Sandisk is going small – very small – with its newest flash drive.

The Extreme Fit is a tiny USB-C device that comes in five storage sizes, from 64GB to 1TB, at a cost of about $15 to $110 based on current sale prices on the company's website. That's a lot of storage without having to go full-on external hard drive.

Except for the 64GB version, Sandisk says the device has read speeds of 400MB/s. That includes the models in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB sizes. Because of its small size (it looks like a tiny television set plugged into the USB port), the Extreme Fit can be kept plugged in to a laptop on the go, the company says. It uses USB 3.2 Gen 1 technology.

Included with the flash drive is Sandisk's Memory Zone software for Windows and Mac, which offers features including automatic backups and file management on a computer. The Memory Zone app is also available for iOS and Android.

Sandisk says the flash drive also comes with a five-year warranty.
