Review: Silicon |
We all know that technology moves forward at
such a rate that it's probably too hard to keep track of. One part of this
evolution is USB3, and I have seen USB3 flash drives that range from simply
fast, to drives that are close to SSD performance. But what happens when you
need speed, capacity, and all this in a small form factor?
Well Silicon Power offers the Jewel J06.
It's very small, can be easily hidden behind your TV, and not to take to much
space when you have plugged it in your CAR stereo for example. You will find
the Jewel J06 in different capacities, starting from 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, to 64GB,
and Silicon Power was very kind to provide me with the 64GB J06 for a full
review.
Before I start this review you might want
to take a look at their webpage and find out more about Silicon power and their products.
A quick look at the Silicon Power Jewel J06 and its specifications
The Silicon Power Jewel J06 has a slightly
different design, compared to the previous drives that I have tested, although you
will get all the basic information that you need about the SP J06 on the front
and the back of the package. Let's take a closer look at the front of the
Silicon Power Jewel J06.

Specifications
Let's take a look at the specifications of
the Silicon Power Jewel J06 64GB as they appear on the official website.
Again we see that Silicon Power gives all
the information that we need, but we still don't have any info on the speed of
the drive. We will see this in the next page of this review though when I start
testing the SP J06.
Now let's start our tests with the FAT32
file-system...
