The drive itself seems to be plenty fast compared to my older 2GB USB drive. CrystalDiskMark benchmark shows nearly 31 MB/s sequential and 512k read and 12.5MB/s sequential write which actually exceeds the Lexar's stated specs - how often do you see that? By comparison, this is 5-6x faster than my 2GB USB drive, and is even respectable compared to some older SATA drives. For my uses (easily portable storage), this drive will be a nice improvement in capacity and speed over my old drive. I was worried this drive would be huge, but it is similar in size to my old drive, and the retractable USB plug is a nice touch that makes it more compact.
Admittedly I am not interested in their backup software as I have a backup solution for my entire system (which would not fit on 16GB), and that software is probably why this drive carries a cost premium over similarly sized drives. For that reason (and for my purposes) if I were to need another drive I would probably choose a different, cheaper drive. However, if you do not have a backup solution and 16GB (or one of their larger drives) works for your setup, this may be a good solution for you. You can find the manual for the backup software on their website (here is a direct link, hopefully Amazon won't delete it: [...].). It comes with both Windows (including Win 7) and Mac versions of the software, a nice touch.
The drive is focused on backup, so it does not have any security for files you drag and drop onto the drive (like they have for some of their other drives), but you can password protect backups using their backup software.
