About Hardware Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB

The Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB is a portable storage solution designed to provide an optimal combination of speed, reliability and affordability. With a 32GB capacity, this flash drive is perfect for storing important documents, photos, videos, and lightweight presentation files and installers, making it an ideal choice for students, office employees, and casual users.

Using a USB 3.0 interface, the Lexar V100 is able to provide better read and write speeds than traditional USB 2.0 flash drives. While it still supports backward compatibility with USB 2.0 ports, using it on a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port will maximize its performance. Its compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry around, while its cap cover helps keep the USB connector protected from dust and damage.

In tests using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 device equipped with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, 12GB DDR4 dual channel RAM, and Windows 11 22H2 operating system, this flash drive recorded the following results:

• CrystalDiskMark:
  • Read: 143.53 MB/s
  • Write: 34.33 MB/s
• ATTO Disk Benchmark (64MB block):
  • Read: 140.66 MB/s
  • Write: 25.04 MB/s 

The read speed of close to 140MB/s shows that this flash drive is responsive enough for activities such as opening large files or playing videos directly from USB. However, the lower write speed (below 40MB/s) reflects the reasonable limitations of economy-class flash drives without DRAM cache.

Technically, the Lexar V100 uses the PF619-32AR NAND chip and ZC3281 controller, a common configuration for low-cost and power-efficient flash drives. Although TBW (Total Bytes Written) and DRAM cache specifications are not available, Lexar remains a trusted brand in the digital storage world, with a good reputation for manufacturing quality and system compatibility.

With a simple design, decent read speed, and competitive price, the Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB is one of the best choices for users who need a cheap and reliable USB 3.0 flash drive for daily use.

About Hardware Verbatim STORE N GO 16GB

Verbatim Store ‘n’ Go 16GB is a practical and economical portable storage solution, designed to meet the basic needs of users in storing and moving data. With a capacity of 16GB, this flash drive offers enough space to store documents, photos, music, and light backup files, making it suitable for students, employees, and home users.

One of the main advantages of the Verbatim Store ‘n’ Go is its retractable design-the USB connector can be recessed into the body, eliminating the need for a physical cover (cap). This provides extra protection against dust and light impacts, and increases portability as there are no parts to lose. The body of the pendrive is made from lightweight plastic but is sturdy enough for everyday use.

Carrying a USB 2.0 interface, this flash drive is not intended for high speeds, but it is still very reliable for simple activities such as document copy-paste or use on older devices. In tests using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, 12GB dual channel RAM, and Windows 11 22H2 operating system, performance was recorded as follows:

• CrystalDiskMark:
  • Read: 30.57 MB/s
  • Write: 28.48 MB/s
• ATTO Disk Benchmark (64MB block):
  • Read: 30.10 MB/s
  • Write: 5.11 MB/s

From the benchmark results above, it can be seen that the sequential read and write speeds are still quite good for USB 2.0, but the low ATTO write speed indicates limitations when moving a large number of small files. This is reasonable considering the device uses a Phison PS2251 controller and KIOXIA TC58TFG8T22TA0D NAND chip, a common configuration in entry-class flash drives without DRAM cache.

Although not intended for high performance, the Verbatim Store ‘n’ Go 16GB remains an attractive option for users who want a small, inexpensive, and durable flash drive for basic purposes such as storing school documents, lightweight software, or music. Its compatibility with Windows and macOS operating systems further expands its versatility.
