Transcend32GB JetFlash 780 USB 3.1 Gen 1, Lightweight and Compact with MLC Flash, Up to 400 MB/s TS32GJF780

This is a good flash drive. A bit old now but mine is still going strong. Other reviews have measured the performance already so nothing I can add here. At the time it had one of the best price (£55) vs performance/capacity (256GB) ratio. Styling is very nice and elegant. There is also a lanyard hole if you want to attach it to a keyring.

I needed a thumb drive primarily to install Windows, and after a good deal of research between Transcend, Kingston, Sandisk, etc., this is the drive I took the risk on.Testing with Crystal Disk Mark at 1GiB:Read / write speeds over USB2.0 are 38 (read) / 30 (write).Read / write speeds over USB3.0. are 158 (Read) / 50 (write).So: not quite the 'up to' 210 (read) and 140 (write) in the promotional material, but then again 'up to' language tends to set my expectations that I probably won't see the advertised numbers -- unfortunately.In terms of real-world use: Windows (8.1) fully installed in under 10 minutes (in conjunction with an 850 EVO SSD), and the drive has been holding any new data I put on it just fine. Other reviewers note that their units died after a few months to a year after purchase, so we'll see if I suffer the same fate. Until then my only real letdown is that this isn't quite as fast as it claims it could be. I should also mention that the construction quality is decent: it doesn't feel cheap, nor does it feel 'premium'.

Ordered it January 2016, yesterday he quit.Bad quality and really annoying. Luckily the last weeks i only used it for my timemachine backup of my macbook.How long is the warranty by Transcend?Update:after some research on the internet i found the JetFlash online recovery tool at their homepage.it worked, the stick works again.

I have used Transcend for many years, but am now questioning their quality.This developed a data fault (now fixed) within 15 months of purchase, and it had only been used very lightly.This is a smart looking USB but unless the data is saved safely, who cares about that?.It is only my past positive experience of Transcend products that leaves this review at 3 stars.

This flash drive does exactly as it says on the tin, and looks quite good too. I checked with ASSD for speed ratings and it was as fast as promised. I have subsequently found it for less money per GB in the 32GB form, but this item will meet my needs perfectly well.

This is by far the best USB drive i have ever brought! the data speeds are so fast, the software works with mac which is great as i have the drive encrypted now, my only regret is that i wish i had brought the 64gb version instead!Would defiantly recommend and i wouldn't hesitate at buying another again!

Fast, worked well for high res video output to Samsung tv. Data transfer speed is good.Case is plastic and lightweight so not as robust as their metal series, but overall very good.

Great product, good build quality and excellent, consistent speed.
