The 64 GB OCZ Enyo was very fast at small 4 KB sequential accesses. Surprisingly, its write speed was much higher than its read speed. Either way, it was a mile ahead of its competitors.

In the USB 2.0 mode, the OCZ Enyo was faster than its competitors but the gap between it and the Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 narrowed significantly to just 10%.

This is the most important test if you intend to use the OCZ Enyo as a large flash drive. It is twice as fast as the Kingston DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 at reads and 60% faster at writes. Even when used with a USB 2.0 port, the OCZ Enyo was faster than the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0, just with a smaller difference.
