Kingston DataTraveler 101 G3 8GB Capless USB Flash Drive WHITE/YELLOW

Comment:
I bought this 8GB DataTraveler and a TDK TRANS-IT 8GB today. I only wanted one but I couldn't choose between them because neither had read/write specs. When I got home I benchmarked both to find out which I'll use and which will collect dust.The Kingston 8GB drive reads at avg 11MB/seconds and writes at avg 5MB/second (4.5 - 6.3MB/sec)The TDK TRANS-IT 8GB read at 21-23MB/second and wrote at avg 5MB/second. If you don't plan on moving a lot of data in a rush then this device is a great deal. As a readyboost drive it more than meets the min specs. If you use your usb thumb drives a lot to move a lot of data then look for a faster one, there are a lot out there.
