VALUE FOR PRICE The price is high but at 128GB and USB 3.0 connectivity, it's well worth it. Some people may argue why not just get an external HDD with USB 3.0, but I wanted something ultra portable (fits in pocket). EASE OF USE It's a USB Flash Drive... PERFORMANCE The write speed is a little slower than stated (during my use) but the write speed was blazing at 200MB/s. I was moving files to my friend's Surface and he wasn't expecting it to be that fast. He was probably more impressed with the USB 3.0, but this flash drive performs very well. CAPACITY Some overhead is expected but there's still a ton of storage space. It allows me to transfer files without ever worrying about not having enough space. Some of my friends have to keep a few (3 or more) flash drives, so they have enough storage while I only need to have this one.

I'm replacing all my smaller flash drives with this unit. It works faster, and keeps all my files in one place. I just hope future models stay this simple to use. I used this product while writing my latest novel, QUANTUM ROOTS

After a horrid pickup experience, we got this home and plugged it into an older laptop w/ an express 34mm usb 3.0 card. It installed instantly and worked flawlessly. It came formatted in fat32 but when I checked the formatting options if showed exfat as default so I reformatted in that. I'm using this as a workaround for the slow hdd in my laptop and don't trust ssd's enough to install one as a os drive yet. I've put several disk intensive games on this such as Witcher2, Skyrim, Aliens vs Predator, Crysis 1 & 2. Since I'm transferring files from a 2.0 externall drive to this in a card 3.0 port the trans speeds are not that impressive(not really the drive's fault#, but the reads from it are. I've seen speeds of 100MBs and above. My load and render speeds have increased significantly. A simple transfer of video files#3gigs# took about 1min from the drive to the laptop. The case is made primarily aluminum w/ some plastic and seems very sturdy. I don't feel any worry with this as I would with current ssd's#enough net-searching revealed all makes w/ critical flaws#. The price is high, but very comparable with the high end ssd's in the same size. I was also shocked that my card was able to power this as it could not power an external ssd of the same size that was supposed to work#even tried the usb power to no avail). I took a chance on this and I am very pleased. Assuming I don't experience any fails with this I could see it as a good enterprise option.

Huge Capacity, Speedy with a USB 3 connection. However, in USB 3 mode it does get warm transferring a large amount of data.

I ordered this flash drive to back up critical information from my computer. I have a computer with I7-3770 processor, 16GB ram, 2 TB hard disk (SATA 3, 6 GB/s) and 4 x USB 3.0 ports. I loaded 17,877 files in many folders, totaling 26.4GB of data, with random sizes. This was all real data that I needed to save. When WRITING the data to the Patriot the speeds varied between 5 MB/s to 240 MB/s depending on the size of the file with an average of 24.59 MB/s. During the reading phase of the test the speed varied between 20MB/s and a whopping 350 MB/s again depending on the file size, with an avg of 89.49MB/s. I am running Windows 8, and the file mgr has some graphics that are real time that show the performance. Now the real test is will the device live a long an speedy life. Based on the performance the I have seen, it would lead me to believe that those who have had slow performance didn't have the raw computer horsepower to drive the flashdrive into the twilight zone.

I am using this large capacity flash drive with my home network for storing photos, music, files and movies in place of a conventional harddrive and it works perfectly!!

I am very happy with this product, it has a great read/write speed, it works exactly as advertised
