  • Would this be suitable for running 24/7 plugged into a router?

    I've heard some review the usb stick heat up a lot?

      I would say no for the reason you just stated.

      100% no. i've fried one of these USBs after watching a movie off it ~90mins. definitely for copying files only

    • Had it stable in my Raspberry pi 2 for around a month now as the root filesystem..

      • hmm interesting….

        I'm considering using it on a Asus RT-AC87U, USB 3.0 port is awkwardly placed on the front of the unit under a flap and this stick would perfectly hide in there.

        • raspberry pi port is usb 2.0, I also use it to record/watch tv, not sure why people report frying sticks? perhaps luck of the draw?

          I've bought a few of these from shopping express and a few from MSY.

          2 out of the 3 I bought from shopping express were fine. 1 of them overheated when plugged into either a laptop or PC or router. SO much so that the data on the 16GB drive became corrupted. I returned it successfully for a refund. All of the other drives have worked flawlessly. I have had one stuck in my Asus RT-AC68 router (running Merlin firmware) for months now, and it's working fine.

          I mentioned words to this effect in another thread a week or so ago, and was going to buy some then, but bought some sandisk extreme USB 3 sticks instead. Unfortunately they're not great for me as some computers don't like booting from them - which is what I originally wanted to use them for - for booting up and imaging PCs. Annoying as they're super fast flash drives, but something to do with the way they work - some specification they adhere to - stops them from booting certain PCs/laptops.

          I'm going to buy a few of these 32GB ones for now… until I find something else to use instead. Thanks.

          The gist is… I'd say the overheating ones are faulty, and should be returned for a refund or replacement.

        As root I would imagine that there is little in the way of write and read going on unless you were using it for video data recording.
