When the copy bar is the thing you stare at

A plain stick reads at 100 to 150 MB/s, so a 10 GB folder of video takes a minute or more to come off it. The drives on this shelf read at 300 MB/s and up, and the solid-state ones at about 1,000 MB/s, which turns that minute into about ten seconds. That is worth paying for if you move camera footage or whole photo libraries every week.

A fast drive needs a fast port to show it: USB 3.2 Gen 2 for the 1,000 MB/s drives, USB 3.x for the rest. In a USB 2.0 port every drive here slows to about 30 MB/s. Write speeds are lower than read speeds on every flash drive, and the product pages print both where the maker does.

Questions

Questions about fast flash drives at EasyFlash

How much time does a 1,000 MB/s EasyFlash drive save you?

A 10 GB folder comes off it in about ten seconds, against almost two minutes on a 100 MB/s stick. Writing is slower on every drive. The product page prints both speeds where the maker does.

Do you need a special port for a fast drive?

For 1,000 MB/s you need USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps), usually a USB-C port on a recent laptop. In a USB 3.0 port the same drive tops out near 400 MB/s, and in USB 2.0 near 40 MB/s.

What do you get from a solid-state flash drive?

A flash drive built like a small SSD, with a faster controller and memory than a plain stick. It keeps its speed through long copies better, which matters for video.
