The results are quite interesting. You'll see that this SD card is actually faster than most hard drives. Random read 4k is at 1542 IOPS (a fast disk drive will yield 150-200 IOPS). Random Read is nearly the same on 4k, both great numbers for an inexpensive SD card. The card is rated at UHS-1 U3 and should work well for 4k recording.

Very happy with the product, will purchase more.

Good price and no glitches -- excellent product.
June 2, 2016 edit: I've now used this card for a month, extensively shooting 4K video. There has not been one glitch with this card -- excellent performance at a great price.
May 19, 2017 edit: The record lock slider on this SD card fell out around May 1, 2017. Granted, I use my camera a lot and have this SD card in and out often. Still, once the record lock slider fell out, I could no longer shoot stills or videos... I could only read what was already on the SD card. I contacted PNY's customer service, which said to provide proof of purchase (my Amazon invoice) and to send it back. I just received a replacement SD card, which is the second photo below. I was disappointed that the first SD card failed, but PNY came through promptly with a replacement -- good for PNY!

I like the drive. The speed is acceptable for everyday use while it may not exactly be the 90MB/s as they claim, and their prices are much better than their competitors'.
I haven't had any hiccups using their older 128GB drive for taking pictures on my Nikon compact camera and storing my iTunes library, so I hope this will last me a few years- at least until 512GB becomes obsolete or 2TB becomes mainstream!
I'll post the CrystalDiskMark result of the 512GB version; this was tested on a CLEVO W150ER with i7-3630QM mobile processor, 16GB RAM.

4K is very ram intensive and that's why I wanted a large card. If you're buying it for 4 K video it really works well and is a great price too. Buy it.
