Kingston Datatraveler 2gb benchmark 15th January 2008

Couldn’t find this online, so I thought I would document this for other people to see (and also gain hits from search engines).

Kingston Datatraveler 2GB (DTI/2GB) [green], USB 2.0 interface

Objective: Investigate the read and write speed of the drive.

Test subject: 701 MB .avi file

Results:

Read: 4.27 MB/s
Write: 3.01 MB/s

Evaluation:

Very slow, even for a consumer-level drive. However, there have been reports of even slower drives out there on the market. Patience is highly recommended.
