Product Description
Optima Pro Attache USB 2.0 Flash Drive was designed with Windows Vista in mind and works in conjunction with SuperFetch intelligent caching to enhance system performance for quicker startup and windows multi-tasking. You can get a boost in system responsiveness without upgrading internal components such as processors or RAM. You can define the amount of storage you want to allocate toward ReadyBoost and how much you want to use for traditional storage, so Optima Pro Attache still makes a great solution to capture, store, and share digital images, music, games and documents.

 survived washing machine November 24, 2008
I lost this and have been looking for it for over a month. Then I washed some of my cargos and when I pulled them out I saw it lying, CAP OFF, (I found the cap weeks ago) in the bottom of the washing machine. ARGHHHHH....I thought, there is no way this things works, all my files will be ruined. NOPE. Popped this baby into the laptop and she works perfectly! Opened several files to make sure. Another plus is when you do have the cap on, heh heh, it fits snugly.
Exactly what it's supposed to be October 11, 2008

This is my second PNY flash drive, and I bought it as an upgrade from a 512 MB model that still works flawlessly after five or six years. This one is smaller -- about the size of an ordinary pinky finger, where the old one was about the size of an index finger. Unlike the old one, the cap now fits on the tail end of the stick, making it harder to lose. In terms of functionality, the 8 GB model now has the "readyboost" feature, but beyond that, it works the same, and a month of steady use has gone without a hitch on both Windows XP and Vista computers (I haven't tried it yet on a Mac).
I have allocated 4gb to the "readyboost" feature on my Vista computer. This slows down its initial response time when I plug it into that computer (it takes maybe 5 seconds to recognize the drive, instead of 2), but it's very fast after that. I can't tell that the readyboost feature is improving my computer's processing speed, but it might help more on a slower computer.
Some users have complained that once they allocate space to readyboost, they can't change it, but it's actually easy to do -- just right-click on the drive on your desktop (or in your folders) and click "properties." There's a tab there to change your readyboost allocation. Others have complained that it feels cheap or fragile, but I honestly have no idea what they mean. Mine seems solidly built.
In addition to these drives, I use PNY SD cards in my digital camera, and so far, every PNY product I've bought works exactly as advertised. In my view, they offer the best ratio of price to value (meaning both quality and memory size) in flash memory. Highly recommended.
Love it, love it, love it! September 27, 2008
Hi --
Love it, love it, love it!
My cat took off with the cap to my 8GB. I think it went down an air vent.
Please send 2 caps in case it happens again.
Thanks so much!

Items was exactly what I was looking for, enough space for everything I need to move between work and home. I love PNY drives I have had sizes from 256 MB to 4 GB, and they perform great.
Excellent shipping time and Excellent product : August 24, 2008
Received this in a very fast time, and it was packaged very well also.
I am very happy with Amazon and the supplier, very good... M.S NY
