Earth Friendly (Yay), Performance, Size, The Slidy Thing, Great Software Included
Choking Hazard (joke) None!
Overall the ATP EarthDrive USB Flash Drive is awesome. It is a very decent price and you don’t get that nasty guilty feeling for ruining the earth. Pollution equals bad I am told. For purely selfish reasons I would actually use this because it perfo...
Abstract: The sheer number of USB drives on the market today can most certainly make your head spin, offering just about anything under the sun to suit your needs, from rugged to tiny, flashy to even just downright weird. But one thing we haven’t seen until now...
Fully recyclable, Good performance, Small size, Sturdy build quality, waterproof
Low availability in North America
Often, when a product is marketed for a certain special feature, it suffers in other aspects. The ATP EarthDrive is not one of those products. In addition to being the worlds first recyclable USB drive, it also performs well. With read speeds just shy...
Small Form Factor, Biodegradable and “Earth Friendly”, Great Sliding Mechanism, Supports Bootable Linux Installation, Survived aliencam’s Chop Shop
LED Too Bright, Glossy Finish Gets Scratched, Conclusion, I very much liked this flash drive. It is small enough to not be a bother if you carry it everywhere, and rugged enough to survive most accidents (functionally survive, not aesthetically). The driv...
I very much liked this flash drive. It is small enough to not be a bother if you carry it everywhere, and rugged enough to survive most accidents (functionally survive, not aesthetically). The drive also is visually appealing, the tuxedo black and whit...

Abstract: Imagine this in the near future: while separating the bottles and cans from paper products in the recycling bin, we may also need to set aside some old flash drives. That, at least, is part of the goal put forth by memory manufacturer ATP, which sells ...
The ATP EarthDrive performed above and beyond our expectations. With the environment as crazy as it is, Im glad to see a company combining performance with a "Green" conscience. Sporting an average read speed of 30MB/sec, we see some of the best flas...
Abstract: Overall then, whether these particular offerings will interest you depends largely on your own requirements for a USB flash drive, but if either the ToughDrive or EarthDrive catches your eye then you can expect a solid, dependable and fast piece of hardware, which is all you can ask of any flash drive really.
