The bigger the drive gets slower it feels like! There was a time when we used to be very happy having a 64 or 128 mb thumb drive and 512 was top of the line. We didnt even mind waiting for the 512 to fill up a few second more.
These metal flash drives use the latest USB spec to achieve up to 60MB/s read speeds on USB 3.0. The price is not out yet. They shall be coming in 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB sizes
