Not quite. 320MB/s would be faster.
I won't bore you with the details, this conclusion stems from a few years of experience in the field.
Seriously, what? I don't get what sparked the question. Edit: Burn seems to have cleaned it up.

Totally different scenario when loading/unloading it from RAM though.

If I get the 128GB version I could stick about half of my Steam folder on there for some super fast load times on both my PC and laptop

Even if its theoretical performance is 320MB/s, no way it's going to reach that over USB 2.0 (which tops out at 480Mb/s = 60MB/s). USB 3.0 perhaps?

Flash is getting rediculous, this just as rediculous as Sandisk's 64GB CF cards that have 90MB/s Read/Write speeds

Still an improvement over current external, USB powered drives.

This would decimate all if we were able to store an OS on external flash drives.
