On the upside, SanDisk offers a lifetime limited warranty. All up, while the Ducati licensing may be a gimmick to some, the Extreme combines excellent build quality, good speeds and an attractive design to create an appealing USB flash drive.
For its asking price, it's a little heavy, and there is no pre-installed software or applications, but overall, the Extreme Ducati Edition is a welcome entry into the market and breathes some life into the normally boring category of USB flash drives.

Expert Rating. Pros Excellent design, build quality, speed, cap-free, 4GB of storage, lifetime warranty.

But guess what? There with me everywhere I go. Even better. And with two Ducs parked in the webBikeWorld garage, it was a done deal. And guess what? I grabbed a handful of oldies and ran them through the clock and found that a MB folder containing a bunch of mixed files.
That same folder took almost twice as long — 41 seconds — to transfer to a MB USB flash drive; 49 seconds to a 1GB Memorex TravelDrive that I thought was fast and it took an excruciating 4 minutes and 12 seconds to copy the folder to the incredibly tiny, incredibly light, super-coole but super-slow 4GB Sony Micro Vault Tiny see photos below.
It took an unreal 40 seconds just to delete the folder from the Sony, and virtually no time at all to delete it from the other drives, which now relegates the Micro Vault Tiny to the archives. I mean thin. It weighs 57 grams 2 oz. The drive comes with a thin imprinted neck strap that does nothing to lighten it up. But you know what? The heft makes it feel special. Besides the speed, the drive has a retractable USB connector. Ducati and SanDisk are both dedicated to maximum performance, making the partnership a perfect fit.
Their marketing materials say that the company plans to work closely with the wider photographic MotoGP community. SanDisk Extreme III and IV memory cards make my job easier, because I know I can shoot as rapidly as possible without worrying about losing that once-in-a lifetime image.
