32GB Part II
In our first part of 32GB flash drives we went from the Corsair Flash Voyager to the Kingston DataTraveler 200. In this second part we can see that Kingston pretty much dominates the 32GB market as we continue with their brand, including a real highlight – the newly released DT 102.

So how much stuff can you actually put on a 32GB flash drive? If you’re talking images, ca. 128000 with a resolution of 1280 x 960. Music-wise you can store about 8333 regular mp3s. As for video, try 45 movies in avi-format or 7 DVDs. Not bad for a memory that’s basically in the middle of the spectrum! For more details see the following list.

Thanks for the reply! I I borrowed a friend’s Corsair Survivor (32GB) and it was fine to work with but rather slow when saving. I guess the write speed is the issue. Is 10MB/s average – both for writing and reading?
Your list is very comprehensive, and you also sell a few of them, right? Would you mind listing the ones you sell that would be of interest for me (assuming you are able to do it a lot quicker than I would). Cheers! /Sebastian

Sebastian,
I dont sell any of the flash drives personally, I only provide the links to where you can buy them. 10 MB/s write is average for most models, however the speed always depends on the computer/system you use them with. If you look primarily for fast transfer rates your best shot are the Corsair GT(R) drives.

All such models of Kingston Data Traveler work very nice and the features are also very innovative. I must recommend everyone to use such new models.
