Overview

The SanDisk iXpand Flash Drive Go is a dual-connector flash drive built specifically for iPhone and iPad users who need a quick, offline way to free up device storage. One end features a Lightning connector that plugs directly into compatible iPhones (iPhone 14 and older), while the other end offers a standard USB 3.0 Type-A connector for transferring files to PCs and Macs at speeds up to 130 MB/s. The swivel design keeps both connectors protected when not in use and includes a keyring hole so the drive can travel with your keys or bag.

Paired with the SanDisk Memory Zone app, the iXpand Flash Drive Go can automatically back up your camera roll each time it's connected, making it a set-and-forget solution for managing photos and videos. The app also enables password protection for sensitive files, adding a layer of security whether you're accessing content on your iPhone, a Windows PC, or a Mac. With 128GB of capacity, the drive offers ample room for thousands of photos and hours of video, making it a practical companion for anyone looking to keep their iPhone running smoothly without relying on cloud storage subscriptions.
