Seems a bit pricey... especially when Super Talent is releasing their 16GB USB3.0 flash drive for $29!

It all comes down to performance, if that's 60MB/s write, then it's not half bad. Also bear in mind that electronics are more expensive in Taiwan than the US, despite at least some of it still being made in Taiwan.

60MB/s is very low end for USB 3.0

cap less = breaks fast, at least in my experience.

You must've been unlucky then, I had a 2GB SanDisk Titanium and it never broke, I gave it away in the end. Then I had an 8GB Kingston HyperX drive, still going strong, gave it to my GF, as I got a 16GB USB 3.0 drive in it's place, sadly with a cap that keeps falling off all the time.

The Adata drive I have only manages about 27MB/s write speed, not exactly fast if this thing can do 60MB/s write and the price is comparative as well. If it's 60MB/s read, then it's not all that, as my Adata drive manages in the region of 80MB/s.

I had a SanDisk Titanium that got lodged inside the rim of my washing machine for 3 months (left it in my jeans pocket). Let it dry, plugged it back in my computer and away it went.

For me the cap is the first thing that gets lost. I prefer the retractable type.
