Hi friends,this is the review of sandisk ultra fit usb 3.0 pen drive. As the name suggests, it is very small in size, just a little bigger than the USB plug. It is an ultra low profile pen drive with just 10 mm length, but claims to provide upto 130 MBps data transfer speeds, but is it really this much fast? ,here we will give our review.

Now, we will look at the body of pen drive. The plug is made up of aluminium, and not from steel used in most pen drives. It has model number,serial number,memory size,and "USB 3.0" written on it. The dimensions of the pen drive are just 0.8 x 0.6 x 0.4 inches without cap. The main body of the pen drive is just 2.3 mm wide.This makes this pen drive ultra portable. But this much small size introduces some other problems. We will come to that later.
Performance
Once the drivers of the pen drive are automatically installed, the pen drive is opened as soon as you insert it. We have tested the pen drive in USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports.But the performance was different in laptops and desktop PC's.In case of laptop,in USB 3.0 port,the read speed was about 70 Mbps and write speed 16 MBps was about ,and on using USB 2.0 port, the read speed was about 25MBps and the write speed was about 8MBps .
And in case of desktop PC,in USB 2.0 port,the read speed was about 45 MBps and write speed was about 17 MBps ,and on using USB 3.0 port, the read speed was about 80 MBps and the write speed was about 18.5 MBps.As you can notice,in laptop,speed was not much,but in Desktop PC,speeds are very high.
