Let's compare those numbers to my Crucial BX500 240GB Internal SSD.My Crucial BX 500 managed 543.1MB/s read, and 372.0MB/s write on the SEQ1M Q8T1 test, which simulates 8 sequential operations at once utilizing a single thread. This simulates moving large...
Abstract: If you're a gamer on the go, the HyperX Savage is geared for you. With super-fast transfer speeds of up to 350MB/s, I found the HyperX Savage user experience to be comparable to modern SSDs. I was honestly impressed with how solid this drive feels. For a...
The first thing that I have to say is that this drive didn't enjoy being benchmarked with the various tools that I am currently using, so if you are only looking at those numbers you will be left with mixed feelings and perhaps asking for that little extr...

Huge Block Transfers Like Drive Images Bog Down A Little
The Kingston HyperX Savage USB 3.1 Gen 1 128GB did indeed transfer at 350MB/s read and 250MB/s write. Now, take an external drive enclosure and dongle and shove it in your pants pocket and walk around a bit. Take the external out and put in a HyperX S...

The HyperX Savage looks good on paper (and on some benchmarks), but in real-world use, it sputters with small files, and loses the value war against certain external SSDs. Read More…...

When we received the HyperX Savage 128GB USB 3.1 Gen 1 flash drive by Kingston roughly 2+ months ago although we all knew it was basically a renamed USB 3.0 drive we didn't feel it'd be right to test it on a USB 3.0 compatible mainboard so al...

In the past I've tested USB flash drives that didn't quite meet their advertised specifications. However, the Kingston HyperX Savage USB Drive does in fact meet or exceed the advertised specifications. While not every copy or write scenario is going to be...

When I first received this memory stick I had doubts that this drive would be anything that was truly impressive other than it's build quality, but I was mistaken. In the past I have found the speeds on a memory stick to be very optimistic, but in terms o...
The HyperX Savage USB 3.1 type 1 drive falls into a very interesting position. The drive matches or beats the advertised performance numbers and with a quick glance at available drives it is faster than the standard USB 3 drives on the market although I...
