I was looking for a new USB flash drive with 16GB capacity and since my motherboard USB3.0
is suitable, it should be possible also a USB3.0 Stick. But of course only if the price / performance ratio.
And in this drive it is true absolutely! For the competitive price of 25 you get here a USB3.0 basement, which definitely has no equal in this price range.
Write and read rates beyond the 100 MB / s provides the drive spaces with large files.
Here were up to 145MB / s when copying a large 3GB Images possible and write when reading and when!
With a 1GB large, mostly with Word files less than 1MB filled folder that memory creates dwarf nevertheless still acceptable 10MB / s when copying to the stick.
When writing to the hard drive, more than 75MB / s measurable.
The stick was also tested on a USB2.0 port, however here only synthetic benchmarks were performed, results see screenshots.
Sure, you get 16GB USB3.0 sticks for a little more than half the price, but who is looking for a stick, looking not only good read but also really convincing cry consulting, comes to this representative is certainly not over. For this you will also like an extra charge of 10 into account, especially when comparable representative cost with a similar performance partly significantly more.
A clear recommendation for this stick!
Screenshots of the test results, I have uploaded and are available at the product photos. If desired, I test the stick also like to work with other software.
A few more details to the test system:
Windows 7 Professional 64bit incl. All updates
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition @ 3.6 Ghz per core
Gigabyte GA-870A-UD3 (USB3.0 controller from NEC)

Has been tested with CrystalDiskMark 3.01b and the copying feature of Windows 7 with reference to an approximately 3GB large images and a 1GB large, with small files filled folder.
