Review on Transcend JetFlash Flash Drive TS16GJF790K by Stanislaw Bieroza ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I should have looked for better, I spent my money on a mediocre product.

After reading some reviews, I learned that this flash drive has a write speed that is faster than the 45 MB that is advertised. While everything else about the drive is exactly as advertised, the read speed is actually faster than advertised. The recording of the video clip has some undulations, which suggests that a high-speed buffer was used here, similar to what is found in affordable SSD drives. The recording of this flash drive as well as an older Verbatim 3.0 32 GB is shown in the screenshot below. The recording speed of the Verbatim is approximately 80 MB and is even; however, it writes little files at a considerably slower rate than the Transcend.

Pros
  • The speed is bearable for 128 GB, considering that it could be lot slower. Excellent writing speed for files less than 10 megabytes.
Cons
  • Fragile case
