Dear TPU,
I have recently found myself in bit of a hassle with an extremely slow USB drive. Thinking that I'm a genius, I decided to buy a Sandisk 8GB drive for £5 (it was on sale) and soon after, I realised just how slow this thing was. Because I often end up copying rather large amounts of data on my USB, this thing has been an incredible pain in the arse.
And so, I went to google and began my research. After a shitload of charts and website, I concluded that a very affordable Trascend JetFlash 700 might suit me but I thought "I might as well go to TPU and see what they've got to say"; and so, here I am.
My criteria isn't vast - fastest writing/reading speeds while remaining affordable. USB 3.0 is an advantage since I plan on using this USB for the years to come. Size-wise I was thinking of going for the 32 Gb which is only £25 on Amazon (The JetFlash).
So, what do you think guys? Should I buy it or are there better options out there?
I guess my budget extends to about £30 but if its really worth it, I'll go up to £50 (but this shit must really be awesome).
