What is the sequential write speed in MB/sec? (Please include drive's size in your answer, since I am not sure if all sizes are the same quality)

I got between 5.6 MB/s for large files over 4 GB and 6.2 MB/s for files less than 1MB using a USB 2.0 port.

These drives are kind of strange. It transfers off the drive at high speed (~20 MByte/sec) but only writes at ~2 MByte. So I think it's USB 2.0 but the internal flash management chip on the drive must be pretty inefficient so it can't keep up with the comm. speed when it's doing write operations. Delete operations are also really slow.So overall I probably wouldn't recommend this product. I got them because they were cheap and I don't need high performance for what I'm using them for.

I'm getting just under 130MB/s read and write. It took under 2 hours to copy some files (around a TB) that took seven hours under USB 2.0.

I've had no issues with the speed of the unit. It really depends on the drives you use.

I'm sorry I do not know, nor can I find any reference to its speed. I use thunderbolt to run my drive and it sizzles.

I get ~30-40 MB/s via iSCSI (NAS' CPU is maxed...) with all other services disabled, can't comment on SMB performance since I dont use it. These are definitely not the fastest units. (for anyone else reading this, that is megaBYTES per second, not megaBITS)

The PNY Turbo Plus Attache USB 3.0 Flash Drive (32GB model) reads as fast as 140MBps* and writes up to 70MBps* . (From Google search)

Sandisk says "write speed up to 90 MB/s"I did some tests with my USB 3 Card Reader (sandisk brand) Wrote a 4gb file to it and averaged 75mb/s and even faster on smaller files.. PC: i7 2600k @ 4.2 Win 7 64bit

I got about 300 MB/s, which is about half of the max speed but it was plenty fast. If you are connecting the USB 3 wire to an external USB 3 hard disk, and not doing hard disk intensive work on your main OS drive, I think you will get about the same rate of transfer speed while moving large files. Good luck!

Leef Surge USB 2.0 64 Write - up to 15 MB/s; Read - up to 28 MB/s. Thank you

I can get 30mb/s over gigabit with jumbo frames and two drives in raid 1. There's a lot of variability depending on if you're moving one large file or many small ones. I don't know if this is due to my drives or the nas.

I'm running this drive on ACHI, so yea, it works. ACHI says its only running at 1.5 GB/s when it should be 3 GB/s for my motherboard and the drive clearly supports up to 6GB/s but it doesn't really matter since you'll pretty much never go too far over 200 MB/s with one of these drives.

A regular harddrive reads and writes about about 80 megs per second, this drive does it at around 400 mps. Its really impressive, but you need to make sure both the drive and the computer its connected to have SSDs and thunderbolt to take advantage of the speed.

I will test it tonight and see. Last time I checked though it performed at good speeds. But I am only using a 4700rpm drive so I may be maxing out the read/write on it anyways. But from my experience it performs a lot better then 2.0. Also another note is that if you plug this into a 3.0 port you don't need to use the extra USB cable for power. The 3.0 port can put out enough juice to power the whole thing. I didn't know this before I bought and honestly wasn't a big deal, but helpful to know now.

The main thing is this: when I bought my 3000 dollar laptop from HP, it came with 128gb msata card for drive c. I wanted to ugrade to 256 from bullet. I was surprised like many are that their laptop was given a sataII msata and I got 225 read and 175 write. After using the Bullet case I cloned my c drive and my read speed went up to 550 read and 420 write. Now because of the nature of the beast the USB3 port only gives you sataII like speeds. which is still faster than a spinning hard drive. I use ATTO Disk Benchmark Speed test software. It is a free download, google it.

Hi Bandi, Technically, your drive is capable of making disk-to-host transfers of up to 110 MB/s, and USB 2.0 maxes out at 60 MB/s, where USB 3.0 maxes at around 125 MB/s. Your drive will probably never reach 110 MB/s, but I would suggest using a USB 3.0 enclosure so that your drive can run as fast as it pleases. Besides, at some point you'll probably upgrade even your "backup drive", and you'll want the speed. On a personal note, I love this enclosure. You'll need to buy some little rubber feet from the hardware store to keep it from sliding around, but other than that, it's great! Jack

MLC or TLC NAND question has been answered. But, I just wanted to clear up something that made it confusing to me when purchasing the 64gb. Amazon has the description for the 64gb as "Up to 90MB/s Read Speed, 50MB/s write speed". The samsung packaging I received clearly shows "read speeds up to 90MB/s, Write Speeds up to 80MB/s". Glad this is up par with the speedy 32gb version. Hope this helps.
