SanDisk Ultra Flair 16 GB USB 3.0 Drive

The SanDisk Ultra Flair is a 16 GB USB flash drive built for everyday file transport. It uses a USB 3.0 interface to move data at up to 130 MB/s. A sleek metal casing protects the drive from knocks and drops. Integrated password protection helps keep private files secure.

Ideal for quick transfers; not for heavy workloads

Students and office workers moving documents, photos or videos between computers will appreciate the speed boost over USB 2.0. The metal body survives daily carry in a bag or pocket. Users who need sustained write performance for running operating systems or large databases should consider drives designed for that workload.

Up to 130 MB/s read speed decides suitability

The headline transfer rate of up to 130 MB/s determines how fast large folders copy to the drive. Actual write speeds vary by file type and host system. If your workflow demands consistent high write throughput, verify independent benchmarks before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 16 GB capacity or a larger size?

This listing is the 16 GB model. Choose it if you need a compact, metal-cased drive for documents and media; step up to a higher capacity only when your storage needs exceed 16 GB.

What does the 130 MB/s headline speed mean when I copy files to my PC?

The 130 MB/s figure is the maximum read speed over USB 3.0. Real-world transfers will be lower and depend on file types, the host controller and the drive’s write performance.

How does the USB 3.0 interface limit actual throughput?

USB 3.0 caps the bus at 5 Gb/s, so even though the drive can read at up to 130 MB/s, the port’s bandwidth ceiling and protocol overhead set the practical maximum.
