Rank #5 in Best 64GB USB Flash Drive 2026: 9 Ranked, and Three Spec Sheets That Contradict Themselves
SanDisk Cruzer Blade 64GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The SanDisk Cruzer Blade 64GB is a black USB-A flash drive priced at £9.99, and it takes number 5 in this guide to 64GB USB flash drives. SanDisk lists it with 64GB of storage, 128-bit AES encryption through the included SecureAccess software, and a bullet that says the family runs from 8GB to 128GB. The listing carries a 4.6 rating from 286,587 ratings.
The speed figures here are the ones that do not repeat each other. The Read Speed field says 30 Megabytes Per Second. The Write Speed field says 10.0 and attaches no unit at all, so the listing never tells you whether that is 10 MB/s or something else — the two numbers cannot be put side by side because only one of them has a unit. What the field does show is a write figure below the read figure, which is how a flash drive behaves; it is not the copy-paste pattern you find in the listings higher up this guide, where the write field simply repeats the read. Two separate fields, Hardware Interface and Flash Memory Type, both read USB 2.0. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing, not from a test of our own.
How those 286,587 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.6 stars.
