Review: Small, durable, dependable and blazing fast. - I've purchased the Samsung Bar Plus 3.1 USB Flash Drive 13 times between October 2018 and October 2024, including various capacities such as 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB. The quality, reliability, and blazing fast performance of these flash drives have been consistently impressive. After four years of heavy use in countless machines, one of the 256GB flash drives stopped working on September 25, 2025. Fortunately, I had just made a backup copy, so I wasn't too worried. Samsung Support was amazing to work with; the representative provided a link to complete the RMA form and assured me that a UPS return label would arrive by email within 48 hours. I highly recommend these flash drives for their quality, durability, outstanding performance and excellent customer service. The attached screenshots from CrystalDiskMark 9.01 are test results of Default, Peak Performance, Real World Performance and Demo test profiles. I’ve also attached a picture of the Samsung flash drive along with the UGREEN USB to USB C Adapter and JSAUX USB C to USB Adapter. Both of these adapters are great!
Review: Fast and rugged - Samsung makes quality hardware and they got this design right. It is simple and sleek which not only looks classy but ensures it fits into any USB port without crowding out other USB devices next to it. Since they make everything from the flash memory inside to the outer shell Samsung has total control over quality. Reliability is the main reason to buy this drive. The flash memory will last for many write cycles and the drive itself is built to take abuse. I gave this to a family member who accidentally put it through their washing machine and dryer but because Samsung wisely made it a sealed unit the drive survived. We did a full reformat to check every cell and there wasn't a single error. The drive came out of an extended wash and dry cycle fully operational. This is the USB drive to get.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: whats the write speed?**
A: I'm getting the same as everyone else. 25MB/s write speed and 150MB/s read.

**Q: Can I encrypt this drive?**
A: I used Linux and used LUKS(Linux Unified Key Setup) and yes the drive encrypted. I use is for a Persistence Live File System. MX Linux runs perfect on it.

**Q: The hole on the end looks very small. How well do these flash drives fit on your keys?**
A: I agree with the first responder who said that the width of the thing on the end is an issue.  It causes the drive to not want to move freely on my keychain, which causes it to occasionally poke my leg while in my pocket, or just feel a bit awkward.  I never experienced this with my Kingston drive, which has a wide hole that is flat and symmetrical, allowing it to move freely and sit flat against my leg while in my pocket.  I also had a hard time getting my key loop through the hole.  My keychain is one of those that has a small steel wire loop with a locking mechanism.  The end of the wire has a small grommet which was just a bit too large to fit through the hole of this Samsung drive.  I had to drill it out a little bigger, which was very difficult to do, and scratched it up a bit.  Now that it's one the key ring, it digs into my leg a bit, as I mentioned.  Overall I am displeased enough with the design that I'm here looking for something else.  I would have stuck with Kingston but it was so SLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW.

**Q: Has anyone had to Warrenty**
A: I have several of these drives for quite a while and have not had a problem.   This is consistent with my prior experience with Samsung products (i.e., they tend to be quite reliable).  However, in the past I had to deal with Samsung service for warranty issues on another product.  Their warranty service was terrible.  They ignored my claim for months. Every time I contacted them they said they would get back to me shortly.  They never got back to me.  It took many months to get service from them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product
*by M***N on November 25, 2025*

Works as it should and was great bang for the buck. Interesting shape and decent size. Seems to write plenty quick enough; and I've never noticed any heat, though I don't overly tax it. A good basic backup device.
