I have a bunch of old flash drives with different capacities. You are difficult to understand. Currently, most installation and recovery schemes use an 8-16GB hard drive, which is much better than CDs, so I figured I'd need five hard drives to work with Windows, Linux, KIS, Acronis, etc. Good place for the price. I'm a bit nervous after the test. But I have to admit that I'm not a certified tech guru, so my estimates might be a bit shaky. Using FakeFlashTest, the first one I tried (red) gave me an error. Reformatting and subsequent testing, including full testing, showed everything was fine, so I'm hoping it's just a bad USB port on my PC. This is something for future evaluation. Using DiskMark, I tested the speed of all five on a different port (USB 3.0). Some were faster than others, but overall they were consistent. So there may be differences in quality. Unfortunately, I bought several flash drives that failed after a few months. I just hope they remain effective when I need to restore my system. If I'm lucky, check back in a year or so. For $16, now, 4 stars. [Edit 3 days later] I now see that the product link is to a different product (10 from USB 2.0) with a higher price. So I changed my rating to 3. Danger!
