Are you seriously interested in waiting 8 hours to transfer bulk data to your 128 gig USB 2.0 drive? Because yes, that's what I accidentally bought.

- toast0 5y agoBetter to wait 8 hours than to melt my hand. But I also haven't had occassion for a 128 gig usb drive. I usually use them for ferrying small data files to other computers, scanners where usb is less tedious than getting the network drivers to work, and booting operating systems when pxe is too tedious. None of those use cases require copying more than about a gig at once.
- BizarroLand 5y agoThey make nice sized usb 3.0 large storage drives for very little money that don't heat up and have fantastic transfer speeds. I have a 256gb usb drive that cost me about $35 (on sale) that can transfer at 200-300 megabytes per second. I don't have need of it often but I wouldn't want to use a slower drive for large files.
