Data-transfer rates are published at 6 MBps/write and 9 MBps/read. However, our tests with a 42-MB image file came in at a mere 1.45 MBps/write and a substantial 10-MBps/read, whether we were going from the public partition or from the secure one.
Although pricey compared with devices of similar capacity, the ClipDrive Bio offers good data security, as well as a number of immunities from ESD, RF and voltage-based irregularities. All drives have an integrated pocket clip and port shield, and ship with drivers, a cleaning cloth, a lanyard, a padded belt-clip case and a nifty USB extension/minidocking station.
