The SanDisk 64GB Ultra Flair flash drive is currently half off during Prime Day, on sale for just $17.

That's 55% off the regular price of $40, a great deal for a USB-A 3.0 flash drive that's great for students, professionals, creators, and transferring large files in seconds and minutes.

With read and write speeds of up to 150 MB/s with a USB 3.0 port, you can transfer large 4K video files in minutes or less. This particular drive has a metal casing that is durable enough for everyday wear and tear, with a "handle" design that ensures you always insert the drive the right way into the USB port and on the first try.

You've also got additional security, with password protection enabled by 128-bit AES encryption that's supported as far back as Windows 7. And yes, it's also compatible with MacBooks. You'll just need to download the SanDisk MacOS software, which is easy enough to set up.

The 64GB drive at this sale price is nothing short of a steal, as you're getting more storage for less than the 16GB version, which is regularly priced at $26 and not currently on sale.

To put 64GB of storage into perspective, this is enough for several thousand image files or about 10 to 15 hours of large 4K video files. If you're just putting audio on it, this is enough space to hold as many as 10,000 songs.

How I rated this deal

I gave this deal a 5/5 because it's over half off. A 64GB drive for just $17 is a great deal, no matter how you look at it.

Amazon Prime Day goes from Tuesday, June 23, to Friday, June 26, 2026. This timeframe is a little earlier than the typical July sale event.
