The hassle of using Windows and Mac laptop. Going from USB Type A to USB Type C. Of course there is no missing out the dongle that you need to buy to be able to copy your files to the Mac from Type A USB drive, dang!
As I want to easily copy files from my Windows laptop to my Macbook 12-inch laptop, I decided to look for a flash drive that has both Type A and C port. As a regular customer of Lazada, where else should I start looking?
So, I login to my laptop search of Sandisk drive which support both type of ports. Luckily, I found one which I think is a good one as it hide the USB connector (no metal tip protruding in both ends of the drive). Although, I would love to have the 64GB but it is not available which forces me to buy the 32GB version. I think the price is fair for this capacity. It is way cheaper than buying from physical store in malls. I paid 699 pesos as the price does not include the shipping fee.
Delivery is a breeze. It took just 3 days to receive the product. I am kind of excited to use this USB stick as it will help me get rid of the dongle ('the dongle'). I believe it is a very important companion for software engineer like me. Especially that I am using different type of laptops.
Here are may 'not expert' writeup for this drive.

699 pesos - gone are the free shipping from Lazada.
The familiar blue plastic where the product was secured during delivery. I used scissor to cut it clean as I re-use it for something else.
The USB drive is secured in a bubble wrap. The seller shows a great care not to damage the product during shipment. So, got mine pristine.
The package contains a leaflet with warning not to buy from unauthorized store. This product comes from Lazada authorized store. Hopefully, I got the authentic one. Cross my fingers.
Hiding the Type A and Type C connector.
The USB Type A connector for laptop with no Type C port.
Of course, the USB Type C connector. Now I can use this drive to copy file to and from my Macbook.
Write speed is quite good. Read is around 150MB/s which make transfer of file from this drive to destination folder a breeze. I am satisfied of the transfer speed vs my very old Sony 8GB drive.
