Pros: -Inexpensive when on sale-Par performance Comment:
It works as intended; I used it for Memtest without any problems. I'd advise getting it on sale as you could get a faster drive at the non-sale pricing. This review was modfied by poster @ 04-05-13 07:39 PM |

Cons: Write speed is really slow for a USB 3.0
Pros: Good value when on sale Comment:
Guess this product is marketed toward students who transfers only small files. The drive The write speed is 9-10mb, slow to ~4mb as the drive getting full. Read is around ~19mb--speed is similar to a UBS 2.0 drive. The cap feel loose when snap to the back of the drive.The drive sometime go on sale for $4.99 to reflect the drive performance. |

Cons: Write speeds are slow
Pros: USB 3.0, cheap Comment:
At $5 these were the right price to add two more flash drives to the collection. I posted detailed benchmarks in the forum. Real life sustained write speed is about 5 MB/s and read speeds are about 50 MB/s using USB 3.0. I'm going to make a bootable Linux drive and see how it performs. |

Cons: Slow write speeds.
Pros: Inexpensive. Good read speeds. Good package with dust cap. Comment:
Good drive for the price. Tested read speed was 27 MB/s. Write was 5 MB/s. Well suited for use as a boot drive for O/S installs and system recovery utilities. Took off one star due to slow writes but it is still a very good value at the price. |

Cons: -not so fast
Pros: works as well as any cheap usb stick Comment:
Max read was 40MB/s and max write was 11MB/sI expected crap because I paid a low price so nothing to complain about. Just don't buy it for the USB 3.0 speeds. Consider the drive class 10, at best. |

Pros: CheapFastEfficient Comment:
There is not much to say. Works great and USB 3.0 is fast! I bought a few of them and i put Windows 7, Windows 8 and Ubuntu 12.04. It is very fast installing a OS from a bootable USB 3.0 key. I might buy some more and see if they are good for ready boost. |

This USB is a must-buy, its a good deal compared to other usbs on the market. Useful for school, work, everything ! |
I picked a few of these up for various purposes when they were on sale for $5/each. They perform like a $5 USB, so there isn't much negative that can be said.The read/write speeds are a little on the low side, but I've been using them to boot my ESXI hosts for months without any issues.All in all, I would purchase these again if they were to go on sale and I needed some inexpensive USB keys.
