Comment on Why Are Micro Center Flash Drives So Slow?
randombullet@programming.dev 1 week agoNot cheap, but I just use cheap 256gb sata M.2 drives and a tool less enclosure.
Runs at sata speeds and are cheap. Plus the enclosure supports NVMe so I could run around with a 8TB stick.

I had a 1 TB one I used for the longest time. My only complaint is that it never played well with any of my Linux devices (Steam Deck randomly decided it was done reading it and I had to unplug it and my Bazzite device just locks up)

Strangely enough I’ve had the opposite.
My pcie 4.0x4 drive was giving me about 200MB/s on windows and when I plugged it into a Linux machine, full drive speed.

That’s weird on the windows speeds. I believe mine is a 4.0x4 too and I got full speeds on everything. Id have to assume it’s a Windows issue though
