Patriot Supersonic Magnum 128GB Review + BenchMarks

Patriot has lauch many USB flash drives in this year and they are the actual competetor of the corsair in this market. Today we take a look at their Supersonic Magnum USB 3.0 flash drive of 128GB of great storage capacity.However USB 3.0 devices based on Solid-State Disk (SSD) technology have been released, such as the Kingston HyperX Max, which do deliver around 6x more performance. That said, at $280 US for the 128GB version the HyperX Max is hardly cheap and the 2.5” design doesn’t make it all that portable.Certainly the most appealing external USB 3.0 storage right now are thumb drives. Their pocket size design means they are easy to transport and you can always have one handy. The unfortunate reality however is that most USB 3.0 thumb drives deliver quite poor performance. Out of the handful of devices that I have tested just a few stand out, with some of the better examples being the Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 and Patriot SuperSonic.ust like last year's award winning Magnum product, the new Supersonic Magnum uses aluminium for the casing. Even the cap is made mainly from aluminium. Patriot did make some changes to the accessory package this year, though, the lanyard and USB extension are missing, both features that helped propel the 2010 Magnum ahead of the competition.

Tech Specs :

Durable black aluminum case with lid
Blue framing
USB 3.0 interface (backwards compatible)
Shock absorbent (up to 15G)
64 & 128GB
Also available as USB 2.0 version
8-channel technology:
Up to 200 MB/s reading & 110 MB/s writing
Lanyard hole with status light
Size: 72mm (L), 26mm (W), 6mm (H)
Weight: 19.5g
10 year data retention
5 years warranty

Lets take a look at benchMarks results...

• Nice Design.
• Good Build Quality.
• Nice Performance.
• Large storage Capacity.
• Good improvement than previous Generation.

• Write Performance is a little bit low.
• Expensive.
