Overall Review: I'm still in shock... this has faster read speeds than some of the spindle drives I use.... and sustained Write speeds are quicker than all my full size USB 2.0 flash drives. At $25 how can you go wrong? Benchmark under Ubuntu Gnome 14.01 (10Mib x 100) BURST READ: 155.3MB/s BURST WRITE: 56.9MB/s AVG. READ: 127.0MB/s AVG. WRITE: 8.9MB/s Real world results, I moved 2.7GB of MP3s (327 songs @ 320kbps) from this flash drive to My OS HDD in under 20 seconds. I also moved a 900MB Ubuntu ISO from my OS HDD to this Flash drive in about 25 seconds... Booting from USB, Ubuntu Gnome (live) is fully booted and ready to use in under 1 minute. This thing screams!
