****You should read this*****
I think I have to post this for you guys not to be cheated.
Trust me it is not easy detecting a fake one from an original until you open it. The original one has been in use since 2011 and it is still working but I lost about 52gb of sensitive data after purchasing a 64gb fake drive last month.
Sandisk Cruzer Blade is one of the best flash drives available in terms of write and read speed.They are very fast and instead of corrupting your data when they are going bad the flash drive will automatically write protect itself to save the data inside it but unfortunately the clones and fakes are now rampant nowadays and in the markets especially in computer village ikeja. 90% are fakes
If you plan on getting one before buying always check the flash port via the transparent space..Looking through the flash usb port it should be green not black!
Have a great time!

Really educating. Just confirmed that my 16gb San disk is original✔️

Great to know sir.

I think this information is not correct. Genuine SanDisk Cruzer Blade memory sticks used to have green circuit boards, but they seem to be black now. (I have both). The fakes are black too. So just looking at the package from the outside will not tell you. Buy from a quality vendor, and check with a linux live disk using the lsusb command from terminal.

I found these Sandisk memory sticks to be very reliable and compatible across a lot of consumer devices, but write speed is unfortunately very slow!
