Samsung Type-C USB Flash Drive 512 GB — 400 MB/s read, 110 MB/s write over USB-C only
512 GB400 / 110 MB/sUSB-C only3.4 g
The MUF-512DA/APC is Samsung’s Type-C™ USB Flash Drive at 512 GB in Mystic Blue. Samsung rates it at 400 MB/s sequential read and 110 MB/s write at this capacity, over a single USB Type-C connector. This is the USB-C drive in Samsung’s range — a single Type-C connector, with no USB-A end. Samsung’s official name for it is simply the “Type-C USB Flash Drive”: there is no BAR, FIT or Plus in it, whatever a retailer listing may call it. Samsung’s colour name for this one is Mystic Blue; the identical drive in Grey is sold as MUF-512DA4/APC. It measures 33.7 × 15.9 × 6.4 mm and weighs about 3.4 g.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Three notes on the published figures, because all three are misread regularly.
1. The write speed. Samsung’s regional product pages quote read speed only and say write is “lower than read speed”. The 110 MB/s figure comes from Samsung’s own launch announcement for the 512 GB drives, which states 400 MB/s read and 110 MB/s write across the BAR Plus, FIT Plus and Type-C lines. We publish it and tell you where it comes from.
2. The temperature. Samsung’s pages show −25 to 85 °C, but that is the temperature-proof survival claim, not an operating range. The actual operating range is 0 to 60 °C. Listings that print −25 to 85 as the operating spec have confused the two.
3. USB 3.1 versus 3.2 Gen 1. Samsung’s own page URLs still say “usb-3-1” while the specification table says USB 3.2 Gen 1. These are the same 5 Gbps standard under two names — the USB-IF renamed it. Neither label is wrong; we use the current one.

Key Features
USB-C only — know this before you order
There is a single Type-C connector and no USB-A end. If you need to plug into an older laptop, a TV or a car stereo, this is the wrong drive and the BAR Plus or FIT Plus is what you want. Listings describing it as dual-connector are simply wrong.
400 MB/s read, 110 MB/s write
Identical to the metal BAR Plus at this capacity. Samsung does not penalise the USB-C version; you are choosing a connector, not a performance tier. The write figure comes from Samsung’s own 512 GB launch release, since the product pages omit it.
Works directly with an Android phone
A USB-C drive plugs straight into a modern Android phone or tablet, which is the practical reason most people buy one — moving 4K video off a phone without a cable, a cloud account or a card reader. At 512 GB it will take a lot of it.
512 GB is capacity, not extra speed
Samsung publishes the same 400 / 110 MB/s at 256 GB and 512 GB. The step up from 128 GB is where write speed nearly doubles; beyond 256 GB you are buying room, not pace.
Five-proof, on Samsung’s own tests
Water to 1 m for 72 hours in saltwater, shock to 1,500 G, magnetism to 15,000 gauss, airport X-ray to 100 mGy, and a temperature survival claim from −25 to 85 °C. No external standard is cited for any of them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
At 512 GB Samsung’s three flash drive lines are the same drive inside, so the only question worth asking is which port you will actually plug it into. This one commits entirely to USB-C, which is right if your laptop and phone are both modern and wrong the moment you need to put files on a TV, a car stereo or an older office PC. There is no adapter in the box and Samsung does not publish box contents at all, so assume you get the drive and nothing else. One thing that trips people up on this line specifically: Samsung sells the same 512 GB drive under two part numbers that differ only by colour — MUF-512DA in blue and MUF-512DA4 in grey. Same drive, same speed, same warranty; buy on whichever is cheaper or whichever colour you prefer.

Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
Your laptop, tablet or phone has USB-C ports and you want a large, fast drive that plugs in directly, with no adapter.
Skip it if
You need to use the drive with a TV, car stereo, console or older PC — there is no USB-A connector on it at all.
Also consider
The grey (MUF-512DA4/APC) version of the identical drive, BAR Plus in metal with USB-A and a keyring loop, or FIT Plus as a tiny USB-A stub.
