i have purchased a lot of PNY products over the years & have yet to experience any problems nor encounter any difficultys ... as a matter of fact, i still have my first flash drive ; a PNY with a whole big 1gb of storage LOL !!! and if i recall correctly, that little bad boy cost $10 !!! but it still works perfectly and i cannot remember how many linux live distros i have installed on it nor the sheer amount of apps i have loaded in it thru the years ... PNY quality is like the steak-sauce : A-1 ... God bless you all @ PNY & thx 4 the gr8 products !!!

PNY - Compact Attaché 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive - Black/White
Store your music, movies, videos, files and more with this PNY Compact Attaché 8GB flash drive that features a USB 2.0 interface for fast connections and a compact design that enables easy portability.
Can Best Buy find/sell me an 8GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive that performs at or near 190MBs per sec. R/W transfer speeds?.. And if so, for how much?
If possible., Keeping any search efforts for this item limited to my specific description above.(or closest alternative) works for me.
By doing so, can hopefully keep my price point down to a minimum. "No Bling is a good thing" if you follow my meaning.
Just to be more specific.., One (new) 8GB - USB 3.0 - Flash Drive, supporting data transfer rates in the area of: Read-180MBs/Write-180MBps., plus or minus - 20MBs, is acceptable.
My intention of use:
Install my O.S.'s boot record in the above USB 3.0 Flash Drive, allowing me to effectively boot up Windows externally.
Better known as an "external boot device..," A USB 3.0 boot option should be faster than the standard "Primary Drive" scenario, freeing up my currently installed, SSD/SATA, formerly applied as an "internal boot drive."
This allows for the SSD drive taking the role as C: Primary Drive, etc.
This is why a smaller capacity, faster transfer rate, flash drive, is desired for my needs.
Thank you for any results you can provide. Positive results can lead towards purchase.
Note...
I would be interested in seeing your closest results for the USB item I described, even though it may not be within my exact description.
Only for the chance that it may fall into a tolerable compromise for purchase.
Again,
Thank you.

the sandisk extreme series of usb 3.0 flash drives will satisfy your thirst, but i question that it would be any faster than a good SSD... also, from a point of security, would there not be a compromise as the UEFI would not be an integral part of that setup oln the USB since it is @ the hardware level ? lemme throw this atcha : i have a gateway ne56r34u notebook w/ 8gb PNY RAM & and a 120gb PNY SSD running windoze 10 tech prevu + it cold-boots (from off NOT sleep) in 7-seconds ... whatever u do, many blessings + i hope u get your machine 2 do what u want it 2 do !!!
(btw, PNY also makes a line of superfast usb 3.0 drives called turbo)
