Choosing the Right SanDisk USB Drive

What’s the difference between USB 2.0 and USB 3.x (3.0 / 3.1 / 3.2)?

USB 3.x is significantly faster than USB 2.0 for large transfers (photos/videos/big folders). USB drives are backward compatible, but speeds depend on the port you plug into. For best performance, pair a USB 3.x drive with a USB 3.x port.

USB-A vs USB-C vs dual: which one should I buy?

Choose USB-A for most desktops and older laptops, USB-C for newer laptops/tablets/phones, and dual USB-A + USB-C if you regularly move files between both. See USB-C picks here: best SanDisk USB-C flash drives.

What capacity do I need (32GB, 64GB, 128GB, 256GB+)?

32GB–64GB is great for documents and everyday files. 128GB works well for photos and project folders. 256GB+ is better for video, archives, or high-volume storage. For help choosing models, see: flash drive comparison guide.

Will a USB flash drive work on Windows and Mac?

Yes, but file format matters. If you move files between Windows and Mac often, exFAT is usually the most compatible option. Always back up your files before reformatting.

Can I use a flash drive with my phone or tablet?

Yes — if your device supports USB-C, a USB-C or dual drive is the simplest option. Browse: Type-C USB drives. For iPhones, you may need the right adapter depending on your model.

Are USB sticks good for backups?

They’re great for portability and a quick extra copy, but best practice is to keep at least one additional backup (external drive or cloud). USB drives should not be your only backup for critical data.

How do I keep files more secure on a USB drive?

For sensitive data, use password protection/encryption tools and keep the drive in a safe place. For business deployments, consider consistent naming/labeling and controlled distribution.

Do you offer bulk USB flash drives for teams or organizations?
