Samsung BAR Plus

This unit operates at a relatively slow speed but is usable and doesn't skimp on numbers. 110MB/sec at best, but it still works. You need to be aware of the heat, though. The circuitry inside generates a lot of heat and after writing to it for more than 30 seconds, it's very hot to the touch. More t...

Bought three of these Samsung BAR plus in 64GB, two for key chain use, one to have handy on my desk. Made sure Amazon was the seller to help avoid any risk of non-genuine Samsung parts. Just arrived and burned each one in briefly using CrystalDiskMark, so I could both be sure each worked and compare...

I bought this to replace the 128GB version I was using with my Firestick. With the old one, it would bounce between a transfer speed of 30-50mbps which wasn't bad and was at least 10 times faster than the old USB 2.0 drive I had been using. With this new drive, I get a constant 107mbps transfer spee...

I have a few capacities of these. i mostly use the smaller ones for backup windows/mac installers and/or boot volumes. Yes they work for that. The smaller capacities are slower, but the 256 that i now have is legitimately useful for wide array of tasks, 400+ read 100+ write. There are faster out the...

Tried to use for mp3 files. Will NOT play the mp3 files in a car. Probably have to convert music files to some other format. Not happy with this flash drive. *UPDATE- found a fix to use MP3’s on this drive. Put flash drive in computer(with no files on drive). Right click on drive-go to format-change...

The properties showed that it has 59GB capacity, which is about right. The files I needed to save were less than that, about 57GB, but after three attempts, gave up on error message because it ran out of space. Still don't know why. Using it for something else, just fine, but was disappointed that t...

Totally happy with this....got it on sale on a prime day sale, for about 20 dollars total. It stood out because it has an extra-sleek, slightly angular design and a great, subtle color and finish. It can be put on a keychain to take a LOT of your current necessity files with you and bring them up on...

This is the 2nd Samsung thumb drive I’ve purchased. First one was less capacity. I also have Samsung 500GB and 1 TB back up drives (5 years and 2 years old respectively) and they have also worked flawlessly. Only potential issue is compatibility with Windows 11. I’m still using 10. The specification...

I used the stick to transfer files between two drives. After plugging it into the USB port of my computer, the drive was recognized immediately. Lightning speed in writing and reading files, no technical problems, impressive capacity. I also like the unusual shape of the drive and its color. Very ha...

Reasonably priced for the capacity, physically compact, has worked without issue, and I don't think the hole in the housing for attaching to a loop or keychain will ever break, which is something that has happened with every plastic flash drive I kept attached to my keychain. Would buy again.
