Great flash drive, mediocre software

I am very impressed with the flash drive that came with this software package. After testing its performance, it is found to have a blazing read speed of 31 MB/s and a decent write speed of 5 MB/s. Compared to the many cheap standalone flash drives on the market, the read speed is probably 4-6 times faster and the write speed is about the same. The miniscule size of the drive makes it perfect for a keyring. The tiny drive is inside a credit card sized sleeve that you see in the box.

The software interface is not very attractive. There are a lot of features which do not seem necessary and it installed a difficult-to-remove CA browser toolbar which impedes surfing speed and ease. Without a virus-laden computer to test it on I cannot comment on its performance. The program uses an acceptable amount of memory and does not seem to slow down the computer. Users of older machines may only achieve normal performance after turning off optional program features.

I definitely would not suggest buying this software at retail price, but rather watch for the frequent rebates on this and other CA products. The flash drive is certainly the redeeming quality of this product and is definitely worth keeping for general use.
