## Description

An desertcart Brand

Review: Solid basic flash drive - Bought this as a filler item to get free shipping, and it works fine. It’s a standard, reliable flash drive with plenty of storage for the price. Speeds are decent for daily tasks. It’s perfect for keeping as a backup, whether for media or as a Windows boot drive. Cheap and does exactly what it's supposed to.
Review: Excellent Quality and Impressive Speed - I purchased the desertcart Basics 256 GB Ultra Fast USB 3.1 Flash Drive, and it completely exceeded my expectations. From the very first use, I noticed the incredible transfer speed—it easily handles large files and high-resolution videos without slowing down or overheating. I transferred over 50 GB in just a few minutes! The design is compact, sturdy, and sleek, making it perfect to carry on a keychain or in a bag. Plus, the price is very reasonable for the amount of storage and performance it offers. It worked immediately with my laptop and TV—no formatting or setup required. Overall, this is a reliable, fast, and high-capacity flash drive that’s perfect for work, school, or personal backups. I’d definitely buy it again and highly recommend it!

A: Fast. Fast. Fast. Looking forward to the 512 and 1 TB versions to become so affordable.

**Q: is this a good option for storing and playing Steam games?**
A: Yeah, I've saved games on it and I haven't had any load time issues, stuttering, maybe some latency, but it's much less than what I'm experiencing with my HDD, just make sure it doesn't disconnect while you're playing 🙃

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product
*by S***I on July 19, 2025*

I picked up the Amazon Basics 128 GB Ultra Fast USB 3.1 drive because I needed something reliable for backing up photos and transferring larger files between my home and work computers. The price seemed reasonable, and I’ve had decent luck with Amazon Basics in the past, so I figured it was worth a try. After a few weeks of use, I don’t really have any complaints. The drive is small enough to toss in a bag or pocket, but not so tiny that it feels like I’ll lose it instantly. It recognized quickly on both my Windows desktop and my older linux system, and transferring files is fast; definitely noticeably faster than the older USB 2.0 drives I’ve used. I’ve been able to move big video files and large batches of photos without much waiting around. No problems with corrupted files so far. The casing is plastic, but it feels sturdy enough for normal daily use. I’m not rough with my stuff, so that’s fine by me. There’s no fancy branding or gimmicks;just a simple, functional flash drive that does what I need it to do. If you’re looking for something basic that gets the job done without costing too much, I think this is a solid choice.
