Pros

Micro center pro 32gb usb 3. Is a great value for sheer space. I use them to install windows for my pc's or for just general storage, highly recommend. The guarantee from microcenter is the best.

Maximum sequential write speeds are around usb 2. It writes easily twice as fast once formatted to ntfs, with peaks three times as fast. I have several files that need to be moved to different locations regularly, and we do not want them on the intern... Read More

Got a 2 pack of usb 3. Flash drives and an enclosure. Gen 1 is the same as usb 1, 2 and 3.

Cons

Product is pretty much unusable. What a waste of money.

It writes easily twice as fast once formatted to ntfs with peaks three times as fast

Just not as fast as youd expect

Competitiveness

Ive purchased 6 of these so far and you cant beat the price for 250g

You wont find a less expensive usb in this price range unless you buy generic offbrand junk

For around 40 you could easily put together a 128gb m
