    Here's a 64GB USB 3 stick, NTFS.

    Wolfgang I was going to get ATTO but they have a long registration form to download it, so I passed.

    I never had this problem. Use the Softpedia link that Hoppy posted.

    I also tried the ATTO home site. Disk Benchmark | ATTO
    I'm not sure what the registration is for either other than support.

    Either way Softpedia is the easiest.

    Cool, thanks Mikemeister.
    Here's the same USB 3 flash drive.

    It looks a bit slower than mine, but then it is still pretty fast. I paid $60 at Newegg for my 16GB. I thought that was expensive, but wanted the fastest for 'Windows 8 on the go'.

    Here's my 64 GBs Voyager GT USB 3.0 benchmark, FAT32 formatted:

    It does slap around HDDs, but doesn't even come close to SATA 2.0 SSDs.

    Windows 7 cannot format larger than 32 GBs drives with FAT32 file system, called eFAT in MS terminology. This is a Microsoft imposed formatting limitation, it can mount FAT32 partitions upto around 2 TBs. The Linux Live CD, or iMAC have no such formatting limitation. Nice going MS, forcing me to download disk formatting utility just to format a flashdrive...

    Both are FAT32.
    This CrystalDiskMark froze the whole machine wile doing the USB 2 pendrive in the USB 3 slot. It would not even reboot, I had to do a hard shutdown. Think I'll quit using that one.

    I just upgraded the firmware in my OCZ Vertex 4 SSD. Made a big difference. The original firmware was 1.3 (what the SSD came with) and it has been updated to 1.5. Ignore the different drive letters, that was because I had to reinstall the drive from an Acronis Backup and it was assigned a different drive letter in Windows 7. The drive is my Win 8 OS drive.

    My Intel SSD (my Win 7 OS drive) is also included.

    That made a pretty good difference Fireberd. I know there are others with a Vertex 4, if they are having issues with their speeds, they might want to look into a firmware upgrade too.

    Thankfully mine came with version 1.5, but I was ready to update before it arrived.
