Only reason for 4 stars is that the plastic shell is vulnerable to breakage if the drive is sent unprotected in the mail. Ive switched to Sandisk Flair flash drives from B&H, which consist of a metal housing with only the loop at the end being made of plastic. Far more durable for my needs.

Yes, I would recommend this flash drive to others. It's a great bang for the buck and has good security software. Honestly, the only reason to buy a SanDisk product is for the software. A 5 year warranty is good too. I really wish other colors were an option. The shape of this is strange too.

I really like the SanDisk SecureAccess software, which is the main reason that I bought this; It's basically the SanDisk modified version of ENC DataVault; The software from ENC is $14.99 for a license that works on 3 devices.

I really hate the colors of SanDisk flash drives; Black is horrid for computer products because it shows dust and dirt like crazy and it's ugly; In the 1990's computer products were often beige and even that was less ugly.

Purchased this as a storage device for my smart TV. Plugged it in and it worked, what else is there to say about a memory stick.. I suppose for my purpose it is physically a little large but for most purposes it is large enough not to get lost easily and not too large to store.
