Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I tested the 128 GB version. This is the second version of my comment, the first was in a negative way. Initially, I checked the flash drive on a working computer (hereinafter referred to as Win7_H67): Win 7, 16 RAM, SSD, i5, H67 chipset. The results were disappointing. Wrote a review. I came home, repeated the tests on my home computer (hereinafter referred to as Win10_H81): Win10, 16 RAM, SSD, i5, H81 chipset. The tests were encouraging. I am correcting my review! Synthetic tests: CrystalDiskMark 5.2.0. I give data only for Q=1. For Q=32 everything is the same (+/- 3%). Sequential Read | Sequential Write | Random Read 4KiB | Random Write 4KiB. Comp Win7_H67 (exFAT): 152 MB/s | 37.3MB/s | 7.3 MB/s [1777 IOPS] | 2.1 MB/s [501 IOPS] The results of the last records are low (~ 37 Mb / s). For NTFS, the result of the last. records will be even lower (~21 Mb/s). Comp Win10_H81 (exFAT): 196 MB/s | 129MB/s | 6.1 MB/s [1492 IOPS] | 1.9 MB/s [461 IOPS]. Read / write speeds reach up to 196 and 129 Mb / s, respectively! Excellent result, close to the declared 200/150! After filling the flash drive at 50%, the speed of the last. the record has become lower (110 vs. 129), but also good! Tests on real data (1 GB = 1000 MB = 1000000 KB = 1000000000 bytes). We have: 1. (4gb_movie): movie 3.99 GB 2. (10_movies): 10 movies per 24.4 GB 3. (photos): 1890 photos per 4.29 GB (average size - 2.27 MB) 4. (files): 7720 files per 33.0 GB (average size - 4.27 MB) Comp Win7_H67 (read | write): (4gb_movie): 148 Mbps | 35 Mbps (10_movies): 142 Mbps | 34 Mbps (photos): 81 Mbps | 17 Mbps (files): 77 Mbps | 24 Mbps The maximum result is 148/35 Mb/s. More modern computer Win10_H81 (read | write): (4gb_movie): 190 Mbps | 93 Mbps (10_movies): 183 Mbps | 92 Mbps (photos): 130 Mbps | 52 Mbps (files): 154 Mbps | 60 Mbps The maximum result is 190/93 Mb/s! Bottom line: an excellent flash drive, with excellent read and write speeds, and a good response! But you need to keep in mind that depending on the version of the OS and / or the USB 3 controller, the speeds may differ greatly from the declared / expected ones. Thank you for your attention!

Pros
  • Excellent sequential read and write speeds (up to real 190 and 93 MB/s, see comment). Good read and write speed for small files (4 KiB each), which indicates a fast response (7 Mb / s and 2 Mb / s). Does not slow down the speed with a large amount of written / read data. The speed depends only on the size of the files. Small ones are recorded more slowly (as they should be). The opening/closing mechanism is tactile. How reliable it is - we'll see how it goes.
Cons
  • On some systems, the write speed is significantly slower than expected. True on fairly old systems. More details in the comment.
