The results reflect basically contradict my experience in the daily use of the stick. Because when using portable apps like Firefox or Thunderbird I have to find quite blatant dropouts, which are probably due to the partial but low write rate. As a last resort and to use their own apps on other people's computers, such as in the university, which is acceptable, however ... there you go more to functionality as to performance, I think.
As data storage Cruzer 16GB is top notch! I have often this document or films and even with HD material (including 1080p) so far I could not notice any stuttering. Particularly in view of the very low price (26 for 16GB) of Stick's almost ideal.
The processing is appropriate. Ie: in direct comparison to its predecessor significantly higher quality material appearance. Minimal movements of the USB connectors in extended state are possible, but do not bother me further. Also, the slide mechanism looks quite solid and well made.
Conclusion: weaknesses in the write rate, the one just in Firefox (keyword "Cache"), however, can tolerate with some settings. Who would more clearly must also put additional expenditure the table. Optimal as a data storage!
4 stars, strong buy recommendation!
