16 GB USB 3.0 flash drive for everyday files

This SanDisk Ultra drive stores 16 GB of photos, documents or media and connects through a USB 3.0 port. It is suited to students, office workers or anyone who moves modest amounts of data between computers. The drive requires a USB 3.0 port to reach its rated speed.

Sustained transfer up to 80 MB/s

Sequential read performance reaches up to 80 MB/s under typical host conditions, so large folders copy in a steady stream rather than a short burst. Write speeds are lower and will vary with the host controller, file mix and thermal limits. Performance may be lower depending upon host device.

Plastic capless body with 128-bit AES encryption

The compact capless housing slides into tight ports without blocking adjacent sockets and has no separate lid to lose. Included SecureAccess software adds 128-bit AES password protection for private files while leaving the remaining space open for sharing. Software supports Windows XP through Windows 8 and Mac OS X 10.5+.

Questions about this item

Does the SanDisk Ultra 16 GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive get hot or draw much power when transferring large files all day?

The drive runs from the USB port with no external power. Under sustained writes it will warm slightly, but the compact design has no moving parts and stays within normal USB power limits.

What port and operating system do I already need to reach the 80 MB/s read speed?

A USB 3.0 port is required. The drive works with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and Mac OS X 10.5 or later; Mac users must download the SecureAccess software from the SanDisk site.

Will this 16 GB drive work reliably alongside my older USB 2.0 hubs and ports?

Yes, it is backward compatible with USB 2.0. Speeds will drop to USB 2.0 rates on those ports, but the drive functions normally and keeps the same 128-bit AES encryption via SecureAccess.
