Pny M1 Attache 8Gb Usb Flash Drive

I recently had purchased a PNY 64 GIG USB 3.0 flash drive that failed in less than 2 months. Went back to the old reliable SanDisk product line as I have never had a premature failure with any of their products. Also have a SanDisk SSD for my laptop that works very well!!!

Nano USB flash drives can be a real chore to remove, especially from recessed ports -- the smallness that helps keep them from being caught on something can also make them difficult to get a hold of. This PNY flash drive contains a very useful hole perfect for a lanyard, keychain, etc. Performance-wise, the PNY flash drive tested fine on my old hardware's add-on USB 3.0 ports. Machine is running Win 10 and old HD Tach (see photo). Interestingly, HD Tach froze up trying to test another 64GB flash drive, so the PNY is doing something correctly the other did not. Overall, the flash drive seems well-made, with a metal connector, not plastic. No winking LED. The connector cap is snug enough that it should keep from falling off.

This flash drive works smoothly without any issue unlike my other PNY flash drive.

I was hesitant to purchase a large USB Flash Drive but I realized that carrying 5-6 4GB-8GB Flash Drives was kind of silly.

I got this USB-C flash drive for my M1 MacBook Pro, as I was tired of having to use an adapter every time I needed to use my old flash-drives. As my first type-C flash drive, I couldn't be happier. The performance is what you would expect from a Gen 1, USB 3.2 (a little above par compared with USB 3, to be honest), but I wasn't getting this for any super-computing speed tests, so that was fine with me. All I can say is that whoever took the product photos for this little flash drive MUST'VE used a macro lens, because this thing is SUPER tiny! It barely sticks out an inch from the side of my MacBook when it's connected, and that's fine with me - I'm just glad I have a dedicated gadget-bag for my cables and flash drives or else I'd be constantly worried about losing this little thing! Fantastic product, though. Highly recommended!

Love the PNY 8Gb . working great for my desktop. its faster now.

I bought a PNY USB 3.0 128GB drive before. It didn't work on some of my computers. The Sandisk one seems to be of higher quality and faster speed. The overall experience exceeds the expectation.

If you have USB 2 drives on your older computer then stay with PNY 64 GB Flash Drives. They work and are FAT 32 formated. No Problems with these Flash Drives. I tried 128 GB Flash Drives that were suppose to work on USB 2 thru USB 3. My first file copied to them and the memory crashed and burned. I ordered the PNY 64 GB USB 2 and they are excellent. Smaller GB but always work.

I like PNY flash drives because the USB connection port does not try to slide into the storage slot when one plugs it in teh computer port like the sliding storage style drives. Never had a problem with this brand.

I use the PNY 128gb Turbo 3.0 flash drive to back up my extensive photo work and also my video's. Being USB 3 it's much faster and the size (physical size) of the drive is ideal for for storage. Doesn't take up space and easy to bring along if need be to show work on it. A HDD I had for backup failed and I lost tons of images. I still use a HDD but this gives me an extra margin of safety. This makes 3 now for storage. Couldn't be happier or more at ease.
