I needed decent capacity to copy photos/videos for giving to others. Comes preformatted with exFAT. I wanted NTFS so I did FULL reformat. It tool several hours (I knew they would) but only 4 of 5 reformatted with no issues. The 5th one, Windows 11 reports failure in it couldn't complete the format. The 5th has failed 3/3 reformatting attempts. In one of the attempts, tried the default "exFAT" format. It does successfully perform "Quick Reformat" but that only reformats the directory indexes. I have been testing it by copying files to it but I don't trust it at this point to keep anything substantial on it. Also, I have yet to "test" the memory retention of the other 4 drives that successfully reformatted.I did contact the seller and they are giving me a small refund to cover the defective drive instead of me having to send all of them back and trying to get another set.Thus, I give this product 4 stars b/c:a) most of the drives seem to work,b) really good price (if the rest work with no further issues - Stay tuned!)c) seller seems very responsiveHope this helps.UPDATE: 11/20/2022: I copied several large files to the drive that failed and although it appeared to copy over, I computed hash for the files and it failed to match the source. I then copied the file off the drive and the hash was different as well. So it was total failure. The other successfully formatted drives work fine thus far.

These thumb drives are a great value. So helpful!

Used these to give the kids digital copies of vhs tapes we took when they were small. They’re a good value and have more than adequate storage capacity. The hand feel is such that they don’t have a heft to them like some more weighted thumb drives, but they’re durable and adequate for the task of file transfer.

5 srives for the price is excellent value. Be aware these are USB 2.0 (not 3.0) so not the fastest drives.
