Great price, great product.
Exactly as described.5 in a package. Push the ends together to expose the USB port.I plugged one into my computer and it was up and ready in a FLASH!Seriously quick.Decent price, good size, had bought smaller 5 pack earlier and loved those so I stepped up.One 5 pack for me, one for my wife.She keeps her entire ebook library on 2 or 3 flash drives. Plug it into a computer and she has all her books at her fingertips.For mine, a couple will be run through Rufus to make a bootable Zorin OS disk.

Best Budget Buy for USB 3.0
Pros-Faster speeds than USB 2.0-Good Build Quality-Slide Up CapCons-Not the fastest drive available-USB Plug is Exposed-Slightly larger than most other drives.I was looking for a USB drive to replace the one that I had originally lost and couldn’t find. I just wanted a drive that would be able to work reliably and be able to store most of my common files that I work between PCs. After much consideration, I decided to buy a USB 3.0 instead of a 2.0 since they have dropped price a lot and they are starting to become mainstream in the newest laptops. Seeing as most of my files total around 20GB, I decided to go for a 32GB. This kind of proved tricky because of the large selection on Amazon; from name brands to totally unknown companies. After much thought, I decided to buy this PNY USB 3.0 Turbo. Thoughts? It’s not the fastest drive available, but it works well that it is the best budget USB drive.-Design-The design looks like most of the PNY drives that have recently come out. It’s a device made entirely out of plastic (so don’t expect premium details like aluminum) but for all intents and purposes it is sturdy and feels like it will last. It isn’t one of those flash drives with a cap, but it does have a cover that slides across the drive. The benefit of this is that the port itself will probably remain protected from most physical damages, but the drawback is that the USB connector might collect dust and will probably get damaged if it comes in contact with things like sand and water. But at a budget price, these kind of things are to be expected. The size of the device itself is small and portable, but it should be noted that it is bigger than its 2.0 sibling: the PNY Compact Attaché 2.0. Still, it should fit it most people pockets or PCs without taking up much room.-Performance-This is probably where most consumers will ask the question: is USB 3.0 better than USB 2.0? In one simple answer: Yes! By how much? Well it depends on the drive. The PNY Turbo is a speedy device, but there are faster drives. On a positive note, there are also slower drives out there as well. However, this PNY Turbo completely knocks out the PNY Attaché 2.0 out of the water. In most of the benchmarks on CrystalDiskMark 4.0.3, it beats the old USB 2.0 by a wide margin (typically more than 80 MB/s in read and more than 50 MB/s in write). On the practical side of performance, files loaded much faster on the PNY Turbo; in some cases, almost instantly. This will be noticeable in most, if not all file transfers to and from the drive, especially with programs and huge HD videos. Sure, there are a couple drives that are clearly faster, but for the price, it hits a nice middle ground to work with. One thing to note though, the drive will get warm when it is in use. This is something that I’ve never experienced with the older USB 2.0; but I have heard that it is common with USB 3.0.-Conclusion-Is this the best drive on Amazon? For most people, it is. It is practical and reasonably quick for what you’re paying; especially when compared to the old USB 2.0 standard. If your concern is absolute speed, the SanDisk Ultra Extreme 3.0 or the Lexar JumpDrive P10 will probably fit your needs better. If you want the absolute cheapest drive possible, there are countless drives with the same storage amount but with a lower price tag (including the PNY Compact Attaché 2.0). However, I would strongly encourage you to spend a little extra and get the PNY Turbo 3.0. Why? Because here in 2015 (at the time of this writing) more computers are coming out with at least one USB 3.0. Even the cheapest Chromebook has them as well. Even if you aren’t concerned about speed or transferring large files, it would provide a way of future proofing your devices and allow you to spend more time working rather than waiting for files to transfer and load. For me, it was a good purchase and I hope it last a long time (at least throughout college).

PNY Value Pack is the Better Deal
Great quality, great value. I literally have dozens of these and similar with different capacities by PNY and have never had any fail. Even after a dog chewed one up I was able to recover the data and transfer. A lot of people like to have a large TB drives for backup, but it is also good to have your critical data backed up on something like this to avoid single point of failure on the larger TB drives. And, these smaller thumb drives are more convenient for quick backup and mobility. Going with a name brand like PNY is the better bet for reliability to protect your critical data and the value pack puts these thumb drives at a better price point.

Bought a five pack of these drives and given the price (which worked out to a little over $10AU per 128GB drive) I wasn’t expecting too much. One of the drives did fail as soon as I plugged it in; however, after a quick chat with Amazon support, I received a hassle free partial refund for the failed drive. I tested the other four drives using h2testw (which is a free download and simple tool for testing removable drives) and the results were pretty consistent across all the drives. All had about 114GB of available space, with write speeds around 17MB/s and read speeds around 90MB/s. So if you want super-fast file transfers, you’ll need to spend more for a faster drive. But if you’re on a budget and fine with waiting longer for your files to transfer, they’re worth a try. Regardless of what you buy, it’s always prudent to test drives as soon as you get them.As a side note, h2testw works by writing to the entire drive, then reading the drive for corrupted files, so it can take a couple of hours to fully check a 128GB drive, especially if it has a slow write speed, and you’ll need to delete the test files when the test is completed. Also, if you’re plugging the drive directly into a TV to play large video files and the TV doesn’t recognize the drive correctly, try formatting the drive to NTFS.
