I checked amazon and do not see any reviews stating it is getting very hot for the ultra Dual drive USB 3.0.
sandisk does make another ultra fit usb drive (super small form factor) which has some reviews that it gets hot however sandisk support has responded to those reviews with the following statement
“SanDisk drives are tested to comply to the safety standards in “Safety of Information Technology Equipment, IEC 60950-1”, where the ambient temperature range is between 0°C and 35°C. SanDisk Ultra Fit can run a little warmer than other similar drives due to its high performance and compact form factor, which can limit the immediate dissipation of heat from the circuitry.”
Since these are 2 completely different products I would suggest you contact sandisk support and see about getting a warranty replacement. I would not use the drive any longer.
