(see SuperSonic Xpress)

With the recently unleashed SuperSonic, Patriot is breaking new ground for USB flash drives. So far, their driving force was the Xporter, already boasting impressive speeds with models like the Magnum (which coincidentally, we will meet again in this post). But integrating USB 3.0 together with leading edge technology, Patriot is taking it up a notch. The SuperSonic flash drives use multiple channeling to make the most out of 3.0, delivering real high speeds even for large sequential file transfers. And for those on a budget, there is also more down-to-earth model. Simple yet stylish, a black and blue theme rounds off the picture. Literally!

As a third generation of PNY Attaches has come out, its time to do a 4th post on PNY flash drives. As you can see, styles have become more compact with additional uses such as labeling, charity, protection and swift attachment. It goes to show that ambassadors can be quite useful in real life, at least in the form of USB flash drives…
