Yeah, not interested either, more into 40 USB sticks.

You could consider buying three of these and then throwing 20 away. Could work!

Back to $244

usb 2, man. for that price i'd rather get an sdd for that storage.

What are people doing with these many usbs?

I will be using them to store the hockey pictures for my son's hockey team. I will need 15 sticks, one for each player. I take pictures of my son's hockey team during their games. At the end of the season, I used to take the best 20 pics for each player and purchase the Costco photobook with faux leather cover. It was only $10 each and it was a steal. Costco cancelled this option during the pandemic. So this year I will give the players all of their photos on a usb stick. This is a cheap way to give each player some photos of themselves in action. The only downside is the players cannot see each other's photos at the end of season party because the photos are on the stick and not in a bound book.

Why not just upload all the photos somewhere and send a link to each player and they can download their own pictures plus view each others? if your not printing them out for hard copy seems pointless to buy usb sticks and hand them out when you can just put the pictures online in dropbox or something.....

I imagine it's more convenient to spend a couple of bucks and be one and done rather than having to coordinate sending transfer info, troubleshooting with people having issues, figuring out workarounds for people without good internet or limited permission to access it, potentially dealing with complaints if you stop paying a subscription to a storage service but they never grabbed it expecting them to always be there, etc.

I know personally over the years I've personally tried to distance myself from any solution that requires spending hours acting as tech support even if that solution has the lowest upfront cost.

Thanks! A little over 1TB for for $77

Just gonna get a nice flash drive raid setup going

With this many run-of-the-mill USB 2.0 Cruzers? Copying things very slowly to 20 drives

480 megabits/s
60 megabytes/s

Real world sustained max:
30 to 40 megabytes/s (conservative)

This drive writes at 10mb/s and reads at maybe 20mb/s max.

Sounds terrible? It depends.

This was perfect for our office file transfers and moving and playing 480p/720p/1080p corporate videos (a little slow but timely enough for us). We sometimes need to deploy relatively few gigs widely, and this requires minimum tech savvy.

It's not just personal consumers reading this thread, gentlemen.

God bless.

Yeah that's what I meant about "run-of-the-mill Cruzer"--those things are slow. Not much different than an old-skool Datatraveler from Kingston. I have old 4-8GB drives that were more performance oriented that are faster than these LOL. But they're also only a fraction of this capacity so if one were to want to fill them with data, it would be a lot faster by not only faster write rates but also by virtue of not being...64GB lol.

Surely the same could happen with USB 3.0 drives that aren't even above 2.0 speeds. However thing is most USB 3.x drives today even if they aren't fast drives, they do try to make them at least somewhat decent performance. It's a little bit different than like 10 years ago when they were making the cheap "3.0" flash drives which weren't even as fast as USB 2.0...

Anyway sure use them if they work for you but sale price (or error?) is over now anyway.

Like the Emtec USB 3.1/2 64GB drives Walmart sells. Those are the same transfer speeds. For $9, it's not worth it. Ditto with the Kingston variety. 64 GB purporting to be USB 3.1 with transfer speeds less than USB 2.0!
