ADATA UV131 16GB Review
Important!
Dear visitors,
This blog and the Tigarus.com network will be changing our website software in May (2024). There will be some down time and there will be a change to the webpage addresses.
We will also be removing the Anime blogs. The Rocksmith Songs website will be unavailable of a few weeks or months while I move the database to the new software.
At the moment we are running on Wordpress, the new software is an in-house project which is 57 times faster. It will also provide more freedom for development.
Thank you for understanding.
Verdict: Recommend
ADATA makes some great USB flash drives, and the UV131 is definitely one of their best value drives. Although the 16GB drive retails at about 12.98, I got mine on sale for 7.99. At this price the value is hard to beat. The UV131 series features a stylus, small, and sturdy design with performance just below the S102 Pro series.

The UV131 is built strong, and small enough so it does not obstruct other USB ports. The drive is cap less and connects to USB ports with a bit of a tight fit. The fit is so tight, this drive will never fall out.
Performance is good for a value drive with read speeds of 116MB/s, however, this drive has mixed write speeds. For small files (approximately below 25MB) the write speed is about 60MB/s, but for large files you can expect an average of 11MB/s.
USB 3.0 Benchmarks
Left: We see that small files transfer fast.
Right: We see that large files transfer slowly.
Here we see at the start of the transfer we had speeds of around 60MB/s, but dropped down to 11MB/s.
Conclusion: The UV131 is a great buy, however, the write speed could be a little better.
