Pros: The Largest Memory Stick duo out there

Cons: Slow

Overall Review: Here are the test I did in my laptop the Sony Memory Stick Duo register 7MB write and 9MB/s read Compare to a 10MB/s write and 19MB/s read for a 4GB Corsair Flash Voyager This is definitely on the slow side, and far from the numbers advertised by Sony
