UltraDrive Wins TechARP Reviewers' Choice Award
No matter what test we threw at it, the UltraDrive GX was much faster than even the fastest 10,000 RPM hard disk drive at our disposal, the superb Western Digital VelociRaptor. It was actually over 29X faster in small random reads and 6X faster in small random writes!

UltraDrive GX Shines in Toms Hardware SSD Roundup
...it delivered strong throughput and PCMark Vantage application results. At the same time, power consumption numbers were better than average, making the GX strong on performance per watt both for streaming and I/O operations. Setting I/O performance aside, Super Talent manages to deliver slightly more than other SSDs based on the same Indilinx controller. Super Talent’s long list of firmware updates demonstrates how much progress is going on in the SSD arena.

Pico 32GB Wins a Fan and the OCIA Gold Award
Super Talent did not disappoint with the Pico series of flash memory drives. Elegant lines, practical size, and functional security make the Pico a hard deal to beat. Even though the drive I tested is a special edition model with a suggested retail price of $99, I found it for $89 at a few places around the web, which make an excellent price point for a 32gb encrypted thumb drive.
I really like the looks and size of the drive. It is not too often that you find hardware that doubles as jewelry. The SecureLock encryption definitely makes you feel more secure, and the amount of data you can pack on this smaller-than-a-quarter drive is truly remarkable. The rugged nature of the Pico lends itself to those of us that like our gear to be rough-and-tumble, able to take a beating with the faith that it will work when you need it.

UltraDrive Shines in 18-SSD Shootout, Captures Price-Performance Award
Over 150 MB/s writing and well over 200 MB/s reading, ...The 128GB models deliver even higher values, The [Ultra Drive] scrapes the 200 MB/s mark while writing. For comparison: Western Digital's Velociraptor achieved around 108 MB/s Read-write as. All these are indeed only quite theoretical values, but are confirmed by our copy test: An Ultra Drive pounds the Velociraptor in practice. Anyway, when you start and work with programs it is faster - an advantage resulting from The ultra fast access, and is difficult to express in figures.
