- Strengths:
- Read speeds are quick, ~32mb/s read
Durable design, fully protected by a rubber insulator.
Cheap!
- Weaknesses:
- Write speeds are average.
The rubber cap is not very good at staying on
Not as slim as other flash drives of similar capacity due to the rubber jacket.
- Summary:
- Overall a good bang for the buck drive. It has decent write speeds, but excellent read speeds.
Good for large files but...

- Strengths:
- Cheaper in price when compared to other 4GB drives. Excellent speeds when dealing with large files.
- Weaknesses:
- Rubber casing is a thick; thick enough such that it _may_ block other usb ports. Attrocious speeds when dealing with small files. Unzipping a ~150mb file containing roughly 3000+ files took 10 minutes. IO intensive applications also do not fare very well on this drive: a common operation taking 5 seconds on a portable HD takes almost 30 seconds.
- Summary:
- Great if you are looking for a cheap way to store your files. If however you work with a lot of small files you are better off looking somewhere else.
Great drive for the money

- Strengths:
- FAST for reading
can do ~31MB/s if the files are greater than 256KB in size
good price, blows away kingston drives.
- Weaknesses:
- slow for writing
does ~11MB/s write 256KB or greater
way too big, the rubber jacket makes it too thick and you cant take it off, seems like its glued on, im sure you can rip it off though.
