Gets Quite Hot
Cap cannot be placed on opposite end of drive
Pricey
Black in color and I loose those caps all the time

Abstract: It's hard to believe that the fastest USB 3.0-rated thumb drives can outperform the hard drive in your desktop PC. On the other hand, the slowest models shouldn't even be allowed USB 3.0 branding. We test 31 different drives to determine the quickest. M...

The Supersonic is the first USB flash drive from Patriot to come through the 'Labs and to be honest, they could not have made a better first impression. Along with a compact, shock resistant design, this USB 3.0 flash drive packs some impressive perfo...

The Patriot Supersonic 64GB USB Flash Drive is one of the first SuperSpeed USB 3.0 drives to come to market and one of the first to feature Quad Channel memory. The Patriot Supersonic certainly lives up to the promise these technologies would hold and ...
Abstract: Patriot's Supersonic 64GB USB 3.0 thumb drive can copy an 8.5GB MKV movie file over to a PC in 2 minutes 39 seconds via USB 3.0 port, or about 5 minutes via a USB 2.0 port. By comparison, it takes 7 minutes 33 seconds for an older single channel USB 2...
Flash memory is one of the most rapidly evolving technologies in the computer industry right now. Competition is fierce, and the temptation to fudge the performance numbers in the marketing materials is great, especially given the rapid pace at which ...

Write speeds fell just short of published specifications, No string/lanyard included, Nowhere to store loose cap, Not water proof or water resistant
The Patriot Memory Supersonic 32GB USB 3.0 flash drive performed just about as expected, which means a new level of performance when upgrading from a USB 2.0 capable flash drive. The write speeds were almost as good as the published specification (70M...
Great performance, Quad-channel technology, Native USB 3.0 controller, Available in 32GB and 64GB versions
