None - we ordered three of these and the very first one out of the box failed...no directions came with the stick...did auto set up online..it took two.five hours to sit and spin saying "please wait whilst processing" and then a fatal error message popped up. Referred to as for tech help..got a nice lady in UK who sent me an e-mail request for a screen capture, op program, & brower used. I answered suitable away and have however to get a response from YuuWaa. Guess we will be returning all three and buying one thing else. Offered these were each and had good ratings we are incredibly dissappointed. |

High CapacityHardware EncryptionSimple to use backup sofware Produced of extremely cheap plasticFeels like it could break extremely effortlessly. Formatted capacity is 59.6GBI only wish they would have used a much better type of plastic for this USB drive.In the end it's a higher capacity usb stick with hardware encryption. 4Ǜ eggs simply because of how flimsy it feels. |

Purchased this for my wife to effortlessly back-up her lap leading, promised simplicity a large plus.Storage capacity is as advertised Press the device button for back-up did not work. No instructions apart from press the button so ignored the icon on the desk top rated for a although. Then, soon after tiring of pressing the button, opened the icon and launched the back-up system for "Documents" which worked.Attempted to back-up other files only to find that the back-up plan had disappeared. Tried to download, no web-site connection for program down loads.Accessed the Scandisk help web site and found faq for download system: answer "The answer to this question is no longer accessible". Scandisk definitely in a considerable state of muddle.The product is not what I anticipated. RMA Had believed that the back-up plan would be in a position to make a disk image to enable complete hard drive restoration. From my short encounter with the back-up plan, I now doubt that it (if it ever resurfaces) has that capability. If this is the case then, as a single reviewer has opined, the system is of really limited utility. |

Very stable and reliable. I am employing this device to back up information in Windows XP and Vista and it gets the job carried out flawlessly. The U3 software program that comes with the drive is incredibly simple to use, and is capable of incremental and reside back up. It also has AES encryption for safely locking up the data. Physically it has a smooth glossy finish and the retractable connection is good. My only be concerned is the little piece of plastic for the essential ring that I am afraid is going to break any time soon. It is rather slow. Nevertheless, if you do incremental backups (backing up only the adjustments to the database) rather than full back up each time, then this must not be a issue. At very first it took practically two hours to back up 20GB of information from a VelociRaptor, but now the incremental backups (about 100MB) take much less than 3 minutes. I wish SanDisk would use a sturdy metal piece as an alternative of a flimsy plastic piece for essential ring attachment. The device desires to be ejected via its software package, otherwise you stand the likelihood of corrupting your data. You just can't pull it out of the USB port after accomplished. It has an LED light that blinks in the course of information transfer and is steady in idle. |

Fairly rapid read/write speeds. Decent expense, lightweight, and not too significant in size. At times it takes an additional second to start writing to the drive. Not a large issue just signifies you have to be careful and safely get rid of it |

So far so good. I didn't want or care about the "backup" software program so I formatted it out of the box. I don't know what that other reviewer was talking about; it formatted perfectly with NTFS in one partition. As stated formatted capacity is 59.6GB (don't blame Sandisk, this is a result of block size and stuff tied back to formatting challenging drives). I put 45 Gig worth of MP3 files on it and use it everyday. I'm digging it... NOT an issue with this drive, nonetheless know that these items can die whenever they want. I had an 8G from Sandisk that just gave up 1 day out of the blue. I backup my information (you do too, appropriate?) so it wasn't a major deal. I also have another 8G Sandisk thats been through the washer and dryer and it functions perfectly. Now I want a 128G drive... |

The origional drive was great (purchased 12 mo ago) The new drive purchased a week ago (same SanDisk part number) is not the same drive. Original drive worked with U3, newer drive does not. I talked to SanDisk Tech Assistance and was given the "That's to Poor" song with out any solution. BUYER BEWARE, SanDisk alterations the functionality of there merchandise with no altering portion numbers or descriptions. I definately will be looking at other producers Just before I invest in one more SanDisk item. |

Incomprehensibly enormous storage. Much quicker writes than my Corsair. Love the plastic case, light as air, tough as nails. People that complain about the case getting fragile are confusing its lack of mass for weak structural integrity, which most absolutely is not the case. Comes with two partitions, 63.9 GB one that is yours to play with, and one that mounts as a separate CD drive that is 8MBs of their backup software (yes, you get two devices mounted when you plug it in). Sandisk, please permit me to delete your garbage? Can't format to NTFS simply because it only recognizes 4GBs on the drive. Comes formatted FAT32 in some weird way that it can basically recognize the full 64GBs. Don't recommend trying to format it. Perpetually blinking LED is difficult to interpret when active; prefer LED blinking for activity, LED solid for no activity. Don't invest in the stock industry, it's a huge pyramid scheme developed to take your income |

It just came in. I rated it a 3 for all categories since I just got it. Check back for more details. Initial reaction: -Connector is retractable -Has a lanyard connection -Busy light is on retractable thumb slide on top of drive. -Light weight -Attractive design -1 "disk", 59.6GB, FAT32 -U3 enabled -Came with no instructions. SanDisk warranty and Guide are at: sandisk.com/wug -The SanDisk packaging has a 5 year limited warranty stamp. -The backup button and accompanied U3 software work pretty well and are easy to use. -The write speed seems pretty normal although I havent put it through any official tests yet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update: I have had the drive for a month now and its still going strong. I move a lot of data to and from this device and it seems pretty slow even when running an M$ Office file from it. I have not run any official speed tests. I really like the drive becaus |
Quick. 64GB capacity. - Cost.- Pre-installed back-up application is a joke... take away it.
