Sandisk Extreme USB stick - now removable not fixed
#1
WARNING: The Sandisk Extreme disk as recommended is now set up as a removable disk not a fixed disk, and so cannot be used for EUFI.    You can still use it in legacy BIOS mode.

 I was sceptical of its speed claims, but on a website, it said if you are copying from/to an SSD drive via USB3, then you can get close to the maximum speeds claimed 100 MB(ytes)/s write, and 245 MB/S read.

I tried it on my laptop which has an ssd as main drive, and I got 98.5 MB/s read and 210 MB/S read i.e. pretty close to claims.  The USB does get pretty warm though - I wonder about long term usage of this.
