I ordered a second OCZ Rally2 16GB here and expected the same model I ordered before from Amazon with the Silicon Motion DYNA-SM32X controller (VID 0325), but to my big disappointment was sent a model with a totally different (probably cheaper) controller inside the flash drive, Phison PS2232 from Russia (VID 13FE).
Unfortunately the current controller does NOT meet my expectations: in contrast to its previous controller (& firmware) it does NOT allow flipping the removable bit with Lexar BootIt or any other utility, which allowed my other Rally2 to
a) boot even on PCs that do NOT allow booting from removable drives (the majority only allows booting from USB hard disks).
b) be partitioned, in my case NTFS/ HFS+ journaled/ extFS2) and have all partitions visible not just in Mac OS X and Linux (those don't care too muchabout the RMB), but also in Windows.

Have had this drive about a week and it works great.
Though they could have maybe molded the end to the shape of a Male USB so that you could put the cap there in while it's in use, I'm not docking it stars for that since I knew that going in and don't have much of a problem with caps.
I transferred 5.6 GBs (1800 files) in about 14 mins from a Kingston 8gb 2.0 drive to this drive via vista, so I don't understand the other review that says it took 2 hours for 9 GB, maybe that wasn't slotted in a 2.0 plug.
Very slim, very nice, not cheap feel to it, unlike plastic.

OCZ as always never let me down. Great price for an excelent Flash drive. Is faster than corsair voyager and i like the metal body and the slim form.
