HujDenj 256GB metal USB flash drive

A polished all-metal 256GB flash drive with a key ring, for under $20 when I bought it.

I’m not sure why things don’t get five-star reviews when they just do what they’re supposed to do. This HujDenj 256GB USB drive was basically one of the cheapest 256GB drives I could find, and it’s slick looking. I’ve copied files to and from it with no problems. The HujDenj listing is gone, so the button goes to a similar metal 256GB drive with a keychain hole.

Build and design

It’s an all-metal drive, and except for the little loop for the key ring, it’s no wider than the USB plug itself. The key ring comes packaged separately and installs in seconds.

My one gripe: the polished silver shows fingerprints like the dickens. A bead-blasted or media-blasted finish would be my preference, but it looks beautiful.

Speed and use

I plugged it into my computer and copied things to and from it without any problems. I don’t know the exact read and write speed, and I wouldn’t call it amazing, but it works.

This is about big storage, not speed.

About the buy link

The video had no product link, and the HujDenj drive is no longer listed. The button goes to a 256GB metal USB 3.0 thumb drive with a keychain hole. It’s a different brand, so check the listing for speed and warranty.

Value

When I bought it, a big-brand 128GB drive was about $35 or $36, and 256GB was more like $60 or $70. Getting 256GB for under $20 is about a two-thirds savings.

If you need a big, cheap flash drive for backups or moving files, it’s a good option.
