welcome to my unboxing and trick Oh again welcome to my unboxing and first look at the a data 64 gig nobility and 005 the news ok USB 3 thumb drive now you guys might wonder why am i unboxing a thumb drive what is the point of unboxing a thumb drive to which I would answer the point is speed because this thumb drive is capable of reading it up to 180 megabytes per second and which makes it a hundred and twenty percent faster than what I don't know but it's a pro drive it also is very big look at this thing but very big in a way that's not sort of ridiculous like this this Drive drives me crazy because look how wide it is see this is this is a kingston drive and like look the USB interface isn't even like centered so by the time you plug that into anything you can't plug in anything next to it this drive right here is long because it has to have multiple flash chips on it there's nothing we can do about the physics of that but it's narrow enough that you should still be able to plug other devices in nearby it has a cap that shouldn't be 20 it only goes on one way I wish it was reversible but it's not the end of the world has a spot here for a queuing you know what the whole point of this is basically speed so we'll be back in a moment we'll show you guys a real world test of the speed of this drive alright so we're plugged into we're using an as media controller on this particular shuttle PC and we've got it plugged into our front USB 3 just for lulz we're trying a bit of a new benchmark we're using the black magic disk speed test to find out what we can actually get in terms of like real world sustained reads and writes now 86 megabytes per second is some pretty beast write speeds for a USP tribe that is absolutely out standing the read speeds weren't as fast as we saw advertised on the box but 120 megabytes per second reads are still very respectable now that's not necessarily the be-all and end-all of benchmarks so what we might do here is take a 1.27 gigabyte file and copy that over two hour drive and see if we can do on my iphone in my pockets I don't have a time or bubble time it there you go now I run into some problems the first time I did this benchmark so I'm sorry I'm going to completely different place to have been completely different things I'm Idina drive plugged into the as media controller on this particular issue sports p9x79 deluxe I've got my 88 a drive here so we're going to do a quick test of a coffee speeds and since i'm using windows 8 we should actually be able to get a fairly accurate representation so these two files are about one gig each so it looks like we're writing at about eighty five megabytes per second consistently to the drive which is very very cool stuff now if we take some other USB 3 drive but we go ahead and copy that exact same file to it what I'm expecting to see is significantly different results i'm going to go ahead pull up my knee data drive i'm going to put in this as a patriot transporter xt usb3 drive so still you sp3 it's going to be faster than a USB to drive but not expecting anything near as Extreme as what we just saw so let's open a folder to view the files let's go ahead and copy this bad boy in here so we're seeing about 36 megabytes per second which is not the same as the ad to drive so not all USB 3 drives are created equal if you guys thought that then you're probably mistaken about that particular notion now what I want to do is I want to go ahead and read off of the drives to find out what the difference is there all right let's truly a day to drive back in here i've rebooted just to make sure that there's no funny caching issues with the files in windows or anything like that so we've got our drive open now my few here so you guys can see what's going on and we are going to copy it into the root of the drive and see what happens i need to administrator permission I'll show you administrative permission 170 megabytes per second 174 average of 175 so guess guys it's not quite the 180 megabytes per second that they advertised and honestly the rights aren't quite there either but I think what we're about to see when we throw our Patriot drive back on the backend test bench is that it is pretty significantly more baller than just your average USB Drive I mean this is pretty cool it's a fairly large product but I still think that you definitely see kind of a value add to it here if it's going to go and go and be that much faster especially in terms of reeds let's copy it somewhere else will copy it to the AMD folders to sure that nothing silly is happening here so here we go we see a much more mundane mundane read speed around 35 megabytes per second so thank you for checking out my little benchmarking review video of a data's and 005 pro the coach descent appalled at the end 008 the new the new drive don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips from our unboxings reviews and other computer videos featuring this
