Hello there!

Here are the results for the Transcend 790 32GB. It's a USB3.1 drive with a SM3267AE controller and Samsung 1x nm TLC NAND (K9ADGD8U0D).

The flashdrive comes with a FAT-optimized alignment.

The flash page is definately 16K, but I'm not sure about the block size, it's probably 4MB as I found some sources. I have anothet drive which is 2 years older, but has the same flash and probably an older revision of the controller (SM3267AB). The older one is a bit faster with small blocks, but slower with sequential operations.

I hope it is helpful for somebody.
