Strengths:
Used one to install Windows 8 in under 3 minutes.
Weaknesses:
Slower write speed.
Additional Comments:
These work fine for installing Windows. If you are doing an MBR install them you can use the MS tool to make it into a boot-able Windows install drive. If you want to do a GPT (UEFI) install then you need to look for a tutorial for making the USB drive boot-able in UEFI. You will then have the option to do either style boot. Just be aware that it only will install according to the mode that you booted.

Strengths:
Speedy USB Flash Drive
Weaknesses:
Does not work for installing Windows 7 or higher.
Additional Comments:
This Flash Drive does not seem to support installing Windows 7 or higher from it. The Windows Setup will boot and run. At the Drive/Partition selection screen, Windows Setup gives a disk/partition creation error. Manually creating the partition ahead of time does not solve the issue.
This is on USB2 and USB3 systems. (Not a USB3.0 Driver issue)
We have tested and recommend the Patriot Supersonic Rage XT USB 3.0 Flash Drives for installing Windows from USB. ( MX44199 / MX44202 )
