it than you will out of a USB 2 thumb drive so this particular guy is a more value oriented USB 3 drive it's not quite the fastest one out there but it's still going to be several times faster than anything on a USB 2.0 interface it has that clamshell type package that I'm really not a big fan of and I forgot my knife upstairs so I'm trying to struggle my way through this but give me a second here guys so I forced it open with a screwdriver of all things there we go all right so what's Kingston have to say for themselves about this guy well they're saying up to 100 megabytes per second reads up to 70 megabytes per second rights now my experience with these USB 3 thumb drives is that you're only really going to achieve those speeds in a scenario where you're reading or writing large files so if you're doing small files it will be smaller but or smaller slower but but they will still be dramatically faster than the usb2 equivalents so here we go uh speed read oh okay and it will max out a USB 2.0 interface at about 30 and 30 megabytes per second reads and writes now that 30 is probably a little bit optimistic I would think it would be more along the lines of about 25 um in
