SanDisk’s new flash drive is a pretty storage accessory for phones, laptops and more

Portable storage is always a good investment. Be it compact flash drives or other bigger options, portable storage lets you store files and move them between devices quickly, and while being completely offline, which means they have your back in sketchy network areas where cloud storage can’t help you. However, portable storage hasn’t been the most customisable. Western Digital’s new SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Go changes that.

Available in a variety of colours, these flash drives are not only handy, but also complement your phone or laptop. With a Type-C port and a Type-A port, the SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Go can be used with most desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones, including the new iPhone 15 series, without needing any extra adapters.

The drives also support up to 400MBps transfer speeds (select variants) and are available in storage variants starting from 32GB, all the way to 256GB. This makes them ideal for storing everything from important documents and personal files to vacation libraries and your favourite albums, all offline and available one plug away.

The SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Go is available in Black, Mint Green, Navy Blue, Absinthe Green, Lavender, Navagio Bay, and Peach colours. Pricing starts at Rs 659 for the 32GB variant to Rs 3,809 for the 512GB variant. However, these variants are capped out at 150MBps speeds. The 400MBps speeds are only available on 128GB and 256GB variants, priced starting at Rs 1,219.
