Any USB flash drive will work with USB 2.0. It depends on wich USB you buy. The fastest you can get with USB 2.0 is 480mbps that is the same as 35mb/s~. So try looking for a USB that has a write and read close to that. Getting an USB 3.0 is going to work aswell and can even be held back by the 2.0 port.

But I read some drives not support usb 2.0 option, I think it's 128 gb and larger.

Nonsense USB 2.0 is all about transfer speed. In USB3.0 they have additional connectors which remain unconnected when USB2.0 device is connected to the USB3.0 host (or if USB3.0 device is connected to USB2.0 host). If the electronics doesn’t detect additional data signals, it act according to USB2.0 standard. It just contains more connectors and there is more wires in the cable. But USB only transfers data there are some exeptions like VR for example will only work with 3.0. So there would be no problem.

Sorry for the late reply!
The SanDisk is way better. It has a 90% faster write speed according to amazon.
Calculation,
Write Patriot: 200mb/s
Write SanDisk: 380mb/s

380 divided by 200 equals 1.9
1.9 times 100 equals 190% minus 100% from the 200mb/s
Equals 90%
