The V3 MAX is Verbatim's 2013 upgrade to the Store n go range of high performance USB 3.0 Flash Drives. Verbatim have promised a blisteringly fast 175 Mbps read and 80 Mbps write speed for this flash drive. Considering our experience with the V3 Store n go which we reviewed last year, these figures may well prove to be conservative! We won't know for sure until we do a full review of the V3 MAX (still difficult to get hold of in the UK) but in the mean time, assuming Verbatim's figures are correct, this drive will be amongst the faster USB 3.0 Flash Drives we have reviewed. One area we will be watching closely is the real world copy speed, a test where the V3 Max's predecessor struggled. To conclude this drive promises to be one of the faster USB 3.0 Flash Drives on the market but at over £20 there is almost certainly better value for money elsewhere. [Jun '13USBFlashPro]
The 64GB SanDisk Ultra Fit is the largest capacity available in the Ultra Fit range. Both the 16GB and 32GB siblings fared well in terms of peak performance but with the majority of flash based products larger capacities are faster. Unfortunately for the Ultra Fit this proved not to be the case. Comparing the performance leading Mushkin Ventura and 64GB Ultra Fit shows that the Ventura is around 600% faster but just 60% more expensive. Although the Ultra Fit is a contender in the 32GB and 16GB capacities it doesn't fare well against the 64GB competition. If you are looking for a tiny form factor the 64GB SanDisk Ultra Fit is superb but otherwise there are better alternatives available with better peak and significantly better sustained transfer speeds.

We highlight the best USB flash drive in terms of balanced performance and value for money using current prices, sequential read, sequential write , 4k read and 4k write speed. The speeds are combined to form a single effective speed which measures performance for tasks such as copying photos, music and videos. Effective speed is adjusted by current price and capacity to yield value for money. Finally thousands of individual user ratings are used to validate our benchmark figures. [USBFlashPro]
