Most Favorable Review

Good

ADATA 8GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) PD7 2.0 8G
ADATA 8GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) PD7 2.0 8G

Pros: 31MG/sec read all way to 100% tested real 200X

Cons: only 200X read. compare with others I have 28MB/Sec the speed is not worth the price difference. But the others do not marked as any speed. They just say 8GB. You do not know until you buy it. Take chances.

Most Critical Review

slow write

SanDisk 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 128bit AES Encryption SDCZ45-008G-A11
SanDisk 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 128bit AES Encryption SDCZ45-008G-A11

Pros: fast read 15MB/s. Good looking.

Cons: slow write 4MB/s. The 10MB/s write only in burst mode. I never get it in normal use. few test tool can do burst mode test. The hole for key ring is too easy break. poor engineer design.

Overall Review: The cruzer blade also has same problem. the write speed should be normal Seq write. iphone design is not just good looking. I need good engineer design first.

SYBA USB 3.0 PCI-e Card with HDD Power Connector (3 + 1 Ports) Model SD-PEX20080
SYBA USB 3.0 PCI-e Card with HDD Power Connector (3 + 1 Ports) Model SD-PEX20080

Pros: none

Cons: It is totally fail. I spend more than 20 hours to make it work and down load all driver they suggested. It read 43.5MB/s and write 39.5MB/s at 45MB/s card but the most time it only read at 22MB/s write at 19MB/s. The memory card and reader always connected and system not change any thing. It change the speed on system boot. I ask full refund with return postage.

Overall Review: The USB3_monitor always running. The Firmware is not in EPROM. It is a installed software. That is not normal device working mode. I guess the board design has problem they try use software to fix it.
