There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It came formatted as MS DOS, write speed for big files ~140 MB/sec, read - 330 MB/sec.
Also tested on Windows computer - same speed.
Blackmagic disk test on Macbook: 220 MB/sec write, 330 MB/sec read.
I eventually reformatted it into ExFAT, because some of my files are more than 4 GB. Works very well.
Attention: do NOT measure speed on USB2 connectors - it will be slow.
Attention: be careful about formatting fast flash drives on a Mac using Mac Disk Utility.
Depending on the version of your OS X it may make your flash drive much slower, and may make it unreadable on Windows computers.
This is not a problem with this drive, but a generic problem between Macs and Windows - google for "How to Remove an EFI System Partition or GPT Protective Partition". I suspect that some reviewers didn't know about these types of issues when complaining about the speed of the drive. But there is nothing wrong with the drive - as long as you know how to use it.
If you need to reformat it to ExFAT or NTFS - better use Windows computer.
Or on Mac use the old version of Disk Utility (which comes with Yosemite) in Debug mode to show all hidden partitions.
And make sure that you don't create a EFI partition.
Feels like a solid (heavy) little drive. I own multiple PNY 2.0 drives, and have never had an issue with them. I went with PNY, because they haven't let me down yet. A Lexar 3.0 drive on the other hand, would write files that when transferred, were corrupted. It's the only drive I've ever seen do that.
Capacity is exactly what I was expecting. A true genuine 1TB.
Finally! A 3.0 drive that actually WRITES at 3.0 speeds!!!
Only con I can think of, is the price dropped $15 shortly after purchase.
Now (few hours after review), I'm noticing throttling and heat on another PC. Ambient temp is higher, but I'm leaning toward a port issue.
For the first few months, the drive performed as expected. I was able to copy files quickly and smoothly. However, after about three months of use, I noticed that the speed of the drive started to deteriorate. It dropped to around 200 mb/s read and write, which is still decent but not what I had paid for.
This flash drive is very good, but I cannot recommend it be purchased at full price, and don't expect to keep the advertised speeds for long.
On all of these, I wanted it to fit into my wallet (see photo) so I removed the case. I cut it off with a Dremel tool. The case is a nice high quality cast aluminum (not plastic) case, but was too big for my needs. I have no problems with heat whatsoever reading and writing 100s of GB in one go. Do be careful handling a bare unprotected PC board though!

Auf dem Portal SSD-Tester aus Österreich bin ich durch die guten Punkte im Score-Vergleich auf den Stick gestoßen, da liegt er derzeit (19.10.2022) auf Platz 5 u.a. hinter dem TeamGroup Team C212 256GB, Kingston DataTraveler Max 256GB und Corsair Flash Voyager GTX 256GB.
Mir gefällt natürlich die schnelligkeit von dem Stick, angegeben mit Lesegeschwindigkeit von 400 MB/s und einer Schreibgeschwindigkeit 180 MB/s. Auf dem Portal getestet mit einer Schreibgeschwindigkeit 419 MB/s und Lesegeschwindigkeit 290 MB/s. Meiner hat im Auslieferungszustand, also gerade erst erhalten) 450 MB/s und 280 MB/s. Er ist bereits ab Werk mit FAT32 formatiert.
Beim CrystalDiskMark-Test mit 1GB wurde er etwas mehr als Handwarm, also top. Tatsächlich ist die Slider kappe aus massivem Metall, das finde ich ja mal großartig! Wird dann also auch noch gekühlt bzw besser Wärme abgeleitet. Nichts aufgedruckt, sondern gelasert sollte lange halten. Slider funktioniert stramm aber gut, sodass das Stecken nicht behindert wird. LED fehlt, aber was solls...
Lieferung über AgentOrangeShop dauerte 2 Tage und Luftpolsterumschlag mit ülicher Produktverpackung, Gesamtpreis 46,06€. Made in Taiwan! Hoffe meine Fotos und das kleine Video sind nützlich.

Quant aux perfs, je n'avais jamais vu ça auparavant.
Je fais du 300 Mo/s en lecture sous Linux (en ExFAT) à destination d'un SSD NVMe.
En fait comme j'ai 128 Go de mémoire et que Linux mets en cache au fur et à mesure, un fichier de 10 Go est lu entièrement, même avant d'être écrit en totalité.
En l’occurrence la lecture ne m'a pris que 36" pour les 10 Go, plus 1" pour terminer l'écriture sur mon SSD après un sync.
Du jamais vu !
