Review on Verbatim Premium Memory UHS I Class by Tom Lantz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

16GB is an excellent product; 32GB version is not fast enough for ReadyBoost

Fit, works fine. Formatted in NTFS, it delivers 15.6 MB/s reading and 8.28 MB/s writing, which is Class 6. I've tested it and use it for Readyboost in a 5-in-1 card reader in my Acer Windows 7 laptop. I'm glad I bought Verbatim and I'm glad I bought through Revain. JimUpdate February 29, 2012: The price of the 32GB version has gone down so I just grabbed one too. The sequential speeds are again tested very quickly and easily reach Class 6: the FATT test for the entire card completed without errors. Write Speed: 8.38MB/s Read Speed: 17.7MB/s NTFS Write Speed: 8.02 MB/s Read Speed: 16.7 MB/s Unfortunately, none of the three formats on the 32GB card had random access speeds acceptable for ReadyBoost in Windows 7.
