Pros: Looks cool. Actually has the amount of storage that it says. Its a real working flash drive
Cons: I buy a lot of 128gb flash drives for work, usually buy them ten at a time. I bought one of these to give it a test. It cannot hold a constant speed when transferring big files. This is an issue with usb3 caching. Most Usb 3 flash drives have this problem - they are just designed badly. Some drives do not have this problem and manage to maintain a constant transfer speed. I saw that Teamgroup updated their older C186 drive, so I wanted to see if this new C188 drive has the same issue. I am sad to report, yes it does. The speed keeps dropping to 0 after a few seconds of transferring at 60 MB/s. I cannot recommend the C188 or the C186 Drives from team group as they cannot transfer large files quickly. 80GB will take about 1.5 hours to transfer with this drive. Find a better drive and the same transfer will take 20 minutes. I recommend the C175 as it can hold a constant speed and it is pretty cheap as well.
Overall Review: Not good for large files. (if you need to transfer more than 10gb at a time) good cheap flash drive for small files. Has USB3 Cache issue causing it to drop to 0MB/s every few seconds. top Write Speed I recorded is 80MB/S I recommend the C175 instead as it can hold a constant speed and it is pretty cheap as well.
