The SanDisk® Cruzer® USB Flash drive provides fast and reliable storage, now with Amazon's Frustration-Free Packaging.

Convenient Storage and Portability
With USB ports on computers, to new ports popping up on cars, DVD players, TVs, photo frames, and more, the need for a fast and reliable way to share your digital content on a moment's notice is greater than ever.

The SanDisk® Cruzer® USB Flash drive meets that need. This reliable flash drive fits in the palm of your hand and gives you the storage capacity you need to store and transfer up to 16 GB of data.

While the drive is optimized for laptops and devices with USB 2.0 port, it is backwards compatible with older devices that have USB 1.1 ports, so you can be assured of near universal compatibility.

View Videos Without Extra Software or Setup
With the SanDisk Cruzer USB Flash drive, you can transfer your favorite video from one device to another easily and conveniently, without any additional software or setup. The drive offers drag-and-drop convenience, which means you can simply drag the files from your device onto your SanDisk Cruzer Flash drive, or vice versa, without any steps.

Transferring video files from computer to computer, or from your drive to a USB-enabled DVD player, is incredibly simple. Drag your video files from your PC to your USB flash drive and then plug the drive into your DVD player -- or even your USB-enabled TV -- and sit back to enjoy the show.

Smart, Stylish Design for Ease of Use
With a capless design that exposes the USB connector via a convenient slider, the SanDisk Cruzer USB Flash drive looks just as great as it performs.

When you plug the SanDisk Cruzer USB Flash drive into your USB-enabled device, a glowing, amber-colored LED alerts you that the drives are ready for reading or writing data. This LED rapidly pulses when data is being transferred, and it slows down when the drives are idle, giving you a clear indication of the disk's activity.

The SanDisk Cruzer USB Flash drive is compatible as a flash storage device with Windows® XP, Windows® Vista®, Mac OS 10+ and Linux machines.

The drive is backed by a limited two-year warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Slowest flash drive on the planet., April 11, 2010

This review is from: SanDisk Cruzer 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive SDCZ36-016G-A14F (Personal Computers)

Slowest flash drive on the planet.

Absolutely the slowest flash drive I have ever used, with no exception, and I have had many such drives.

This is the slowest of all of them. Does not smoke or catch on fire spontaneously, though, so it does have one positive attribute.

Buy a different drive. Check the read and write speed before paying for it.

Great product - bullet proof! I've had a 2gb Sandisk flash drive and needed a bigger one to move some 24,000 photos from my girlfriend's MAC to her new PC. I love the slideout design so you never have to worry about losing the cap.

I am satisfied with my purchase and would purchase again. My only disappointment is that there was not any literature/instruction included in the package. Although the device is apparently simple to use, without instructions I am not sure that I am taking advantage of all of the device's capabilities.
