The fastest USB drive I've ever used and I have a pile of them catching dust in a desk drawer. I run the PortableApps suite and the applications run so fast it's hard to tell it they are running from the flash drive or from the hard drive. Like all flash drives, copying many small files is not quite so fast, but if you need to run Firefox, Thunderbird, Open Office, etc from a flash drive. This is the way to go. Very pleased with the purchase and it shipped to me in 2 days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive, but Great, August 27, 2008

This review is from: OCZ, OCZUSBATVT4G, ATV Turbo USB Flash Drive 4GB (Personal Computers)

This 4GB drive is[...], but it puts every other 4GB to shame. I've bought other smaller capacity drives before, and they are painfully slow. This drive transfers at 30 MB/s. It is amazing, almost like it is a part of the hard drive. I personally have not tested the durability like other people, but the drive feels solid in your hand, and based on the other reviews, i am not scared of the devastating losing work in the washing machine anymore, along with drops and spills. (It is nice to not worry.) The size of this drive is a little on the bulky side (especially with the cap holder), but it isn't annoying to carry around, and i usually just keep it in my backpack. The cap holder is a nice feature, although it makes the drive seem much bigger in your pocket for obvious reasons.

This is a good drive to install anything on, as its speed will not slow the program down.

EDIT:
My drive suddenly stopped mounting. Luckily, I had no important data on it as I could not access it. However, OCZ RMAed it no questions asked, so I got a brand spanking new one. I wouldn't have been happy if i had lost data, but because I did not I am okay with it. I could not find any information on the internet which makes me believe this was a rarity.

4.0 out of 5 stars This thing is really really fast., January 11, 2008

This review is from: OCZ, OCZUSBATVT4G, ATV Turbo USB Flash Drive 4GB (Personal Computers)

22MB/Sec write speed and over 30MB/sec read speed.

The only thing i don't like about this drive is the cap... I really wish they had a retractable one like the sandisk cruzers.

But if you are looking for a fast flash drive... nothing beats it (as of when i wrote this)
