The ADATA Nobility N005 clocks in at a respectable 30 Euro, which places it right in the fray of things. With the mainstream USB 3.0 flash drive market still evolving, the N005 offers very good read performance and adequate write speeds when using the new interface. With USB 2.0 the drive is by no means the fastest and is still beat by high-performance USB 2.0 drives, but still offers a very good write performance of around 24 MB/s with this interface. In a market segment where a few dollars can mean the difference in terms of price / performance the ADATA Nobility N005 series is not perfect - as I would like to have seen a bit better write performance with USB 3.0. Overall the drive does offer a good balance for the price point.
