Enfain 32GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 10-Pack - Swivel Design, Reliable Data Storage for Home, Office, School - Bulk USB Memory Sticks Compatible with PC, Laptop, Mac (Black)

Just like many other reviewers, I got these drives, and about 5 worked fantastically out of the box, 3 worked but with degraded performance, and 2 were just completely miserably slow. You do have to play around with the format options and cluster size on these, but after you find that sweet spot, they're fantastic for the price. 5/5 overall with a 4/5 for ease of use for that reason. The slowest one out of them all was only copying at 4 kb/s originally, wish I had read the very helpful comments here before I threw that one in the trash! Exfat with a 32 kb cluster size worked great on the one that had the 2nd worst performance out of the box. TL:DR - These work great and are more than worth the cost, but you have to play around with the formatting options to get the performance.

I purchased these flash drives and received them on Mar 8th I ordered the 10 All Black 32 GB flash drives. As soon as I received this product I opened one up to see the technical side of the drive and everything was good! I also put them though tests to see the exact read and write speeds. (Write speed = 7.15 MB/s, Read Speed = 25.05) These speeds may seem bad at first but if you didn't read the description for their speeds that's your fault. The read speed is about 1 MB/s over what they advertise. I also tested for corrupted storage and overwritten files, nothing was overwritten or corrupted. For $26.48 aka $2.65 Per flash drive I would have to say its a bargain for anyone who needs boot drives, Photo storage, Small data Transfers, Documents, and anything that may be small. These drives come formatted in FAT 32 and if needed can be easily reformatted. (I ran all tests in Ubuntu Linux with F3) I already have referred friends of this product and they are going to purchasing this product.

EDIT: After I left the review below, Sunny from Enfain reached out to me to see if we could fix the slow drive problem. They suggested reformatting all the drives to exFAT format. Once I did that, I was able to copy around 1.7GB to one of the drives (that had performed very slow originally) in a little over 4 minutes. Not bad for a USB 2.0 drive. I'm sure others know of this workaround, I'm just a bit slow! So, I changed my original 1-star review to a 5-star review, not just because the drives are usable but for the incredible support of the company. They reached out within hours of my review going live and I really appreciate the solution. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from them again. Thank you Sunny! ORIGINAL REVIEW: I thought I had a bad flash drive after the first in the 10 pack took a very long time to copy a few files. I popped in another drive and it also took about the same amount of time. Maybe 2 out of the package of 10 could be bad? Not so lucky. They aren't actually bad, just INCREDIBLY SLOW, to the point of being almost entirely unusable for anything but an occasional small file. While one of these got to 57% in about 45 minutes when I tried to copy 1.8GB of data, I popped in one of my other drives I had purchased about the same time (Kootion brand) and had all the data copied over in under 2 minutes! I realize there is a difference between USB 2.0 and 3.0, but not THAT much! I'll be sure to stick with other brands from now on, money is far too scarce to waste on things like this!

This is my second set of these flash drives. They definitely do what they are supposed to do! One word of caution (and the only reason these didn't get 5 stars): If you are backing up larger files such as videos, images, design files, etc., these are going to take FOREVER! I would recommend using a 3.0 flash drive for larger file formats. However, these work just fine for Word documents, forms, PDF's, etc. I ordered these for a combination of things. I am using these to back up my own writing files, and some templates and things I use regularly. I did have to buy faster flash drives for my image and design files because these just weren't cutting it.

Normally we use a higher-end Branded 3.0 flash drive in the studio but we needed a few extra quickly. They arrived the next day, as usual, Amazon over packages but the box the flash drives come in is perfect, well-protected. We ended up using all 10x the same day with no issues. These are not fast drives but they work perfectly for most storage applications and you can't beat the price. I will definitely order more to keep on hand. Recommend for storage applications.

I have hundreds of photos and over 1000 mostly handwritten papers to scan and share with 20 people. I t will take years to do all the scanning so I bought 32 gb thumb drives with the idea that I could start out with photos and give out the thumb drives, to be added to as more gets done. I scanned 300 photos as tiffs and jpegs and put only the jpegs on the thumb drives with tiffs available by request. . The jpegs took 3.75 gb. Tiffs would have been another 26 gb, which would use up most of the drives. All tested fine. The curious thing was we used three computers to upload the photos to the drives - An Apple laptop, a 15 year old Apple desktop and a pc laptop. The old apple desktop took 16 minutes to upload 300 photos. The pc took 45 minutes and we gave up on the Apple laptop after 3 hours, when it still had 25 photos to go. Moral to the story - the speed of uploading these may well depend on your device, not the thumb drives.

Very good package deal on these data storage devices. Will buy more when needed.

I've purchased a couple of these packages, and have had to throw away at least two from each shipment due to extremely low transfer speeds. Most work perfectly, but one or two per package have transfer rates so low (i.e. ~1Kbps) that they are functionally useless. That said, it's still not a terrible value.

Es un producto que funciona bien tal como se espera de él y el precio es atractivo, así que me ha parecido una buena compra.

velocidad de lectura/escritura regular, por el precio la recomiendo... saludos
