Im just a dude watching over my parents,
and trying to make cartoons and video games from home.

Review: ADATA AS102-16G-RGY Pro 16GB USB3.0

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.

Recommended Product, the ADATA AS102-16G-RGY is built strong with an aluminum body and has very impressive speed. Although the write speed could be a lot better. The plastic cap can potentially come loose in the front, but connecting the cap to the back is a strong fit. This drive has no activity light if that’s something you care about.

Extensive activity such as Windows Ready Boost can make this flash drive hot, but quickly cools down thank to the aluminum body.
