Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on USB Flash Drives
I purchased this flash drive not having 100% confidence that it would live up to its spec, but I was pleasantly surprised. Although the body on the drive is flimsy in my opinion, the performance is excellent. I have tested a few flash drives using CrystalDiskMark and this showed the write performance of the SanDisk Extreme Go outperformed its younger brothers (SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive) write speed by more than 4x. The Ultra Dual writing at 35mbs and the Extreme Go writing at 144mbs. This was with the drives plugged directly into a USB 3.0 socket on the computer. If you plug it in through a hub, this will likely be considerably lower. I have mostly cheap ebay flash drives and the best write speed I got from them was 20mbs (which wasn't far off SanDisk Ultra Dual drive), and although the cheaper drives have their place and do the job, I would definitely pay that little extra for the performance you get from this device, without question. If I could give half a star, I would have given 4.5 out 5.0, purely because of the flimsy casing, although the USB connector mechanism is very robust. This is obviously my opinion, but flimsy plastic aside, I personally would still recommend the SanDisk Extreme Go, merely for its performance.Read full review

Use it for the 'TimeShift' function on Smart HDTV. Works really well. The occasional jittery movement I experienced with a Corsair USB3.0 memory stick has disappeared. Maybe that's due to some minor incompatibility between the TV and the Corsair stick or perhaps it's a speed issue as the ScanDisk specification states faster read & write speeds. Too early to judge reliability.

This has got to be the fastest 64gb usb stick around, really fast tranfer speeds. could be a little smaller though the new drives are much smaller than this

fantastic speed for everyday use! It is like 10x faster than my old 2.0 USB sticks.

Although it's fast, it's not as fast as SanDisk advertises. Write speed is about 90-110MB/s, and read speed 150-190MB/s. Still, you can't find anything faster in this price group. Reliability and build quality is good. I especially like the sliding mechanism of the connector, it seems very robust.
