    Do these get hot?

      No, only those with tiny metal casing one do

      • rokufan on 14/01/2020 - 17:33

        Yeah, plenty of plastic on these so your fingers don't touch the metal.

    • eggboi on 14/01/2020 - 19:56

      Yes, they do get hot, but it’s a little deceptive… the plastic casing is actually just to make it look like a regular usb thumb drive. The memory chip itself seems to be within the actual USB-A port! So the USB port on the drive does get very hot (at least 60-70 degrees) but the plastic shell does not. I guess it’s economical for them to make the drives in this way because they could use the same tooling for those other thumb drives they make that only stick out about 5mm from the usb port. Also, i would assume they just use the memory chips from their microSD cards in all of these usb drives. Ijust received some of these drives today and they are pretty good for the price. Sequential write is around 40-45mb/s for the first gb or so, then drops to 26-27mb/s. Sequential read sits around 150mb/sec. But yes, the usb connector part does get very hot during use.

    Officeworks also has the same stick at the same price- $12. https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/sandisk-64…

        Nope, it was def these same drives. Received mine today. Tested and seems to be no issues. See my comment above for more info.

        • maxplanck on 14/01/2020 - 20:51

          Yep got mine today too, three of the same drives for $19.89. Did a full format on each and the usb A ports were pretty hot. In hindsight I should have made better use of an under-utilised bargain to validate the reported 60-70C. If i had my time again, I'd read this thread before taking the Sandisk Ultra plunge. Buying one for $12 instead of three for $20 could in fact be a deal. YMMV (especially if youve got three of them).

  • [Deactivated] on 14/01/2020 - 19:32

    This isnt extreme

  • [Deactivated] on 14/01/2020 - 19:53

    Good for rom storage on connected to shield?

  • mortyestmorty on 14/01/2020 - 19:58

    I ultimately decided against buy one because of the speeds it claims vs. the speeds it actually offers. Here is just one example of a review:

    • eggboi on 14/01/2020 - 20:02

      Good to be wary, but that’s an older model. I just received 3 of these current sandisk 64gb ultras and the write speed is 26-40mb/s depending what you’re copying, while the read speed is around 150mb/sec.

  • [Deactivated] on 14/01/2020 - 20:04

    Useless drives that overheat and write speeds crawl to a stop. Got 3 of them in various sizes up to 128gb. Don't know what to do with them

    • eggboi on 14/01/2020 - 20:09

      The older ones and 32gb or smaller versions are all apparently rubbish. The 64gb aren’t half bad though. Good for keeping a bootable copy of windows or using as a drive you can lend to friends and not worry too much about never getting it back, but is also faster than 3mb/s lol

      • ripoffmerchant on 14/01/2020 - 20:38
        +1

        Any drive that I lend to a friend is considered a write off anyway. Thank god they aren’t expensive these days.

      • RC13 on 15/01/2020 - 09:54

        Isn't anything bigger than 16GB for a bootable drive just a waste of space?

    • solidice on 14/01/2020 - 20:35

      Happy to give you some basic computer support to show you how to use the drives effectively?

    • mr_fjackson on 14/01/2020 - 20:53

      If the first 2 where rubbish why did you buy a third ?

      • Charity on 15/01/2020 - 01:03

        There have been many 3 for $X deals of these in the past. Honestly, they are rubbish. Hottest I've ever seen + mine had corruption issues multiple times. Only usb drive that I've ever put in the bin. Usually they get hoarded in a drawer. lol. Fortunately they only suckered me for one.

    The CZ48 Ultra 64GB from ShoppingSquare (has very long serial number):

    Sequence Read/Write: 134/26MB/s

    https://ibb.co/album/jgxZyv

    The CZ48 Ultra 64GB from FTT (has short serial number):

    Sequence Read/Write: 144/24.6MB/s

    https://ibb.co/album/cFngva

    Do not buy the CZ48 32GB, seems to have design problem, will be read only right away after a benchmark

    • jwh on 15/01/2020 - 12:16

      Where are you getting the short and long serial numbers?

      I've got a CZ48 Ultra 64GB from FTT, averaged approx 30MB/s sustained write while writing just short of full. Didn't get hot while doing it either.

  • NVidia Sucks on 14/01/2020 - 20:43

    These were 3 for $19 on ebay not long ago.

    • redpen on 14/01/2020 - 22:30

      Certainly were. Good deal.

    I got 3 of these from ebay for free a couple of weeks ago, just arrived tonight!

  • spinferno on 15/01/2020 - 09:15

    very tempted, but the independent speed tests on this specific model of the Ultra are scathing about how slow it is:

    • aboutconfig on 15/01/2020 - 13:56

      userbenchmark is a scam, never has been accurate, also the link you gave is 16GB

    Just got one. Heres' my speed test right out of the box

  • mutantx on 15/01/2020 - 17:07

    picked up one from OW for $12 … not showing markdown on instore pricetag, but it scanned correctly at checkout. thanks OP

  • nowlan on 15/01/2020 - 21:16

    Are these the exreme ones that run really fast?

    • aboutconfig on 15/01/2020 - 23:11

      Those are Ultra, which means ultra slow .

      The extreme ones have extreme in the product name.
