Supersonic speed is a rate of travel of an object that exceeds the speed of sound… in other words you are hauling #$%! Can this be said for the Patriots series of Flash Drive that says that it has some incredible Read and Write speeds? Will do some testing to see if this is true or not.

I do not know how often you might use a flash drive but I can tell you that it must have for those of us that need to work on items on different computers when one does not have internet access. Yea I know who doesn’t have internet access, but some companies do no allow their employes to access the time waster at work. Another instance would be that some of the new TV have a USB port that allows you to view photos by just plugging it in. If you ever had to experience the transferrate of a lot or large size files then you know the pain of the wait. What if you could get the ease of a flash drive with the speed of the USB 3.0, then read on.
