Patriot Memory Stellar Boost XT 64GB USB 3.0 OTG Drive Review

Storage/Other by stefan @ 2014-11-11

The new Stellar Boost XT drive from Patriot Memory has quite a small footprint and also features a durable rubberized chassis. The read performance of the drive is very good, nearing 150MB/s in our tests, while the writes are in the 35MB/s area, quite close to the best performing USB 2.0 drives. These speeds are more than enough for maxing out the transfers when connected to our favorite smartphone/tablet which supports OTG for doing backups, watching Full HD content and many other activities.

Conclusive Thoughts

The new Stellar Boost XT drive from Patriot Memory has quite a small footprint and also features a durable rubberized chassis; the connectors are carefully protected by separate covers and are tethered to the body of the product so we won’t lose them during travel.

 

The read performance of the drive is very good, nearing 150MB/s in our tests, while the writes are in the 35MB/s area, quite close to the best performing USB 2.0 drives. These speeds are more than enough for maxing out the transfers when connected to our favorite smartphone/tablet which supports OTG for doing backups, watching Full HD content and many other activities.

 

For the rendered performance, we think that the 64GB drive is priced fair at about 47 Euros. Of course, we can also choose from the models which sport lower storage capacities: 32GB for about 28 Euros or 16GB for about 21 Euros.
