I really appreciate the VERY thorough and detailed test results! Kudos, Bravo!

Suggestion: Do the same for external USB 2.0 hard disks – Seagate, WD, etc. My real-world tests copying files from my Dell T3400 Win7 2.66 GHz quad-core 4 GB RAM system to Seagate 1 TB 7200 RPM rarely exceed 20 MB/sec. I’m also curious about the effect of cables on transfer speed.

thanks again,

Steve

[...] are at the end of this article. There can be wide variations in speed between drives (e.g. USB Flash Drive Comparison – 21 Tested and Compared, which does not include any of the drives listed here but is informative), so check speed ratings [...]

Kristofer:

Thanks for your info; and I have one question.

I realize your testing cover these items but I’m wondering if you might have a preference between the Patriot 32GB XT and the 32GB Sandisk Cruzer. Just generally speaking which one would overall best fit your flashdrive demands.

Your read/write/copy benchmarks seem to use one large file. However, what about a copy of large numbers of small files. I have a flash drive where this process is just KILLING me, let other copies to the drive with fewer small files are much less bothersome. I just want to understand this. Frankly, I wonder why any of this is so. Why aren’t flash drives commodified by now? Shouldn’t one be pretty much the same as the other? Why all the variation?

Not that I knock bench testing of the sort, more people in just everyday life should step up to the plate and bat. Perhaps the devices like Sony performed slower due to the whole auto compression tool system which would really take away brownie points. Where as my 2 GB Sony Micro Vault, I formatted and did away with that auto compression tool, I have my own reasons, which transfers quicker than a couple random USB generic flash drives I’ve gotten which haven’t lasted nearly as long as my Sony drive.

I agree with Manuel, those things are freaking unbreakable. The Cruzer too, i had one and i still haven’t broken it. And i’ve tried. Hard.

I don’t see why the Sony MicroVault scored so badly… Maybe try again with a Turbo / Excellence version? I’ve got one of them, and i reckon it’s pretty good.

DO IT AGAIN, DO IT AGAIN!

And less graphs next time, they all show the same thing…
