Strengths:
Was on sale for 29.99$
The price was good given the capacity.
The capacity is good given the price I paid.
Weaknesses:
The speed is abysmal. It's slower than some USB 2.0 I have. They're lying when they say it's USB 3.0 Gen1. The speed is especially bad if you're transferring a lot of very small files at once.
Additional Comments:
If you're just looking for a large backup thumb drive and speed isn't an issue go ahead. If you're looking to transfer stuff rather quickly look elsewhere. There are several other options around 50$ CAN that should perform a lot better than this thing. I still gave it 3 stars for the price to capacity value.

Strengths:
It looks nice?
Build quality feels good
Weaknesses:
Slower than molasses on a cold winter day.
Additional Comments:
Seriously. This thing is comically slow. The product description says "entry level USB 3.1". Come on, just call it what it is. It's a USB 2.0 drive.
Max Write 14 MB/s (but consistently < 10 MB/s)
Max Read 24 MB/s
Maybe I'll find a use for it... but it certainly wont do what I bought it for.
