256GB USB 3.1 Type-A Flash Drive

The Samsung BAR Plus MUF-256BE3/AM provides 256GB of portable storage in a compact metal chassis. It connects via a standard USB Type-A plug and delivers read speeds up to 400MB/s. The drive is built for users who need reliable, high-speed file transfers between laptops, desktops and compatible devices.

Upgrade from slower USB 2.0 or 3.0 drives

Moving from a USB 2.0 stick cuts transfer time dramatically, especially with large media files. The jump is worth it when you regularly shift multi-gigabyte videos, photo libraries or project folders and want the 400MB/s read ceiling. Write speeds reach 100MB/s, so the benefit shows most on read-heavy workflows.

Fits any USB-A port, adds rugged protection

The drive works with USB 3.1 Gen 1, 3.0 and 2.0 hosts without extra drivers. Its metal casing resists water, shock, magnet, temperature and X-ray exposure, while an integrated key ring prevents loss. The small 0.50 x 0.60 x 1.60 inch form leaves adjacent ports free and adds only 0.04 oz to a keychain or bag.

Questions about this item

What size USB-A port does the 1.60" x 0.60" x 0.50" drive require?

It fits a standard USB Type-A port and works with USB 3.1 Gen 1, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 hosts.

How do I start using the drive, and what step do people often miss?

Plug the metal Type-A connector into the port; the missing step is waiting for the OS to finish mounting before transferring files.

When should I replace the drive given its 400MB/s read and 100MB/s write ratings?

Replace it if speeds drop well below those figures, files become unreadable, or the metal casing shows physical damage.
