Subscribe to our newsletter For World Backup Day, my team and I have been on the hunt for top deals on storage - and this is the USB flash drive I
swear by. SanDisk's Ultra Flair may not be fancy, it's not ultra-fast like a portable SSD, but it's sleek, comes in a range of capacities, and for backing up files and photos, it's performed absolutely brilliantly in my experience.

In the US, the SanDisk Ultra Flair 128GB USB drive is now $16.46 (was $17.88) at Amazon . In the UK, the same SanDisk Ultra Flair is down to 17.97 (was 24.99) at Amazon . If you're looking for a simple bit of kit to create data backups without breaking the bank, this one is an easy recommendation. And

stick with a Type-A connector. Using USB 3.0, it reaches transfer speeds of 150MB/s, and features password protection using SanDisk's app. It's available in a range of storage sizes. View Deal Save 28% SanDisk Ultra Flair 128GB USB flash drive: was 24.99 now 17.97 at Amazon The same USB flash drive is also
on sale in the UK via Amazon. For the price, I don't think you can go wrong with this simple storage device - it's been my reliable data backup device
for ages. View Deal Coming from one of the top storage-makers, the SanDisk Ultra Flair is a simple storage device for reliable backups.

I've had no issues with it since I bought it, and it's currently tucked
safely away, stuffed full of all manner of documents (and yes, they're all backed up on two different cloud storage platforms, too).

Speeds are good, at 150 MB/s using USB 3.0. Ok, it's not breaking any land-speed records, but SanDisk estimates you can "transfer a full-length movie in less than 30 seconds." And, honestly, for .docx files and the like, I've found it more than fast enough for my needs.

When it comes to storage capacity, the model ranges between 16GB right up to 1TB (which is $150 at Amazon.com and 151 at Amazon.co.uk ).

As an inveterate deal-hunter, I've looked around and can't find the same
drive cheaper than Amazon (and if you do, buy it). For some reason, Best Buy are selling the 64GB model for an eye-watering $51 , while Walmart has the 128GB drive for $25 .

In the UK, that 64GB version is still more expensive than the 128GB model, costing 18 at Currys , with Argos selling the 128GB drive for 24 .

What really sealed the deal for me when shopping for USB pen drives was that this one offers secure file encryption and password protection when you use SanDisk's SecureAccess software.

If World Backup Day has you searching for a dependable USB drive, then for
me, this is a home office essential. US: See all USB flash drive deals at Amazon UK: See all USB flash drive deals at Amazon
