I am looking for a USB 3.0 ( should support 2.0 too ) 32GB USB pen drive for home use. Mainly for transferring high quality video files 720p/1080p ranging from 1 GB to 8.5 GB from PC to TV ( sometimes PC to the laptop as well). I would like it from a popular brand and something that would last.

I found one from Sandisk ( ₹ 509 ) and was about to order, but in specifications it says supported OS = Mac, nothing else. I got confused here. I use Windows 10 and Ubuntu. TV is Android. I will skip the trouble for you and would look forward to your suggestions. Thanks.

PS : Flipkart and Amazon only, please.

If you don't want OTG, then I would recommend *www.amazon.in/dp/B00KYK2AKO/ref=twister_B07JBBYZJM?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It's a good build Pen drive.

Although I would also suggest to go for 64 GB version, since not much price difference. (Rs 626 vs Rs 829 as of this posting).

btw I don't think any pen drive would be limited to just one OS , like mac

Yes. But we never know. The kind of new things that come out every day. I wanted to be sure.

I don't think any pen drive would be limited to just one OS ,

It has some password protection .exe file. Something like a locker which will work only on a particular OS. The default file system says MS DOS. I am yet to try format into NTFS or use it as a bootable disc.
