MediaRange MR1903 — 256 GB High Performance USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive
300 MB/s read, 200 MB/s writeAluminium housing256 GB capacityPre-formatted exFAT
The MediaRange MR1903 is a 256 GB USB Type-A flash drive from MediaRange’s High Performance line, rated at 300 MB/s read and 200 MB/s write — figures MediaRange publishes for this exact article rather than for the family. The housing is aluminium with a separate protective cap, it weighs about 15 g, and it arrives pre-formatted as exFAT so Windows and macOS both read and write it without a reformat.
Compatibility — check before buying:
The 256 GB MR1903 is faster than the 512 GB MR1904 in the same line. MediaRange publishes 300 MB/s read and 200 MB/s write for this article and 250/160 for the 512 GB — those are its own per-article figures, so if you were planning to buy up for speed, do not. Buy the 512 GB only if you need the space. Two other things worth checking before you order: this drive has a separate cap, not a slider, so it is a cap you can lose; and MediaRange rates it for 0 to 45 °C operation, which is a narrower range than most drives and worth knowing if it will sit in a car or an unconditioned store room in a Cyprus summer. This is a USB Type-A drive and will not fit a USB-C-only laptop or phone without an adapter. There is no encryption and no bundled software.
Best For
✓ Moving photo and video files at speed
✓ Fast backups of a working folder
✓ Carrying a project between machines
✓ Loading media onto a TV or car system
✓ Windows and macOS, no reformat needed
✓ An aluminium drive that is genuinely quick
Key Features
300 MB/s read, 200 MB/s write — per article
MediaRange publishes a separate speed for every article number in this range rather than one figure for the family. That means these numbers describe this 256 GB drive specifically, which is rarer than it should be in flash drives.
Aluminium, about 15 g
A metal body roughly 59 x 12 x 7 mm with a protective cap. Metal also helps shed the heat a drive builds up during a long transfer at this speed.
exFAT out of the box
No reformat needed to use it on both Windows and macOS. If you need FAT32 for an older TV or car stereo you can reformat, but the default covers the common case.
A real write figure
The 200 MB/s write is the number that decides how long a copy onto the drive takes. Many drives at this capacity publish only a read speed, or write at a fifth of what they read.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
The MR1903 is the value pick of this group and the reason is the write speed. 200 MB/s onto the drive, published per article rather than as a family claim, puts it ahead of drives costing more — the Kingston Kyson writes at 60 at a larger capacity, and the PNY Attaché at 20. The aluminium body and exFAT pre-format are small things that save you a step. Two caveats we would rather you heard from us. It has a separate cap, and caps get lost; if that is how you have killed drives before, the capless Transcend JetFlash 790 or Kingston Kyson are the alternatives. And MediaRange publishes no warranty term at all, only a promise to replace defective units — which is why our own one-year cover is the number that actually matters on this particular product.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You want genuinely fast transfers in both directions — 300 MB/s read and 200 MB/s write — from a 256 GB aluminium drive at a sensible price.
Skip it if
You keep losing caps, since this one is separate rather than a slider, or the drive will live somewhere hot, given the 0 to 45 °C rating.
Also consider
The 512 GB MR1904 if you need the space and can accept 250/160, or a capless Kingston DataTraveler Kyson if losing caps is your problem.
