Maybe some of you remember my review of the A-DATA Football disk USB stick. Before testing I thought "ah well, just another USB stick, but with football theme" and ended up giving the Editor's Choice award to the fastest drive that we tested at this time.
Today a similar thing happened. I expected the stick to be designed to meet Vista ReadyBoost requirements but not more. To be honest, I didn't even think a USB still could exceed 30 MB/s actual transfer rate. Guess I was wrong again. The A-DATA My Flash PD7 is the fastest drive we ever tested, by far. Transfer rates are way beyond the competition, and so is access time.
Other manufacturers charge you an arm and a leg for their high-speed USB drives. A-DATA ask a very fair price, that is just a few more extra bucks over a no name generic drive. With all sizes available up to 8 GB, this USB drive is the right choice for everybody. The only drawback is that the unit is fairly large and the design looks rather simple.
