OCZ Roadster USB Flash Drive Review
APH Networks has posted a review on the OCZ Roadster USB Flash Drive

In terms of design and diversity of USB flash drives to accommodate different needs, OCZ has been leading in this market for quite a while now -- especially among enthusiasts. A large contribution to OCZ's success in the flash memory market can be associated with their aggressive pricing schemes -- you can easily purchase a nice OCZ drive at decent capacity for around 30 dollars at major online retailers -- and that's quite a steal to most people. However, unlike their high performance and low latency memory, it seems that it's this very area has been plaguing all of OCZ's flash drives after the original OCZ Rally. As we've seen in the OCZ Rally2 as an indication of decent performance but high latencies, as well as the impressively sized OCZ Mini-Kart with semi-decent performance but again high latencies, how will OCZ's new Roaster USB thumb drive perform in both design and file performance? Let's dig into every aspect with our review today.
