    5 out of 5 stars
    This will work.
    Update: The review below was a user-error, my mistake was that it did work. I simply just inserted the USB into the new device and it installed the OS. I've changed this from a 1 star to a 5 star.I bought the 32GB flash drive to install Linux for my laptop. Straight out of the package, I inserted into my desktop and it asked me if I wanted to format the drive. That typically means that in order for the computer to read the data on the storage, it needs to be configured into a certain format.As you can see from the images that were attached, the flash drive is write-protected, meaning that you cannot access or change the device. I've searched online on how to disable the write-protection, and have tried all of the methods. The answer that I've found was that the write-protection is hard-locked from the hardware specifications. Meaning that you can't format the flash drive at all.Essentially, this wasn't mentioned in the Amazon page and neither does it say on the manual. They basically scammed me and anyone who've bought this device for OS installations. Thanks a lot.

    been using Cruzer Blades for years. I keep buying larger and larger ones as they become available. It's rugged because there's no moving parts. There's no retractable useless mechanism to lock, no stupid dust cap to lose because it's not included, and those don't matter anyway. You don't need a dust cap, stop it. They're smaller than the majority of other flash drives. They're perfectly contoured and shaped to fit firmly between your thumb and index finger so that they're extremely comfortable and easy to insert. When you push them in, they go in. When you pull them out, they come out. You'll be at least 50% less likely to insert them upside-down, and they just work.

    I use them for everything. It's the best USB stick I've ever had attached to a keychain with 2 huge truck keys, 4 other car keys, 3 tool box keys, 4 work keys, and 5 house keys as well as some rappelling gear. Years like this. I work every day, and my keys are always with me. They get banged around, have been inserted and ejected into dozens if not hundreds of Macs and PCs at home and at work and have never failed. I still have and use every one of them I've ever bought, and in every storage capacity available since they were first produced.

    They have hundreds of uses. Game storage, backups, installer media, bootable operating systems, automobile service records, presentations, desktop, documents, downloads, library, movies, music, pictures, sites, shared. All of the software I need to do my job, right there on the keychain. PDF service manuals for the equipment I repair go with me everywhere. I guess you could put stupid stuff like homework, or passwords on it, but I don't because those things aren't fun. It's more fun to plug your whole music library into one of the USB slots on your brand new, shiny, technology-packed, voice-activated 6.1 digital surround sound equipped loaded premium model 4x4 truck and tell your truck what you want to hear. It's safer, too. For you and everybody else. Of course the truck is optional, but if your vehicle is equipped with these technologies, please do this. You'll never be the distracted one. The Cruzer Blade is perfect for this in the hot summer and in the cold of winter. I know this for a fact. Years like this. Always available. It will even let you use your phone storage for more useful and practical things, or it could even allow you to buy the smaller, less expensive, less storage capacity model of the same phone saving you hundreds of dollars. If you wanted to listen to music on the go, everything everywhere has USB, and it's all louder and sounds better than your phone. Go out to your truck and get it. Problem solved. Phone stays charged.

    Pros: If you need a RED and BLACK, tough, simple, durable, stealthy USB 2.0 flash drive, then this is the best one ever made. Indisputable champion.

    Cons: The form factor hasn't changed over the years, WHICH IS FANTASTIC! Don't change them in any physical or functional way... but the microscopic painted lettering eventually wears away on both sides, so you don't know if it's a 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB or 128 GB? You just know that it's the red and black one. I wish like crazy these things came in a dozen different colors. Maybe even get creative and make one that glows in the dark? Or polished Aluminum? Woodgrain? Tortoise shell? Burl? Clear? Of course I have nothing against red and black... I'm just sayin... it's the only way it could be improved, I don't know that any of this qualifies as a con? I have zero complaints with the quality of this product and my experience with using them. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings, red and black. Long live the red and black Cruzer Blade USB 2.0 flash drives!

    Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2022
    I just got this flash drive yesterday, and I am astounded as how good it is. I fiddled around with a few files that I copied and pasted, and it loaded up just fine. The real test was yet to come. The flash drive is advertised for videos, and I wanted to try to play some video games on it. If I am correct, the flash drive can "ONLY" have data going in at one time, or out at one time. With that in mind, i'm playing a high gigabyte data game perfectly fine. Best thing to do with a video game is download the entire file and updates all at one time, and don't try to play with it half downloaded in my opinion.

    This flash drive is very fast, and I recommend it for gaming, and anything else really. I have to admit, it may or may not be programed specifically for gaming, but it works fine. I have to admit, maybe my computer is a bit advanced, but I have no complaints.

    The only thing that is not making sense so much is that "sometimes" the game doens't load up perfectly, or fast enough, or at all which I believe is a software problem, not a hardware problem. Sometimes it may crash, but it's probably a software incompatibility because I AM gaming, and maybe it wasn't designed to be for gaming. The best way to solve this loading problem is just close out of the application, and reload it.

    Oh yea. If you have windows, you'll ALWAYS want to update your windows as much and often as possible because sometimes the software updates for the flash drive "might" be in it. It does require updated software to use if I am correct, but I just got it yesterday, so I cannot vouche for any software updates. Just in case, this software is from a "Windows Update" download, but it may stem from the flash drive company itself, and given to windows to distribute, but I am not their marketing manager, so I do not have any qualifications to say that, after all.

    Overall, 5 stars!!!
