That's my gold standard. I've used just about everything under the sun. They've all failed, except this one. I have a few of these now. They've survived all kinds of punishment. Hell even being left in my pocket and going through several wash/dry cycles.

I have an upcoming contender if it keeps going, and it's a ~~Kingston~~ Lexar. 128gig I use mostly for work. All metal housing, no moving parts and attached to my keychain. It's not been wash/dried yet. But it goes with me every day. And it's used nearly daily too.

Edit: Nvm, just looked at right now, my keychain drive is also Lexar, so NVM, Lexar all day 'er day.

My survivor usb is a lexar too, that's one of the reasons I recently bought an ssd from them, I hope that it has the same quality, and if yes, it'll become my go-to brand for storage devices

Also, I have an 8 year old kingston ssd and it's still working, so I recommend those, but my kingston flash drive failed after around 2 years, but it can't be that bad of a choise
