Just compared it to a year old Memorex Traveldrive and it is about twice the speed for a multifile write as well as a multi-file erase operation. I wrote a 520 MB folder to it. The folder contained several subfolders as well, and had a total of 1167 objects. Write time for the HP v125W 4 GB was 2 minutes, 30 seconds. Erase time was 35 seconds. For the Memorex (also a 4 GB), write time was 4 minutes 30 seconds and erase time was 52 seconds. Both tests were done using Vista Home Premium on a new-model HP machine with a Vista performance index of 4.6. I also tried a test at work, and can't remember the exact time, but I'm pretty sure it was faster under XP there ;-) Anyway, its a small, low-cost drive with good speed. Go for it ! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: HP v125w 4 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 3-Pack P-FD4GBX3-HPV125W-FS (Personal Computers) this is pretty good I was leery buying an HP jumpdrive but hey is good.
these things are pretty fast for entry level and solid memory wise they are also super light. and fairly distinctive so if you like HP or just want a different drive that is good not bad. for the average computer geek 4gb is probably not enough but good for casual users. bottom line if you don't need 200x or backup softs or hate HP buy this it works. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: By DHC "River Rat" (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: HP v125w 4 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive 2-Pack P-FD4GBX2-HPV125W-FS (Personal Computers) I use one drive to backup my PC. It stores ALL of my pictures, documents, etc. The other drive is used to store pictures and display on a digital picture frame. If you need 2 flash drives this is a good value. |
