I really don't see the purpose of this device. I think it's just a gimmick meant to vacuum a few xtra $$$ out of your wallet.

First. I totally agree with the statement above. Why buy this crap when there are good products out there.
Eg:
This first one is the best i could find
OCZ Turbo 4GB
Read: 30-35 MB/s
Write: 26-30 MB/s
Access: 6-9ms - depending on test method

Second. I have been looking arround the Inet for some time now, but I havent been able to find any good USB-Stick test out there. In the tests I dont give a F..k about data-safety, waterprof or the looks of the casing. I just want straight simple benchmark. Read [MB/s], Write [MB/s] and Access time [ms].

Third. I would like to hear if any of you have used your USB-Stick as primary drive ( C:\ ) and tried to load windows and maby some games onto it. - My thourght was that if i bourght a USB-Stick ( 16 or 32GB ) I could have something like a cheap SSD-disk. THEN... the thourght went on ... and why not use a Raid-0 Stripe on the usb as well?
Can this be done? - and if, how?
