    Fair warning - this thing writes at around 1-3MB/s. This is slow for an 8GB drive and would be painful to regularly use moving 30+GB.

  • You would be better off with the 64GB verbatim for $35, in the earlier post from today.

  • I was getting around 12.5mb/sec from my 8GB Cruzer when I was copying a couple hundred 600kb files.

  • It's so hard to find the speed of this thing. Sandisk's website doesn't say, which is enough reason to avoid it. But I did find some independent speed tests ( http://usbspeed.nirsoft.net/?pdesc=SanDisk+Cruzer+Slice+USB+… ) with these results:

    read: 18 MB/s
    write: 4 MB/s

    These speeds aren't bad. For 30GB of data it would take 30 minutes to read and 133 minutes to write, assuming it can sustain those speeds.

    • Write times are pretty bad. I don't want to wait 2+ hours to copy 30GB.
