To say it straight away: My concern was the product fully dissipate and so offers the SanDisk Cruzer Micro lot for his money.
In addition to, impressive for USB storage this price range average write speed of 10.1 MB / s and a read speed of 22.9 MB / s (source: h2testw 1.4, HD Tune Pro 3:50, ZD WinBench 99 Update 1.1) provides the Memory Stick In addition, 7654 MB memory. Of course, was part of the manufacturer, as with any other media also tricked when converting the amount of data, which is why the specified 8 GB of storage can be achieved only in theory, in practice, however, never be achieved.
The appearance of the Cruzer Micro is, in my opinion, noble. The stick, which, completely made of metal except for the connecting opposite end to which I return equal (On the back is attached a label that allows a label) is covered with a (removable) rubbery outer layer including the corresponding cap. The closure works perfectly so far and also the shell that does the good overall impression of the product is no harm, functionally okay, were it not for the following error: The gumming wear out. After I had about 50 times removed and postponed again, she had practically no more resistance and slipped on the metal housing back and forth. This is not so bad, because the panel is fixed at plugged cap, this is, however, staked out, so the shell stays in place but noticeably.
We come to the back of the sticks. This is the only piece not made of metal but of plastic, of course, including carrying strap (see picture). Here in the usual USB memory lamp is installed, which illuminated the whole end of the stick and the user informed as to whether the device is recognized by the system and data written to it or read about it. Many of my Vorrezensenten describe this light that is orange and when accessing flashes slowly, disturbing. This opinion I can not agree. I feel the gentle pulsing extremely pleasant and can detect any disturbing factor in it.
For those reading lazy among us is so collectively to say:
(+) Good read / write speed in this price range
(+) Only slight memory loss
(+) Good appearance
(+) Small size
(+) Low Price
(-) Fast wearing out of the envelope
My conclusion: Because of its great strengths in, important for USB sticks areas such as low latency and very little memory loss, as well as its very reasonable price makes the Sandisk Cruzer Micro flash memory USB 2.0 its only weakness, namely to shifting outer shell, more than off , I personally use it since early February and have been able to detect any errors. To all who are looking for a USB flash drive without great gadgets, the strikes despite a low price due to its high reading and writing speed, I can put the described product only warmly recommend! Many of the arguments that make up a charge in storage devices, such as the U3 technology, you can, in similar form, also in vain to get (eg. Portable Software). With this in mind, it must be noted that the value for money of the Sandisk Cruzer Micro, in my opinion, is almost unbeatable ...!
