Pros: Very, very fast. It ran near the rated speed under certain circumstances. In real use, it's not quite that speed because of the delay between files, etc. It's still one of the fastest drives out there.
Cons: The cap loosens over time and there's no spare. Also, the casing tastes beyond awful so never hold it in your lips temporarily or you'll be tasting it hours.
Overall Review: I had an original red 2.0 edition that lasted over 4 years! These are even more superior chips.
Pros: Your math seems to be a bit off. To obtain 256GB total from 32GB drives would require you to purchase eight 32GB drives, not four. Consequently, it is a much better deal than you have stated.
Cons: None

Pros: love the overall drive. very nice size, like the rubber coating over the cheap plastic ones. i like this one better honestly then the corsair rubber ones. was FAST even with a 2.0 plug. love that the cap can be placed on the rubber hook on the back of it. not as thick as the corsair and its shorter as well.
Cons: first was was REALLY loose inside the rubber. the usb plug and attached curcuit board could move all around inside the rubber. called patriot and they told me to exchange it. formatted size was smaller than the corsair at 29.4 where the corsair is 29.8 probably due to the controller used. cap is not very tight since its a slide on rubber style one i expected it to be tighter.
Overall Review: wish the light was blue instead of red i guess. hope second one is nice and tight which im sure it will be i know its not supposed to be that loose and patriot agreed.
Overall Review: Measured the diff between this 3.0 flash drive and my old 2.0 in the same USB 3.0 port on my laptop.
Writing 3gb of data, this Patriot stick is roughly 3x faster than the 2.0 drive. That may not sound like much, but it matter a lot when you're talking about 1 minute vs. 3 minutes.
Overall Review: I bought this USB drive because the one I had previously was a very early USB3.0 and I knew there were bigger and better ones out there. This one is amazing by comparison! I put at least 1 file of over 800MB on it regularly and with the old drive that would take like 30 seconds but with this drive that file is on the drive in less than 3 seconds! Really the only downside I have with the stick itself is that it is a lot wider than the old USB drives I own otherwise. Plugging them in next to each other horizontally is impossible but also a small price to pay for literally everything else this drive has to offer!
Pros: Carry this in my pocket for important MP3 files over 27GB of MP3 plus family addresses copies of tax papers DD214 and other important documents I can't afford to lose, this works great for my needs along with 64GB USB drive that I also carry in my pocket.
