For weeks, the 32GB Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB Type-C (SDDDC4-032G-G46) has been my constant companion. I’ve used it to transfer large files between my laptop and phone, backed up important documents, and even stored a substantial library of high-resolution photos. This review details my experience with this compact yet surprisingly capable flash drive.

The SDDDC4-032G-G46 boasts a sleek, silver metal casing that feels surprisingly robust for its size. It’s noticeably heavier than many plastic alternatives, lending a sense of quality. The USB Type-C connector slides smoothly, and I’ve had no issues with it becoming loose or damaged.

The advertised USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface delivers on its promise of speed, which we’ll delve into more deeply in the next section. The simplicity of plug-and-play functionality is a huge plus – no drivers or complicated setup is required. It truly is just plug and go.

The read speeds consistently matched the advertised 150MB/s during my tests, which is excellent for a drive of this size and price point. Transferring large video files, particularly 4K footage, was remarkably quick. The write speeds, while slightly lower than the read speeds (around 110MB/s), were still impressive. I experienced no noticeable lag during file transfers or backups.

I subjected the drive to a rigorous test, transferring over 20GB of data – a mix of photos, videos, and documents – and it performed flawlessly. There were no errors, and the transfer was completed within a reasonable timeframe.

Pros:

• Fast read and write speeds.
• Durable metal casing.
• Simple plug-and-play functionality.
• Compact and portable design.
• Good value for money.

Cons:

• Write speed is slightly lower than read speed, though still fast.
• No significant downsides encountered during testing.

Overall, the 32GB Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB Type-C (SDDDC4-032G-G46) is an excellent flash drive that significantly exceeded my expectations. Its combination of speed, durability, and affordability makes it a strong contender in its class. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone in need of reliable and portable storage.
