Hi-speed USB2 Flash Drive Round-Up

An anonymous reader writes "Ars Technica has a USB 2.0 Flash drive review featuring 8 drives from different manufacturers. What's so interesting about the review is that not all Flash drives are created equal. Some have very unique features while some are clearly better than others. They also took a detailed look inside one of the drives as well as put two drives in a RAID-0 array (a la Mac OS X). Now that's cool!"

    how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
    3.) You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-bidding Americans

    4.) You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.
    5.) You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by

    demand.
    8.) You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments

    All you got out of that review is the fact that they decided to use Mac OS X to do the RAID?

    I fail to see how it can be classified as zealotry, at any rate. It's not like they said that Linux sucks or anything. Here. Let me click my jolly, candy-like button and see how fast my knee can jerk to your bait.
