These Cruzer Blades are fantastic. Very fast, reliable and a great value. I use them so often. They can store pictures, music and files so easily and quickly. At present my favorite way to use them is to store music and take it where ever I go. I love my music and being able to have it at any computer i am at is just awesome. So many picture albums have been sent to friends and family on them. Not to mention the files you can store on them and take with you so easily. No bulky briefcase, just put in your pocket and go, what could be easier???

You risk your data using cheap memory cards or sticks. These are reliable. 8GB is a good size for saving a batch of documents, photos, etc. Also for "burning" an ISO file for operating system (Windows 10, Linuxes) installations or live disk (no installation) testing of new versions.

Sandisk has been making memory or a long time. One thing it is known for is the encryption password protection program that comes preloaded. I don't need it, so I reformat the drive for running boot programs and saving program installs that help me to recover my favorite Apps for my desktop. These can also be used for Boost drives for windows OS.

I bought this item to have several flash drives to send to relatives with pictures of the family reunions. Since most have USB 2.0 capability the faster 3.0 wasn't needed. 8 GB holds the pictures from many reunions, family historys, weddings, birthday parties, funerals, etc. And the price was right.

These 8G USB flash drives are a great value for creating bootable Windows installation media for installing Windows 7, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10. They are probably also adequate for creating installation media for Apple Mavericks or Yosemite as well. They are a perfect size for creating Emergency Recovery media from these versions of Windows using the built-in Windows Backup/Recovery program.

After trying a few of the cheap Chinese-branded USB sticks, I finally bought these. Not only does the data write faster to this (even the cheap ones that claim to be USB 3.0), it is completely reliable. You can later add more files without worry (the cheap ones get stuck trying to write files to them, even with plenty of memory available). Another big reason to avoid those cheap ones, is that sooooo many of them are flashed with bigger memory than they actually hold (search for fake memory on YouTube if you don't know how this works). So, in short, DON'T EVER BUY cheap memory sticks or SD cards. Stick to reliable brands like this one and save yourself the frustration!

I keep records on many different categories of information. These are easy to use, store, retrieve info from and the price made is very attractive to get this many. I probably will get more so I can make more room in my PC.

I have always had good performance from SanDisk memory products. No difference with the Cruzer Blades. If you get refurbished, overstock, surplus or clearance versions.....you MAY get some that are flagged as "HARD DISKS". AT one time SanDisk distributed these with that "bit" set in its firmware. Your computer will see these "flagged" drives as "HARD DISKS" attached to your system. They will not be treated as "removable" drives. There are situations (like putting a boot system on the drive) when that is desirable. You cannot change the status of this "bit" so it will stay that way forever. This is not a problem for most uses of the drive but anyone using them should be aware of the situation. Last order of 10 drives... I got one that was flagged as a hard drive.

No connector protection, but it's easier that way for me because I use them so often. They're easier to insert that way. 8 GB is more than enough for my purposes, so I save $$ by using a smaller flash drive. I've used them with very frequent changes for over 2 years and they keep on working. Love 'em. SanDisk has never presented any problems for me. Not so with others I've tried. Five stars.

Its a USB drive everything you can possibly expect from it! The only difference is the way they packaged the product! This company is good better than Amazon and New-egg! I can tell they care about their customers!!!
