Construction and protection of the contacts are good. I need to order from time to time on a pretty built-in USB hub, and our machines because the format is beneficial. Unfortunately, the read / write rate seems to vary greatly from stick to stick. Mine was rather slow. Writing with just 8Mb / s and read with good 16Mb / s was not quite what I expected. Previously drawn to rate tests showed significantly better values. But you only find today hardly precise figures on the manufacturer side ... why ;-) A disadvantage of the format is, however, that I have unfortunately lost the little ones somewhere though he was hooked. Too bad. Because final I could with the price / performance ratio live if you take aside the fact that when you plug he reported once a file system errors in the short time.
+ Robust + Well-protected contacts + Nice and small
- Quite a large spread of velocities, one must probably lucky - Filesystem errors, only one occurred because I had lost him, but something occurs Experience shows that more often
Because he still has some advantages and I deplore any loss of data had come the stick so nopch on 3 out of 5.
