I've got 2 of the Rally2 16 giggers, nice little thumb drives. Also have a couple older 4 giggers.

Been using only the OCZ dual data channel Rally's for a couple of years.

Well, performant SLC drives tap out at 8GB, so you're looking at MLC- based
devices only.

The 32GB OCZ Rally2 is pretty much the fastest in that capacity.

So anyone been able to find out the straight dope on this? It seems to
me
that reviews need to get into SLC vs MLC (SLC being faster but not as
big as
the MLC ones) and maybe even what controller chip they use, as that
might
affect performance too, but no one (at least in reviews I've found)
seem to
get into that level of detail on a regular basis.

...



Any recommendations based on what people have and links to back that
up?
I've considering spending the cash to get up to 32GB, as that becomes a
good
backup solution, and could be persuaded to 64GB if there's some
significant
performance gain to it.
