Conclusion
The EZ Drives are something special. They have an exotic design, mixed with a bit of class. The twister drives have a sturdy durable plastic shell on which the designs are placed on and the Pro has an aluminum shell. Combine that with good performance and excellent storage capacity and you have an excellent range of products. The speed at which these drives read and write is good and won't have you waiting for the drive to finish. Even when the drive is split up and you are using the unlocked security area, the speed is still excellent. Whether you twist or slide the drive, the USB connector is well protected from grime and dirt. The Twisters twist the USB connector inward and conceal the connector; the Pro slides the connector back and forth inside the shell. It's hard to find a con with these products, it really is. The only thing I can think of is the write-protect switch and right away I know it's not really a con either, it's a matter of perspective. Either you find it hard to flip the switch to make it write-protected or you find it hard to flip the switch to make it write-enabled. Do you see my point? I'm not going to list it either way.
