or mislabeled a bunch of 32GBs.

I bought these for backing up family photos and videos. They work great! The transfer and open speeds are excellent and they can store quite a bit! They're compatible with regular laptops and Blu-Ray / DVD players with a USB read port! No kidding! I was able to share family photos on the tv and not a laptop. I love the design as well, no cap to lose track of, just slide, plug and play!

Absolutely worth every penny! Fantastic pricing on moderately decent storage space. Anything up to 1TB, is unrealistically expensive right now, so purchasing smaller drives was a requirement of rapidly rising RAM and storage costs.

A LOT OF SPACE AND MUCH CHEAPER THAN OTHER VENDORS

Trabajan muy bien para ver películas en la smart tv aún con películas a 60 FPS están a muy buen precio hasta el momento ninguna me ha fallado espero así sigan

Unfortunately, it isn't 5-stars as 12 of the 50 are difficult to open and close. Some are so still/tight that you need to press the flashdrive head into the table and hold the sleeve to close it shut... fix that QC issue and it'll be 5-stars.

Good

Excellent value and really good quality

Working as expected.
