not this exact model though it looks the same, visually. really useful to have portable storage wherever I need it.

Those are USB 2, then. That'll be quite slow for moving iso's onto and booting from.

Not to mention for moving the files of a steam game.

But yeah, the old solid state storage NAND in them is probably "built different", literally.

They do still sell the design ("Cruzer"). At least, the outer casing part. Though I suppose they could be totally shit and cheap on the inside ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Sounds to me like you need an external ssd and not a usb drive. I recommend Asus TUF Gaming A1 nvme enclosure (~50โ‚ฌ where I live) and an ssd of your choice.

My 32gb version was recently upgraded and it never gave out. They'll take a pretty serious beating.
