Lexar D40E Dual Drive 64GB to 256GB Flash Drive

About the Lexar D40E Dual Drive

Laptops, Macs and USB-C phones with OTG support can all read the D40E, which turns on a 360° swivel to show either its USB-C or its USB-A plug. You get 64GB, 128GB or 256GB in a metal body, and Lexar rates transfers at up to 100 MB/s.

No cap means nothing to lose in your bag. Lexar gives a 3-year limited warranty, includes security software with 256-bit AES encryption, and states an operating range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. The drive weighs 26g, and a 2-pack lets two people move files between phone and computer.
