Locate files saved in multiple locations Speaking for ourselves, we liked the fact that we could send sample images from cameras from our phones to a notebook without having to sign into a cloud service or firing up apps on both devices ( Snapdrop is rather cool, though, if both devices are on the same network although you would need the Internet for it).

Which brings us to the title of this story. Does the (fine, we will give it its full name this time) SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB Type C do enough for the Rs 1,699 it charges for the 128 GB variant? Well, we think it does. In fact, we would say it is one of those gadgets that are close to a necessity for anyone who uses multiple devices like phones, tablets, and notebooks. It is not just about the storage but the convenience to switch data between devices. Of course, you can also use it to free up space on your device! Mobile device requires USB Type-C port and On-The-Go (OTG) support. See www.sandisk.com/dualdrive-c for list of compatible devices.

The way we store and access data has radically changed over the last few years. However, even in an age where we fetch most of our media and data directly from the cloud, we still frequently keep running into situations where local storage solutions like flash drives prove more convenient and reliable. Access and organize all your photos and files from one spot. The SanDisk Memory Zone app lets you easily move content between your phone, microSD cards, SanDisk Dual Drives and cloud storage. When inserted, the drive is automatically detected (on most phones).

There is also a keychain hole, but we didn’t have the heart to affix this shiny drive to our keychain (that would be tantamount to maximum torture). We tested the 128GB capacity variant for this review. The drive comes pre-formatted with the exFAT file system which makes it compatible with Android, Windows, and Mac OS devices. Sandisk claims up to 150Mbps sequential read/write speeds and the Ultra Dual Drive Luxe could manage almost this speed on benchmarks. Western Digital has now returned to that “One Drive To Store Them All” formula with the SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB Type C. We will just call it the Ultra Dual henceforth, for the sake of simplicity and a more representative word count. We got the 128 GB version and well, it cuts a very impressive and very compact figure. It is solid metal with a USB Type C (3.1) attachment on one side and a conventional USB (Type A) 3.1 on the other. So you can plug it into any device with a USB Type C port or a conventional USB port. Once done, grant the necessary permissions and then add Sandisk dual drive to the Memory zone app by tapping on “Add Storage”. That’s it. We got the 128 GB version and suddenly, we discovered that sending files between devices was as easy as plug, copy, paste, eject, and repeat! We were sending files between a OnePlus 8 Pro and an iPad Pro, and iPad Pro and a Windows machine, a MacBook Air and a Galaxy Note 2 Ultra by just using this handy little gadget. You do not need to worry about Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. This is a good old plug and copy and paste play at its best. With a read speed of 150 MB/second, this is a very fast drive – you can transfer a gig of data to and from your device in less than a minute. A slight catch – it heats up a fair bit. We suspect that metallic casing has something to do with it.

In terms of functionality, however, the Ultra Dual have a big advantage that their predecessors did not. In the past, the connecting ports of mobile phones, tablets, and notebooks used to be different. Today, many have a similar USB Type C port, and a fair number also do not have microSD card slots! And that literally adds a new dimension to this handy little device. Attach your drive to your keyring to keep it convenient and secure. Now you’ll always have it handy if you need to free up space when you’re out and about. There was a time when expandable storage meant investing in a microSD card if you were using a tablet or a phone, or a portable HDD or a flash drive if you were using a notebook. They were two different parts of the byte-ridden storage universe. Yes, you could use adaptors and connect a phone to a flash drive or connect a microSD card to a notebook, but out of the box, they were two different kinds of storage, for two different systems. There had been attempts made to bridge the two, with flash drives that could plug into both a micro USB port (a phone) and a USB port (on a notebook) and others that connected wireless to the devices, but by and large, these had limited success.Just select what you need and ‘Copy’ or ‘Move’ it to the SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Luxe.
