I have some of these, mostly using them for Windows images, etc and didn't experience the same. It is fast and getting super hot, that's all.
They are good just not overly fast.
Being metal they cool quicker than most.
File tramsfers are heavily dependent on what you are transferring and where you are transferring from, the 150mb/s would be under ideal conditions, most of these aren't built for speed, they are for convenience, if you want speed buy an external ssd
Price beat with Officeworks :)
https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/sandisk-ul…
Officeworks price: $36
Officeworks price beat: $19.95 x 0.95 = $18.95
I tried getting OW to pricebeat shopping square but they didn't because there is no model number on the website.
They can also reject price beat because warranty is 5 years for Officeworks model but only 1 year for Shopping Square model.
from amazon review:
No matter what I tried (including resetting the flash properties and USB 3.0 rear computer ports), when copying to it, the initial speed was around 70 - 80 MB/s but within seconds that would plummet to around 15 - 20 MB/s and stay there.
