QUOTE(llleon @ Aug 6 2007, 11:19 AM) Well, you're not the only one. I bought one also, and I can say its the slowest usb drive I've every bought. Its slower than Kingston mini drive and my friend's pendrive. I use diskbench software to test, my friend's pendrive can copy up to 5.2 mbps, while this PQI only can reach 2.1 mbps !!! No wonder everytime I copy a big sized file, I feel its very damn slow. I will blacklist PQI like... forever ! Unless by some miracle, this damn usb can suddenly perform fast.  PQI only certain model is high speed but pricey.  |

Hi, I know someone did a review on Kingmax Superstick before. But I saw there are 2 different models. The old one has no vista readyboost support and the new one has the readyboost support. New (vista readyboost compatible):  and old one (not readyboost compatible):  I was wondering if theres any speed diff between the new and the old Kingmax Superstick Oh yeah, I'm not talking about the blue colored version ( the name is Superstick PRO)...which won't be out till end of the year i think  |

I had the U339pro, fastest for it's price range  to bad can't find any of the faster models in the market at the moment  |

Well, I bought PQI U350 because of its design. But end up suffer because of its speed. Its really horrible. Pendrive 4GB much much faster, more than 2x my PQI. The design is quite cool actually, too bad the performance is sooooo bad.  Btw, besides PQI, I saw Pendrive Envo looks pretty cool as well. Too bad I didn't go for this one. Sigh... |

Envo, I've not yet seen nano. Envo nice enough I think, its really looks cute, hahaha. But I like bigger usb drive better, tat's why I decide to buy PQI.
But seriously, the PQI U350 body and design is nice, if only the speed is good, then I'll love it very much. Too bad...
