Model : SanDisk Ultra Luxe USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive. 64GB Speeds upto 150 MB/s READ (SDCZ74-064G-I35) Test System : USB 3.2 Gen 1 (rear port), SATA SSD. First of all the drive did get warm but it never got as hot as some reviewers claim. Even when copying 6.31GB (3095 folders). JFYI : The USB-IF (USB Implementers Forum) rebranded USB 3.0 as USB 3.2 Gen 1. BTW : there is a newer model SDCZ74-064G-G46 with 300 MB/s READ. The USB flash drive had a unusual MBR (USB-HDD+). Windows reported the capacity as 57.2GB. CRYSTALDISKMARK : synthetic benchmark which has no relation to real-life usage. FAT32 : Seq read speeds were roughly the same, more than 160 MB/s, for 256, 512 & 1024 MiB. FAT32 : Seq write speeds were more than 65 MB/s for 256 & 512 MiB and 38 MB/s for 1024 MiB. NTFS : Seq read speeds were roughly the same, more than 155 MB/s, for 256, 512 & 1024 MiB. NTFS : Seq write speeds were more than 65 MB/s for 256 & 512 MiB and 25 MB/s for 1024 MiB. Screenshots for all 6 CrystalDiskMark tests attached. REAL LIFE WRITE SPEEDS : I wanted to know what I could expect on my PC. FAT32 : 434 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 144 secs (15.6 MB/s) NTFS : 434 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 71 secs (31.6 MB/s) FAT32 : 95 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 11 secs (41.0 MB/s) NTFS : 95 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 9 secs (54.0 MB/s) FAT32 : 960 various files, average file size 4.5 MB took 241 secs (17.7 MB/s) MTFS : 960 various files, average file size 4.5 MB took 187 secs (22.8 MB/s) (these were Windows installer files, one file was 3716 MB) FAT32 : 1 file, size 65 MB took 1.4 secs (46 MB/s) NTFS : 1 file, size 65 MB took 1.1 secs (59 MB/s) FAT32 : 1 file, size 485 MB took 8.8 secs (55 MB/s) NTFS : 1 file, size 485 MB took 8.3 secs (57 MB/s) REAL LIFE READ SPEEDS : difficult to test, actually. FAT32 : 1 file, size 485 MB took 4.4 secs (112 MB/s) NTFS : 1 file, size 485 MB took 4.7 secs (102 MB/s) FAT32 : 95 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 6.8 secs (72.0 MB/s) NTFS : 95 image files, average file size 5.1 MB took 7.5 secs (65.0 MB/s) So as long as you write files smaller than say 512 MB each AND the total size is less than about 1024 MB, you should get write speeds of more than 40 MB/s. For single (not large) files you should get more than 55 MB/s. NTFS is generally faster than FAT32 for writing. For reading you should easily get more than 100 MB/s. FAT32 is faster for reading. Keep in mind performance may differ on your system depending on your hardware. Screenshots of some tests attached.

The product is good. But this is metal body so it heats after some time of usage.

Honestly this pendrive is good in looks full metal body & lil bit of weight but the speed is 36MB/S that’s an average not fast but not too slow & I ordered 2 of them, each has 57.2GB storage. Rated 3⭐️ because of slow speed because sandisk says it gives upto 150MB/S but its not it only give maximum 36MB/S.

Great material & Read/Write speeds.
