ADATA UV128 USB Flash Drive - 128GB - Black / Blue

Holds around 35,550 pictures of John Campbell, which allows me to select the best ones for the impromptu shrine I have set up in my basement (it's not weird I promise).

I bought 02 ADATA 32GB from PB Tech. Have been a long standing customer of PB which I rate as a A+. However this product was a dissaster for me. I am in IT support and struggled for several hours and many days to establish a bootable OS from USB. Reported various errors and took a long time verytime. Tried on the 2nd unit thinking is a hardware fault on the first. Same outcome. Bought a SanDisk from The Warehouse, worked like a charm first time. Reported to PB but the procedure to return product (How can one find a fault with the original packagig in tact!) is not worth the effort. Disappointed with this brand. For PB please be selective...view more I bought 02 ADATA 32GB from PB Tech. Have been a long standing customer of PB which I rate as a A+. However this product was a dissaster for me.

The old batch I got was great as the write speed was about 32MB/s but at some point they changed the internal components now the write speed is about 10MB/s.

Firmware failed rendering device unusable after a single use.

A google shows that this is/was common with ADATA devices and there used to be an ADATA tool to fix the firmware, but it no longer exists. Firmware failed rendering device unusable after a single use.

Bought 5 of these on sale and 2 have already failed in less than 3 weeks using them. One of them was faulty immediately out of the pack, and the other failed after 2-3 weeks use. I cannot recommend these. Completely unreliable.

Still have 3 left. We'll see how they go. Bought 5 of these on sale and 2 have already failed in less than 3 weeks using them. One of them was faulty immediately out of the pack, and the other failed after 2-3 weeks use. I cannot recommend these. Completely unreliable.

Great flash drive. Fast enough read and write speeds. Great price for the Size. Can't go wrong. Great flash drive. Fast enough read and write speeds. Great price for the Size. Can't go wrong.

Have a bunch of OS iso's on it and it works great Have a bunch of OS iso's on it and it works great

great value for money, nice size space can hold a lot of stuff, pretty quick also at transferring large files great value for money, nice size space can hold a lot of stuff, pretty quick also at transferring large files

Not tried it yet but looks good for price Not tried it yet but looks good for price

Good for storing lots of small files. Not great for large files as write speed drops off rapidly. Works great for me as a OS installation media disk Good for storing lots of small files. Not great for large files as write speed drops off rapidly. Works great for me as a OS installation media disk

I've used several of these. I've found them reliable. Performance is fine, if not the fastest available for USB 3.2. 64GB is a good storage size for most short-term purposes, unless you are moving high volume data. These are normally well priced compared to most competitors, especially when on special. I've used several of these. I've found them reliable.
