Run Linux Mint From A Usb Flash Drive

For the money, this flash drive performs well. On my Linux Mint 19.1 system read speed was about 110 MB/s with write speed around 13 MB/sec. Comparable Silicon Power flash drives I have clock-in at reads of 111 MB/s and writes of only 8 MB/s, while a Lexar unit reads at 138 MB/s while writing at 9 MB/s. So overall a good performance and well suited to my sneaker net uses.

Plug and play on Linux Mint 21.1 . Throughput benchmark matched hard drive throughput maximum specifications.

I installed the drive in a old Mac Mini that has Linux Mint install. I did a disk copy to the new drive, replace the old drive. The drive works great and I was surprised at how much faster the drive works. It was a good buy, I recommend it.

I bought this for my linux mint pc. It was as easy to get working as plugging it in.

Works well with Linux Mint Mate 20 and so do all the Logitech combos since they use the same driver.

SN750 or SN850 will do you well. I installed this as the primary OS drive on my laptop. I run Windows and Linux on it no problem. It is quick, and doesn't seem to overheat even in the small space. I like that it comes with TLC memory, so it should last. Comes with a good warranty.

Works like a charm with Linux Mint and Opensuse Tumbleweed. Beautiful condition, looks like it’s brand new.

Update can be done without old CPU with USB flash drive only.

I' use these for Linux distros, for me its better then USB drives...

We are using a flash drive to store and playback videos on a portable projector. I tried with a USB 3.0 Flash Drive, thinking the newer version was better. But the projector had a different idea. I learned from the professionals at B+H that this unit requires an older USB 2.0 Flash Drive. I never would have thought of that but sure enough, when I used this Verbatim 64G Ergo USB 2.0, the projector recognized the videos and played them flawlessly.
