The DataTraveler Ultimate is a USB 3.0 memory stick, and a rather ungainly one at that. Its thickness, both horizontally and vertically, is quite a concern, potentially blocking other peripherals from reaching the ports beside it. We're not exactly sure why it's so chunky: the Patriot Supersonic manages just fine while being USB 3.0.
It is, otherwise, a bog-standard memory stick. We tested it against CrystalDiskMark, using the random data test to see what it could do.
It's great to have the speed of USB 3.0, but the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 is just too chunky to wholeheartedly recommend. Check out the Patriot Supersonic instead.
