It failed the first time I used it and became write protected through the file transfer.

I used this a Windows 10 UEFI install drive several times, and there has been zero problems with windows every time I installed with it.

I like the rubberized body, and the only real drawback is that the body is thick enough that if you have two USB ports one on top of the other, you'd probably have a hard time plugging in a second device with this because of the thickness

While I didn't lose any data, because I always backup at least 3 times on separate media, I did lose time and convenience

By the way, I experienced a slow write time of 30MB.

Works every time, doesen't overheat, stores what seems like unlimited media

It destroys the load times for my saved games vs. the internal 250 gb hard drive.

The first time I plugged this flash drive into my computer and then tried to remove it , it fell apart

I had run through the was/dryer (probably 20+ times) and abused it a ton over many years of usage.

This drive is both fast and sturdy, I've washed it in my pocket a couple times and it works like new

barely used like 3 times
