I think your deal was quite good, I think it is only cold due to the pricing mistake. Now that it's cold, herd mentality will probably just keep clicking cold regardly of your efforts.

Does anyone know, do these things get red hot when transferring a decent amount of data in one go?

Same price on Amazon

Will these work with an iPad Pro (2020 or 2021 version)?

I have three of these for moving files between devices. Highly recommend it.

Why would anyone need 10gbps on a 16gb drive? Do you need a F1 to complete a race with total distance of 2m?

These are very very slow

memorycow.co.uk now have it for £58.99

Looks good. Thanks for this @sam.watt

anyone recommend something similar wit h same form factor but with 100mb write speed ?

According to the below review of the 256GB version of this flash drive the write speed is between 64MB/sec and 72MB/sec. “The SanDisk Ultra Fit definitely isn't the fastest USB 3.1 drive available, but it is speedy in its own right. Running a synthetic benchmark, I saw speeds top out at 142 MB/s read and 72 MB/s write, which is slightly above what SanDisk advertises. In a real-world test transferring a 5GB video file, write speeds capped at around 64 MB/s.” Source: Windows Central Review Other sources quote 23MB/sec which would be very slow if transferring large amounts of data.

Seeing the price of this makes me even happier with my decision to instead purchase a Crucial P5 500GB NVMe m.2 drive for £35.99 yesterday. Miles faster performance for both read and write speeds and nearly half the cost. Yes, mine will be bigger than this but it is still very portable inside my Plugable enclosure.

Manufacturer quoted endurance (TBW) is more related to warranty rather than actual NAND endurance, usually it's X amount of years or up to X TBW. That being said the Sandisk Ultra drive uses TLC NAND while the Samsung 870 QVO uses QLC, so the lifetime of the latter will be lower and once you exhaust the uSLC cache the QVO will slow down to HDD-level write speeds, while the Ultra will most likely hold 500MB/s. Having tried a few QLC drives so far, I'd highly recommend against them. They're okay if you don't write often, but there will inevitably be times where the much slower QLC writes will become annoying.

There is samsung 870 Qvo which has much better endurance than this one and slightly cheaper, only downside is 3 years warranty https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/2tb-samsung-870-qvo-25-qlc-sata-iii-ssd-560530mbs-2gb-dram-cache-pick-your-ubisoft-game-for-ps15088-delivered-at-box-3711937?utm_source=mappshare&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=3711937&utm_campaign=2021-04-26

Unfortunately, it's not.

Is an Amazon credit card fee free?
