Pros & Cons
Pros
Love the super fast speed of read and write operations, copying an mp4 movie of 4. Gb is super fast. Much better than you basic bottom barrel thumb drive. Seems it may last longer with it.
Computers use binary approximations of the decimal values, and so when your computer stores a 1kb document it occupies 1024 bytes of space on the drive. By the time we get to yotta drives (1024 bytes) there will be a difference of over 20% between adv... Read More

Highlights
Quality
Had previously been using a standard flash drive and it was so slow, but this scandisk extreme has done a great job in moving our files.

It looks like this drive suffers from lack of heatsink and would benefit from being made of a metal case.
This may have been due to drive initialization however as i ran the test a few more times with no fan and i was getting much better speeds.
Price
1tb is plenty of space for my gaming hard drive, great price for what i got it.
Good pricegood speed both rw and wri also like that it does not come with a capbut it does let me slide the usb back into the unit
