The 32GB DashDrive UV150 has an average performance profile for a 32GB USB 3.0 flash drive. With sequential read/write speeds of 108/34 MBps the DashDrive favours reading over writing and lands somewhere near the middle of the pack for overall sequential performance. Small file performance is much better with peak 4k read/write speeds of 7.4/1.15 MBps. The 32GB DashDrive UV150 doesn't break any records but puts in an above average performance at an average price. The UV150 isn't a bad drive but despite this, there are far better value for money USB 3.0 drives available in the group test. [Feb '14 USBFlashPro]

The new Adata Dashdrive UV128 has a performance profile that closely matches its older, and recently rebranded, Dashdrive Elite S102 Pro sibling. Comparing the two shows that the drives are nearly identical except for form factor. Personally I prefer a retractable form factor as USB caps are easily lost. Overall in terms of performance the Dashdrive UV128 is slightly above average and in terms of value for money it is also reasonable. [Jul '13 USBFlashPro]
