Flash drives always come in handy whether it’s for keeping a backup of your most important documents or family photos, to holding your favorite media to play on a compatible device. This compactUSB-C flash drive from Samsung is down to $19and offers 256GB of Samsung NAND flash memory that can transfer your data at up to speeds of 400MB/s.
Samsung advertises that this flash drive can transfer 4GB files in around 11 seconds with its 400MB/s USB 3 read speeds, plus it’s compatible with older USB 3.0/2.0 ports making it a truly backward compatible drive. Handy if you want to use it with an adapter for a USB-A to USB-C.
A benefit of having a USB-C flash drive is not only the reversible plug that helps Type-C devices insert into your devices seamlessly every time, but also the types of devices you can connect to. A benefit I’ve found personally with USB-C flash drives is the ability to transfer data easily from my phone - as long as you have a phone with a USB-C port. Much easier than connecting the cables or removing the microSD card.
