sorted byI gave up on this style and bought a M.2 SATA and an enclosure.
Not only is the write speed about ten times faster, it has decent consistency and longevity.
The last thumb drive I had was a fairly high end SanDisk and over time it slowed down dramatically.
I suspect this is better but still rubbish write speed.
But if you need something small to use with your phone, hopefully this does the job.
Yeah, and written to it in about 130 seconds. High performance lol.
If you don't mind the size, this is miles better - Type-C USB - Kingston DataTraveler Max, DTMAXA/256G 256GB 3.2 Gen 2 Flash Drive, 1,000MBs Read / 900MBs Write (edited)
Write speed isn't that bad - 100MBps+ for many of the usual workloads you'd expect for a pendrive. The real slow drives are the Kingstons, offering around 10% of that speed in some cases.
Yes, a SSD + enclosure is faster, but then you have different issues to contend with, including price and size.
