USB 3.0 Flash Drives by Patriot Memory

I would definitely recommend the following USB 3.0 Flash Drives from Patriot Memory

• SuperSonic - 32GB and 64GB
• Pros
• Decent Read and Write Speeds
• Even under USB 2.0
• Single Chip Design
• Quad-Channel Technology
• Cons
• Cost $$$
• Requires USB 3.0 to realize full potential

• SuperSonic Magnum - 64GB and 128GB
• Pros
• Best Read and Write Speeds
• Even Under USB 2.0
• Single Chip Design
• Eight-Channel Technology
• Cons
• Cost $$$
• Requires USB 3.0 to realize full potential

• SuperSonic Pulse - 4GB, 8GB and 16GB
• Pros
• Good Read and Write Speeds
• Even under USB 2.0
• Cons
• Requires USB 3.0 to realize full potential

The drives listed above, if formatted properly, are definitely bootable from the Lenovo ThinkPad T420s and W520 via the USB 3.0 ports or through the USB 2.0 ports on the Lenovo ThinkPad X220.


Yes, that means that Windows Preinstallation Environment 3.x is bootable from a USB 3.0 flash drive provided that you have the USB 3.0 integrated into your WinPE build!!


Obviously, you can't get USB 3.0 speeds if you use UniBeast on any of drives listed above.
