  Taiwanese Brand with 2-year replacement warranty.
  I have been selling for 6 month this brand on EBAY sold more than 1000pcs.

  By the way, Sandisk USB 3.0 Extreme flash drives have a very high failure rate and they
  have recently stopped production to fix it.

    But Most Memory Storage Taiwanese brands have lifetime warranty…

      ejsteven on 07/09/2012 - 14:41

      .. on certain products… not their entire inventory. Take Transcend, for example, some of their USB drives have lifetime but not the 210/220 series.

  Slight typo on each listing… "Even FASTER on USB 2.0 ports" ;) By that logic, they should be fastest on USB 1.1 ports (or a USB 1.0 port if you're lucky enough to find one)…

    BAsically, MIN. writing speed - 15MB/s on USB 2.0 ports whereas Sandisk USB 2.0 Blade, Fit do
    only 4-5MB/s

    I tested personally

  Speed "applies to the first 20 MB of data transfer" which means nothing. What are the sustained speeds like?

  • 

    AssociatedStorageSpecialist @ eBay Australia on 07/09/2012 - 13:06

    2-3MB/s less after 20MB/s same as Sandisk

    • 

      AssociatedStorageSpecialist @ eBay Australia on 07/09/2012 - 13:41

      correction: after 20MB

• 

  AssociatedStorageSpecialist @ eBay Australia on 07/09/2012 - 13:05

  YEs, they are but our company provide warranty here locally in Sydney.
  So replacement time 1 day.

  Moreover, based on my experience if drive works one year - it will be working forever unless you damage it.

  how do i change your shipping option from [FREE] to [AusPost Registered]

  • 

    AssociatedStorageSpecialist @ eBay Australia on 07/09/2012 - 13:40

    when you check out - please change shipping method

    another solution:
    When you get to the "Review Your Purchase" page there should be 3 options for shipping since that is the 3 options the seller chose…If it is not there you can click on Request Total from Seller which is on the same page right next to the seller's username

  Those speeds are not that impressive. I got a Lexar 32GB for $22 from Flingshot which writes at 45MB/s sustained. It starts at 180MB/s or so then gradually drops to 45MB/s. No it's not a reporting error by Windows. The files were copied over that quickly.

  • 

    AssociatedStorageSpecialist @ eBay Australia on 07/09/2012 - 14:08

    they don't have 32GB flash drives at all only 16GB.

      They did have them in stock when I bought them, and they will return to stock soon enough. BTW, the 180MB/s was not just for 20MB. It lasted quite a while, about half the drive filled up before it dropped to 50MB/s or so.

        jv on 07/09/2012 - 14:12

        yep, they did, i almost bought one, but got the 8Gb for $3 and then for $4 delivered, which was a sweet deal…

        the key word - almost:)
        It is normal to offer undercost for couple hours and then close:)

        I always have in stock.

        I have Lexarr's disti prices: 32GB UBS 3.0 over $20 so that's definately under cost

    that model Speeds up to 3x faster (up to 45MB/s read and 20MB/s write)
    so slower and not available.

    On EBAY price - over $40

  Whilst I cant comment on this product itself, I purchase all my Sandisk SD cards for my photography from this ebay seller and found them to be excellent - fast and genuine.

  I am very tempted as i am currently in the throws of purchasing a Lexar 128GB 300X with guaranteed sustained read/write speeds of 45mbs but on amazon its $130 plus delivery but its an SD card an really I would rather have that than take up one of the only 2 usb ports on my "Slate" but hmmm very tempted sounds like a great deal with local warranty, shame your Sandisk 128gb SD is so expensive.

      That wasn't my question - I did not mention Sandisk at all.

      Any decent USB2 drive (not talking about cheapo $5 drives), can hit 35mb/s write speeds.

    Sandisk always advertises unrealistic speeds, I sell them as well for almost HK's price in Sydney
    I tested the real write speed 30-35MB/s

    The same with their Sandisk Extreme SD cards 45MB/s - the real write speed - 15-16MB/s only

        By the way, Sandisk has stopped production due to ahigh failure rate of these drives.
        Actually, the same situation as with 64GB MIcro SD Ultra Mobile.
        Even now, their Ultra mobile are not good so better buy Samsung

      Does yours support the transmission value: 62.5 — 625 MB/s?

      Let me get that for you. :Computer says no.

        :) I still use a computer cobbled together over the years, about four now, and keep my considerations simple because it's all just too bloody technical. Price and acceptable speed, for now, are what matter to me. It's always changing, isn't it.

        But are you saying the Master is not USB 3, according to your computer? Since I just compared a few supposed USB 3 sticks, including the Master, and they all came back with similar numbers, none are really USB 3?

        I wouldn't know how to test them "using powerful professional grade or developmental equipment." I just compare one to the other using the same software, parameters and hardware. I know, not very scientific, just relative.

        BTW, I made a mistake about the Patriot - had to check that again, it was the Verbatim USB2 I was referring to.

        Planned marketing? Next year they'll be just a little bit faster for the same or a little less money. Unless they can find a reason for charging more money … Oh well! :)
