Of what? Shoving them up your ass? Is that how you break them in less than 2 month?

I picked up a 2 pack of these PNY's for I wanna say $14 at Walmart yesterday. If you want something with better build quality that'll last you for like 5 years though, I'd pick a more reliable brand. I just needed two drives in a pinch so this worked.

Does anyone buy used flash drives from eBay?

>>55400222
I dont fucking know using them like regular fucking flash drives.

Some sandisk flash drives plug in an additional virtual cd drive that has some shitty companion software on it. The only way to remove that is by modifying the firmware.

I bought a 256 GB Lexar flashdrive and it died in a month

These verbatim ones are the best form factor by far. But I don't think they make them any more, not sure why other companies haven't jumped on similar designs.

I settled and bought bunch of these mixza ones because the brand is decent.

I have one of these and it's lasted around 2 years so far

Damn. $5.80 for 32 GB. Sounds like an amazing deal. I might pull the trigger. What's the catch?
>>
>>55401993
USB 2.0 speeds
>>
>>55401993
Its chinkshit and might be an 8gb drive with the firmware modified to report 32g. At the very least they are low binned chips that major manufacturers consider too poor in quality to use.
>>
>>55402007
What types of users does that matter to? Like for which applications does USB 3.0 really matter? I don't want to pay up for USB 3.0 unless I really need it.
>>
>>55402028
There's literally nothing wrong with chinkshit and mixza is legit
>>
>>55402032

If you aren't really sure that it matters. I can guarantee that it won't affect you.

Mixza are legit, and so is gearbest. They're a wholesaler, not individual sellers.

Ok, I'm about to buy the Mixza 32 GB USB 2.0 flash drive from Gearbeast unless I find a better one on amazon...I hate how amazon has a $49 free ship minimum now, forcing me to buy more stuff from them

ADATA is pretty good.
