This is a great flash drive. The design allows for pocket carry. The transfer speeds are extremely fast. I purchased 20 total of these drives for restoring baseline images via acronis. The 3.1 speeds are drastically greater than the 3.0. Also, if considering purchasing the 648Gb, the speeds between the two are drastically in favor of the 128Gb version. Invest the few extra dollars in the 128Gb version for the significantly upgraded transfer speeds.

It is one of the fastest flash drives around. Being made of metal, it is among the most durable. Being small, it is easy to carry–but also easy to lose. It does not come with a lanyard, nor does it come with backup software. But if you just want a fast flash drive, it is one of the best.

I use the Samsung 128GB USB 3.1 Gen 1 BAR Plus Flash Drives for backups on my wildlife photo/video trips. I down load each days work to my laptop then copy to these robust flash drives.

Very fast speed

This metalic thumbdrive is just a solid, functional drive. One of the things I like about it is that it’s narrow enough that it doesn’t interfere with other USB devices in my too-close-together USB ports on my laptop.

I purchased this as I wanted as safe a drive as I could get and this is the safest one I have found. Love the curved end. Easy to hold and know which side to plug in.

Looks Great, Very sturdy, Fast 200MB Read Speed, Poor 25MB Write speed

Easy form and fit and massive amount of storage with good read / write speeds.

Indestructible!…..well …within reason. All solid strong metal, no flex and far smaller than I thought it would be, key chain hole makes great grip & you’ll never have to guess which side goes up when inserting. I had & was thinking of getting the type which are nearly flush to USB port but kept losing it as it was so tiny.

It’s very sleek and very fast to copy. I like both the design and performance.

Big disappointment. The read speed is OK, but the write speed is unbelievably poor. I get 260 MB/sec read speed. Writing is less than 60 MB/sec. Snoooooooooooze. Don’t buy this product. The advertising “Up to 300MB/s Data Transfer Speed” is grossly misleading.

I upgraded from a 2.0 to this 3.1 drive. I love the look and heft of the metal body, but it is a very snug fit into the computer. You have to be very careful when inserting. If you are plugging in and leaving it there, no problem. If you will be taking in and out daily, it might be over time.

no serial number so impossible to register. upfront the usb works as advertised but is the first product i have not been able to register. bought two of these and tey appear to be very high quality units. first use worked fine.

The ergonomic shape and good speed make this a great buy. I use it for storing astrograph images taken with one shot color cameras during a session, then transferring such to a disc drive.

I own a high-end video digitizing company and like to use flash drives and SSDs that reflect the quality of the work I do. For my professional clients who generally need ProRes files (large files!) I use the Samsung T7 SSDs, and for consumer work (H.264 codec) I use the Samsung Bar Plus flash drives. I’ve gone though hundreds of these and never had a failure. They look good, they work perfectly, and while I could easily get away with cheaper generic no-brand drives (and boost my profit margins, like most companies do), I prefer to spend that little bit extra and keep it classy. Plastic flash drives look so tacky after using these sleek metal drives! Worth the little extra money.
