Excellent and very portable storage device
Customer Rating
5.0
The SanDisk Ultra 64GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive is of high quality, and is excellent as a very small portable storage device. I use it for backup/restore of my laptop PC, which requires about 40GB of external storage. The USB 3 speed is far superior to USB 2, which would require five to ten times longer to store this much backup data.

The Yamaha Aventage 810W was easy to set up and performs flawlessly. The Audio Return functions as advertised, and makes the process very user friendly. The built-in APS such as Pandora are very convenient, and I can have music playing in a few seconds by simply turning the system on.

5.0
This is my first use of an SSD, which is a 480GB PNY. I installed the PNY on my ASUS N56JR and used Acronis to transfer my WIN10 to the PNY. After doing so, I performed several optimizing operations such as disable prefetch, superfetch, auto optimizing, etc., and have been amazed at how much faster the startup, and all my usual applications now load and run. I downloaded the PNY Drive Utility, which makes it easy to check/install firmware and other updates. This is well worth the money.

This mouse has an integrating usb attachment which allowed me to also connect and use a M705 (gaming) mouse to use interchangeably with my computer, without tying up additional usb ports. The mouse is very sensitive to movement, even on smooth, glossy surfaces, has several options for the wheel, plus very long battery life.

This BlueRay player was functional, but out of date with respect to newer more modern players, which perform 4k upscaling, etc. I returned it and purchased a higher-end player.

APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY PICTURES WILL A SAN DISK 8GB 3.0 FLASH DRIVE HOLD? NORMAL SIZE PICTURES TAKEN WITH 35MM SINGLE USE CAMERA 400 SPEED?
This is totally dependent on how many megapixels your camera is using per picture, and how much compression the camera performs. Modern small cameras use anywhere from 5 to 12 (or more) million pixels, or even higher for each picture. Divide this number into 8 Gigabytes (8,000,000,000) and you will get some idea of how many pictures can be stored. For example, using a 8 megapixel camera, the 8 GB drive should hold at least 1,000 pictures, and probably many more depending on the compression factor.

How do I delete a file that it says can't be deleted
I have a file of pictures on it that I want to delete so I can replace it with a new file. I'm using this on an automatic picture frame that displays the pictures in the file when the stick is inserted in to the frames USB port
Load the USB stick onto your computer, which should automatically display the contents using, e.g., Windows File Explorer. If the files that are displayed are in a folder, double-click the folder to open it to show you the contents. Then right-click on whatever you want to delete, such as utility programs, etc., and select delete. Then close out (e.g., x-out) the folder and (for safety of usb stick contents) select the "safely remove device" option on your computer. If you can't find the safely remove button, just remove the usb stick, and all should be ok.
