What This Drive Is
The SanDisk Ultra USB 3.0 Flash Drive provides 16 GB of portable storage in a compact form factor. It connects via a USB 3.0 interface and delivers read speeds up to 80 MB/s when used with a compatible host. The drive is designed for everyday file transport and quick data access.
Who Should Buy It
This drive suits users who need to move documents, photos or videos between computers with a USB 3.0 port and want faster transfers than USB 2.0 allows. Buyers who require capacities larger than 64 GB or who only have USB 2.0 ports available will not get the advertised speed benefit and should consider other options.
The Deciding Specification
The critical figure is the maximum read speed of 80 MB/s over USB 3.0, which determines whether the drive meets your workflow timing. If your devices only support USB 2.0, actual throughput will be significantly lower than the rated peak.

Questions about this item
What read speed does the USB 3.0 interface deliver on this 16GB drive?
The SanDisk Ultra 16GB flash drive reaches up to 80MB/s read speed when connected to a USB 3.0 port, moving files up to four times faster than USB 2.0 drives.
What physical design allows this drive to fit alongside other ports?
The compact, stylish package sits flush in a USB 3.0 port without blocking adjacent sockets, making it easy to leave plugged into a laptop or desktop.
How do I set up the drive so it actually runs at USB 3.0 speeds?
Plug the drive directly into a USB 3.0 port on the host computer; using a USB 2.0 port or an older hub will limit transfer rates to the slower standard.
