Need basic 16/32GB pen drives. Regular USB-A. Fast. SanDisk Extreme seems to have disappeared from the market. Most of the models I see are the same shit from 5 years ago or 2-in-1 drives.

Ended up ordering SanDisk Ultra SDDDC2-064G-I35 64 GB Pen Drive.

Turned out to be smaller in size than I had expected. Two different connectors mean that actual size of the storage part is even smaller. Which probably means that it would heat up similar to the tiny single connector drives Sandisk sells. But I guess it's nice to have a USB-C pen drive at home. Connects to my phone, my chromebook without an adapter.

Yes SanDisk Extreme is very good. I have a Corsair Flash Voyager GTX which gives me 150 mbps plus speeds. These drives have an SSD controller I guess. Most high end pen drives have been made redundant by external SSDs now which for not a lot of extra size give you way better speeds and VFM for larger capacities.

the one I was mentioning was this:

Seems to have decent speeds based on benchmarks
