SanDisk Ultra 256GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive

This SanDisk Ultra flash drive provides 256GB of portable storage with a USB 3.0 interface. It delivers transfer speeds up to 100MB/s for moving large media files quickly. The sleek black design is compact enough for a pocket or bag. Included SecureAccess software adds 128-bit AES encryption and password protection.

Best for portable file transfer, not for system boot

The drive suits users who need fast, high-capacity storage for photos, videos and documents on the go. USB 2.0 compatibility ensures it works with older ports. Buyers who need a bootable operating system drive or internal SSD speeds should look at other product types.

Transfer speed up to 100MB/s

The headline specification is the 100MB/s maximum transfer rate enabled by the USB 3.0 interface. This speed determines how quickly large files move between the drive and a computer. Verify that your host device supports USB 3.0 to achieve the rated performance.

Questions about this item

Does my computer need a USB 3.0 port to reach the 100MB/s transfer speed?

Yes, a USB 3.0 port is required for the advertised 100MB/s rate; the drive will fall back to USB 2.0 speeds on older ports.

Will this drive work on a PC that only has USB 2.0 ports?

The drive is USB 2.0-compatible, so it will function on older ports at their native speed.

How can I confirm the 128-bit AES encryption is active on my files?

Open SanDisk SecureAccess, create a password-protected vault, and verify the lock icon appears beside the vault name.
