I've been impressed with the size and speed of the drive so far, and it works great as a keychain, but the drive itself gets VERY hot and is difficult to touch, especially closer to the port. I would recommend gripping the back of the drive near the plastic loop when removing the drive from your computer. Just thought I would warn everyone since I could see getting burned.

Overall this is a great flash drive, it gets around 140MBs read and 40MBs write (Slightly slower than the 64GB version). It's not quite as fast as the SanDisk extreme version but it's the fastest metal drive I've found, you can see a benchmark in the attached image.

The metal design seems sturdy and should hopefully hold up to being thrown around with my keys. My only complaint would be that the drive is part metal (silver portion) and the key ring part is plastic (black/grey portion in picture). I was hoping it would be all metal but the plastic key ring seems sturdy and it should hold up over time. One other note is that the drive can get very warm when doing large transfers, it's to be expected for a small metal drive like this but it's worth mentioning.

The SanDisk Ultra Flair 3.0 USB flash drive is strikingly small and light. In fact, when it arrived in a shipping envelope, I though that the envelope was empty. Inside was the drive however, sealed inside of it's blister-pack card.

It also looks good. Most of it's exterior is metal, like a brushed steel. It has a hard plastic "heel" (smoky grey color) which serves as the loop to attache to your key-chain. Given it's size and weight, it is the perfect key-chain USB drive since it will be very unobtrusive, in fact you will probably forget it's there.

As expected, it is fast. My read times benchmark at about 145 MB/s and write times at about 60 MB/s.

I have a 64GB SanDisk Extreme and while it is really, really fast, I get nervous because it sticks out so far and is made of plastic. I was looking for a higher capactity flash drive and this had the combination of size, speed and capacity. As usually Amazon delivered it promptly and the first thing I noticed was it was tiny, both thin and not very long. Amazed that 128GB can be packed into it.

CrystalDiskMark 5.0.3 gave me 144MB/sec reads and 65MB/sec writes for the Seq Q32T1 test and 153MB/sec reads and 102MB/sec writes for the Seq tests.

While Apple charges its customers about $300 to upgrade from a 16GB iPad to a 128GB iPad, this cute little 128GB flash drive is under $40 (no you can't plug one into an iPad) Great value and a great little flash drive.

I love this little thing its lightning fast. I downloaded 32 gigs in a little under 17 minutes I was amazed my other USB estimated 2+hours; this is my new favorite USB!! Storage capacity, speed VS price = win. I was also surprised to see how small this USB was compared to my other 32's. This one is at least half the size.

very disappointed - a trusted name and very fast but a very poor design - the USB flash drive gets extremely hot under normal use - I can't explain it since this never happened before especially with SanDisk flash drives - I would not recommend it and very likely will return the items (I bought 2 of them)

Hi jackbnimble,

My name is Allen from SanDisk support. I am sorry to hear that the drive is not performing as expected. Regarding your comments referring to the operating temperature of the Ultra Flair SanDisk drives comply with industry specific standards and are tested to remain in acceptable temperature ranges under normal operating conditions in host and USB flash drive devices.

SanDisk drives are tested to comply to the safety standards in "Safety of Information Technology Equipment, IEC 60950-1", where the ambient temperature range is between 0°C and 35°C. The Ultra Flair can run a little warmer than other similar drives due to its high performance and compact form factor, which can limit the immediate dissipation of heat from the circuitry.

As you may be aware, the latest laptops and desktops also generate considerable amount of heat which can contribute to running warm while inserted in these hosts. Nevertheless the drive is tested to remain in acceptable temperature ranges under normal operating conditions so to not affect your host device. Please wait for 15-20 seconds after operation to remove/eject the drive before interacting with it.

However in case the drive is heating up exceptionally, please contact us at 1-866-SANDISK(726-3475) or submit a support request at www.sandisk.com/ask. We will assist you towards the best possible resolution.

Thank you,
Allen,
SanDisk support

Update 11/30/2015
Fast on start up but come to a crawl within seconds , so this unit may seem fast if you copy small file but any files above 1GB it slowed down drastically like an old usb2, I copy a media folder from my computer with 20.03gb to this USB drive it and it took 35 minutes and 28 seconds about 10.8MB/second, so I test on a second and third computer the perform about the same, also I copy that same folder from this USB drive back to my computer it took 5 minutes and 21 seconds about 67.1MB/second .

Original Review
One of my least favorite Sandisk product and I own many of them over the years, this flash drive is much smaller than it look and kind of cheap quality , I don't think the plastic part will hold up in your key ring long before it fell apart .
However my biggest complaint it get VERY HOT very fast , so hot it's nearly untouchable after 3 minutes plunged into my USB3 port
wont' recommend

Hello NeonDad,

My name is Allen from SanDisk support. I am sorry to hear that the drive is not performing as expected. As per the performance specification, the Ultra Flair offers a write speed up to 15x faster than standard USB 2.0 drives (4MB/s); and up to 150MB/s read speed. USB 3.0 port required When transferring from computer to the drive, it utilizes Write speed and Read speed when transferring from drive to the computer. The speed of the drive can be affected by multiple factors and we recomend using a industry standard benchmarking application for testing performance.

Regarding your comments referring to the operating temperature of the Ultra Flair; SanDisk drives comply with industry specific standards and are tested to remain in acceptable temperature ranges under normal operating conditions in host and USB flash drive devices.

SanDisk drives are tested to comply to the safety standards in "Safety of Information Technology Equipment, IEC 60950-1", where the ambient temperature range is between 0°C and 35°C. The Ultra Flair can run a little warmer than other similar drives due to its high performance and compact form factor, which can limit the immediate dissipation of heat from the circuitry.

As you may be aware, the latest laptops and desktops also generate considerable amount of heat which can contribute to running warm while inserted in these hosts. Nevertheless the drive is tested to remain in acceptable temperature ranges under normal operating conditions so to not affect your host device. Please wait for 15-20 seconds after operation to remove/eject the drive before interacting with it.

Since you have already returned the product, please provide us an opportunity to help the next time you buy any SanDisk product.

Assuring you of the best services.

Thank you,
Allen,
SanDisk support
