Other than the obvious differences in the physical size and design, how does this product differ from the Sandisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive?

From what I can tell, this one has double the battery life and an extra non-removable 32/64gb of internal storage. However it seems to only work with music, photo, and video files, while the Flash Drive can also handle documents. It also apparently can't handle DRM content like the Flash Drive can, so no iTunes movie playback.

This is a regular sized drive, not a slim one. What makes them look different is the cover. It is a simple matter of switching out covers, they snap off and on.

Hi, the answer is that the "unit" IS the size of a Flashdrive, One end is a capped Micro-USB and the other end is standard size USB.It is simply that.If the images were to have been taken of the end that does not have the cap you could see that the unit was made "dual" ended.I hope that this helps I thik it is great for the size GB..

Its micro-usb on one end, and full size usb on the other. Its really not brand specific.

It has one Micro USB port. You can use a Micro USB to regular USB to connect a flash drive.

I just bought one of these a few days ago, and I bought a 2GB microSD card to go with it. When I plugged the device (with microSD inserted) into my computer, it shows up as TWO separate external drives ("disk" and "disk-1"). I then dragged files to them separately. But... when the device is removed, it displayes "refresh database, do not remove SD card" (or something similar) and thinks for about 30 seconds. After that, it appears that the two separate file systems are seen as ONE by the device itself.I am using Linux (Ubuntu 7.04). I'm not sure if it is different with Windows platforms.

I used mine once and then it quit. The company never answered my questions. You are better off with the following. Cheaper, more capacity, easier to use and way way way more versatileSanDisk Connect 32GB Wireless Flash Drive For Smartphones And Tablets- SDWS2-032G-E57

I looked in the packaging and in the materials in the box and I couldn't find the distinction. With it being an external drive and transferring at the speed of USB 3... In not sure that will matter a whole lot unless you planned on cracking it open and installing the drives to your PC. I'm sure this can be found out on WD's website. My guess is its 5,400 due to the cost of the device being so low. As soon as I got the device I copied almost a terabyte of my baby pictures to it and it didn't seem slow an it wouldn't be often if move that quantity of data until I replace it.

Advantages you have a lot of space, cons none that I know of, the external drive does not change anything

Google around a little bit on this. I have a "SanDisk Cruzer Micro 16 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive" (this exact model) and it DOES NOT work properly with Windows 7. It is only properly recognized when I boot the computer with the drive in the usb port which seriously reduces the usefulness of the device.

Probably looking at different model...if you think about an Amazon product page having various components such as reviews, pricing, photos, etc., Amazon tends to share customer reviews and photos and things of that nature among certain products of the same family. So this particular USB stick is similar enough where it can safely share reviews and ratings and whatnot among its 4gb, 8gb, 16gb, and 32gb models (if all four exist..may just be 8, 16, 32, I don't know). Basically, on one of those product pages there should be a pulldown somewhere that allows you to select the capacity. And, in fact, there is! One of those Cruzer thumbdrives allows you to select from 4gb up to 128gb..Click the 8gb one, that one worked for me.

I am not sure and this is difficult to test. There are plastic shields that cover each end of the drive and in order to connect one, you have to slide it back and it covers the other, so it would be difficult to connect both ends. You would be better off with a micro USB to USB cable that costs $2.00.

SDHC CARD (at least that's what is written on the little thing) Hope that helps. I don't think the amount of storage makes any difference.

Sorry, Serge, I don't know the difference. I liked the Canvio I had because of size. It dropped dead the first time I connected to USB 3.0. Amazon did give me a full refund....Great Company!!!

the main difference is that one has a hard drive and one has flash storage the 2833 is the faster one of the 2 but most people might not notice the difference

The thumb drive is an adapter for USB port for the microSD card. The thumb stick is not a memory drive, just an adaptor so you can use the microSD card on a regular computer or anything with a USB port
