I hear you — trying to find a 64?GB USB thumb drive with reliable read/write performance can be surprisingly tricky if you’re basing things just on price. A lot of the cheaper drives will claim a capacity, but unless you dig into actual benchmarks or user?reported speed numbers, it’s hard to know what you’re really getting.
In my experience, what helps is looking at sites that do show real read and write numbers, even if they don’t let you sort by it directly. Some tech forums and enthusiast benchmarks will test USB drives and post actual throughput results, which gives you a much clearer picture than the marketing numbers on a product page. I’ve personally been burned by a “fast” drive that had decent read speeds but painfully slow writes — totally fine for media playback, but useless if you’re frequently moving large files.
I don’t know of many big online vendors that let you sort by read/write performance out of the box, but price comparison sites and tech review pages sometimes have that in sortable tables.
Have you come across any user?posted benchmark charts that focus on real throughput (not just advertised specs)? Those seem way more helpful when comparing drives at different price points. |
