It would be almost impossible to find
someone that hasn't used a product from Kingston, and even harder to find someone
that hadn't thought of buying something that has the Kingston name on it. So
there is no need to make an introduction, but you can find everything you need
to know about Kingston and their products simply by clicking here.

We all remember the HyperX series,
especially their SSD's that have amazing performance and also an excellent
value for their price. Kingston continues to use the HyperX name on various
high performance products, from RAM, SSD's, USB3 Flash drives, to headsets.
This time I am not looking at an SSD from Kingston, but a very fast USB3 flash
drive, the HyperX 3.0, and this is one of the fastest drives that Kingston has
to offer, the drive is also very attractive, it has a mixture of metal and
rubber casing. 

Kingston kindly provided me the
DataTraveler HyperX 3.0 flash drive for a review, so let's start this review by
taking a look on at the packaging and the drive.

Specifications

Let's take a look at the specifications of
the Kingston HyperX 3.0 64GB as they appear on the official website.

 

We can see that the HyperX 3.0 is available
in three sizes. The Kingston HyperX also has some very impressive read and
write speeds, and according to Kingston, the HyperX can reach a maximum read
speed of 225MB/Sec and 135MB/Sec on write.

Now it's time to put the flash drive o the
test, and see if it can deliver what Kingston promises. So let's start our
tests
