On sale, this is a great deal.Using Ubuntu Linux 11.04's Disk Utility benchmarking application, it tests at:22.2 MB/s minimum read39.3 MB/s maximum read38.6 MB/s average read38.6 MB/s = 308.8 Mbps - in practical terms, you can't get all that much faster over USB2 despite USB2's 480 Mbps speed rating. Of course this is a synthetic benchmark.The drive arrived in a perfect working state despite the box being heavily damaged by the courier. It's one of those nice retractable plug designs, saving space and not requiring a cap.There are few other bells and whistles, but it's a reasonably fast, durable flash drive especially for the price.

Cette clef de mémoire est une bonne affaire lorsqu'en solde. Le mécanisme pour escamoter le connecteur USB fonctionne très bien et fait en sorte que pas de capuchon peut être perdu. Voici le résultat de tests de transfert d'un fichier de 1 GB sur cette barette de mémoire: écriture 8 MB/sec, lecture 17.5 MB/sec.
