Everything USB published a review on Super Talent Express RC8 Flash Drive

For many, using anything but a solid state drive for their system would be unacceptable from a performance standpoint. So why do we enthusiasts accept less performance from our flash drives? This obviously was a question the engineers over at Super Talent were asking themselves, as the all new Express RC8 flash drive is seemingly tailor-made to answer just that. Unlike similar drives out there, this little device is powered by a SSD grade controller in the form of the SandForce SF1200. This in and of itself would almost surely guarantee a cult following. Does it sound too good to be true? Is the Express RC8 the perfect blend of power and portability? Check out my full review to find out.

Verdict:
While the performance it offers does vary from good to great, the Super Talent Express RC8 is nearly the perfect blend of power and portability. The increased longevity it offers is also a bonus.

The Good:
+ Good Looks
+ Good to extremely good performance
+ Extremely small
+ Large Capacity
+ Decent Price
+ Great choice for virtualization based programs such as Ceedo
+ Hardware base encryption

The Bad:
- Performance variance depending on data type
- Only two years of warranty
- Does get warm to the touch
- SF1200 controller is old
- ONFi 1.0 NAND
