    This deal has been Banged Better.

  • The $8 USB 3.0 16GB's were a good deal if you got one.

    Just got mine today from the last deal.

    Did a quick benchmark on Crystaldiskmark running 100MB test
    Sequential Read : 17.610 MB/s
    Sequential Write : 7.115 MB/s
    Random Read 512KB : 18.073 MB/s
    Random Write 512KB : 3.113 MB/s
    Random Read 4KB (QD=1) : 2.383 MB/s [ 581.8 IOPS]
    Random Write 4KB (QD=1) : 0.140 MB/s [ 34.1 IOPS]
    Random Read 4KB (QD=32) : 2.662 MB/s [ 649.9 IOPS]
    Random Write 4KB (QD=32) : 1.089 MB/s [ 265.9 IOPS]

    It's not that bad for a USB 2 actually.
    Hope this helps

  • If this in Dec will be a good Xmas gift, oh wait, there is no snowman in Dec here….sorry.

  • I just received a call from them saying they had no stock and offering a different non-themed drive but I didn't ask what brand/model as I only bought this to give to a friend who likes Xmas stuff. They said that i'll have to wait for more stock to arrive then.

    • Now they email me saying they are out of stock and offering me a Sandisk 8G instead at no further cost otherwise a refund.
