Sandisk’s 1TB Extreme Fit USB-C Flash Drive (currently $110, down from $120) reaches up to 400MB/s read speeds on a USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection, and can sit in a MacBook Pro or Windows laptop port with almost no overhang.
That means you can enjoy large, fast, always-available storage without worrying the drive getting bumped, snagged, or otherwise accidentally damaged. I've broken a couple of full-sized flash drives over the years, so I know firsthand how easy it is to do.
Using published dimensions and simple volume maths, the Sandisk Extreme Fit USB-C drive works out at roughly 4060 cubic millimeters.
It’s tiny, sure, but I've found five even smaller plug and stay drives. While none of these reach 1TB of storage, they do have other benefits (including being cheap), which makes them worth considering.
