The 5 Best USB-C Thumb Drives (From 8GB, to 1TB)

While USB-C is the new standard on many smartphones and PCs, the selection of flash drives is still slim.

With that in mind, we found five thumb drives that stand apart from the pack due to pricing, design, or features.

It certainly won’t weigh you down at .12 ounces and the compact device has plenty of speed. Read/write times on the Samsung MUF-128DA/AM come in at around 400MB/s.

Samsung USB-C Flash Drive

Best Overall

It’s resistant to extreme vibrations and shocks but is also waterproof up to 200 meters thanks to an EPDM seal.

Corsair Flash Survivor Stealth

Most Durable

The read speed is listed at 1,000MB/s, which makes it one of the faster drives on our list.

Kingston DataTraveler Max

Best 1TB USB Thumb Drive

On one side is a USB-C plug, while the other has a USB-A plug, although it doesn’t swivel like comparable drives.

Kingston DataTraveler Micro Duo

Best Micro Dual Drive

It has a modern design, but with the company’s familiar slide system still intact. You can slide the dial back to retract the USB-C connector or reveal the USB-C plug on the other end.

SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive

Best Budget
