Samsung BAR Plus 64GB to 512GB Flash Drive

About the Samsung BAR Plus

Hang it on your key ring and the BAR Plus travels as a solid metal bar with a USB-A plug at one end. You get 64GB to 512GB on USB 3.2 Gen 1, and it also works in USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports at their own slower speeds.

Samsung rates reads at up to 300 MB/s on the 64GB and up to 400 MB/s from 128GB to 512GB. A 5-year limited warranty covers it, and Samsung lists an operating range of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius along with water, shock, magnet and X-ray resistance.
