By Khen on April 28, 2014
Review submitted for Patriot 128GB Supersonic Xpress Series Cap-less USB 3.0 Flash Drive - PSF128GXPUSB (PMPSF128GXPUSB)
Pros: 128gb at 3.0 and got it for a steal. Perfect for consolidating all those smaller flash drives I had everywhere.
Cons: More secure way to attach lanyard or badge.

1 out of 5 stars   Good - for data that is not CRITICAL
By ivansword on June 06, 2013
Review submitted for Patriot 16GB Supersonic Xpress USB 3.0 Flash Drive (PMPSF16GXPUSB)
Pros: Inexpensive, Retractable Usb Connector, USB 30 interface, Clean looking, Usb 3 0 Interface, Hard shell
Cons: Blue Rw Led Is Faint, Warranty Process C, Unreliable, Rw Speeds Not As Claimed, Vs Others Cheap Parts, Servicewarrantyc, Retractable Usb Connector, Retracts While Inserting, Dead X3 Wks Later
Other Comments: Used a few times a week to transfer documents to and from the office. Pros: see above, limited. Cons: when compared side by side to other brands, e.g., Corsair voyager, the parts look and feel more vulnerable and/or brittle. notice the molding of the blue 3.0 usb plug between the models, Patriot is light in color, fits the connects with less precision, and looks like manufacturing standards are subpar. do not place data on this you can not loose, this contained data that was synced every time it was plugged in. when it failed out, it was actually plugged in to the PC and just disappeared mid file transfer. one days worth cost us 100 hours, and we are diligent about backups. Point in case, even the backup rule is not a guarantee. Attempted to recover with excellent forensics software, sector by sector raw, and everythign but forensic hardward tools. I have never failed to recover anything before as long as the original files have not been overwritten with data. format, change the MBR, delete resize, and move partitions, I can get it back. Format and wipe 10 times, I can get it back - unless it has been overwritten. This device was the first time I have failed to salvage even one file from. Believe me, that is saying something. A lemon, certainly, but it shakes trust in a brand when data has value. For the record, I own many patriot items, and have never experienced issues with any of them. Human nature kindly hangs on to the one negative experience despite all of the positives. If you get anything, know they are usually a good brand. Simply factor in the facts and consider options. I will likely buy more of their products, but will forever be wary. Once that association is created and you feel... something, a change in thinking occurs, and it is difficult to reverse that.

4 out of 5 stars   Good solid USB drive
By Johann on March 28, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Patriot 16GB Supersonic Xpress USB 3.0 Flash Drive (PMPSF16GXPUSB)
Pros: Fast Read - 30mb, Convenient, Fast Read 30mb
Cons: A little bulky
Other Comments: Used it to transfer 15GB of data among a few different computers. The fast read was important to me, and on my laptop with an SSD and USB 3 I averaged 28MB/second. Not as fast as advertised, but good enough to make me happy!

1 out of 5 stars   Slower than my old USB 2.0 flash drive
By Brandon on March 27, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Patriot 16GB Supersonic Xpress USB 3.0 Flash Drive (PMPSF16GXPUSB)
Pros:
Cons: Not fast, Slow, Transfers Data Slowly, Moves Like Molasses
Other Comments: This thing is slow. I bought it to replace my old broken USB 3.0 flash drive and the only reason I didn't return it was because it was so cheap it wasn't worth the time. In the USB 3.0 slot: This flash drive = 9.5MB/s My old 3.0 flash drive = 20+MB/s In the USB 2.0 slot: This flash drive = 9.5MB/s My old 3.0 flash drive = 17MB/s A random 2.0 flash drive I had sitting around = 14MB/s Why is this so slow? I don't know. I have the latest drivers for everything. I must either have a lemon or it's just that bad.

3 out of 5 stars   Wildly different speed than 32gb?
By Hal on March 27, 2013
Verified Purchase
Review submitted for Patriot 16GB Supersonic Xpress USB 3.0 Flash Drive (PMPSF16GXPUSB)
Pros: Design, Size, price, Brand
Cons: Speed, transfer rate
Other Comments: Contrary to what others have said in other reviews, I really LIKE the click-design (that would obviously changed if it fails but I'm 3 months into my first one with no problems, taking it in and out 2-3 times a day from my PC and from my Roku). The price was rock bottom; great deal. HOWEVER, I have the 32gb version and I get consistent write rates (putting data onto the USB drive) of between 37-42 mb/sec, but for some reason I only get 8-11 mb/sec with this 16gb version. Same NTFS formatting, same files, same port, same everything but wildly different speeds between the 32 and 16gb version of the exact same model drive?!? Additionally the last time I put a bunch of files on it, it would swing wildly between less than 1mb/sec and then 5-6 mb/sec...no idea what was going on or if that will continue to happen but I hope not. Regardless it'd be more expensive to ship it back so I can't really complain. Still disappointing with this 16gb size...LOVE MY 32gb though!
