While I do not have 16Gb versions of the PRO to provide stats on, if 32Gb PRO vs 32Gb EVO are any indication of relative performance (50mb test file):
32GB PRO:
Sequential Read : 86.473 MB/s
Sequential Write : 78.793 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 77.367 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 48.425 MB/s
Random Read 4KB (QD=1) : 10.255 MB/s [ 2503.7 IOPS]
Random Write 4KB (QD=1) : 2.465 MB/s [ 601.7 IOPS]
Random Read 4KB (QD=32) : 12.925 MB/s [ 3155.5 IOPS]
Random Write 4KB (QD=32) : 1.869 MB/s [ 456.2 IOPS]
32GB EVO:
Sequential Read : 44.817 MB/s
Sequential Write : 21.836 MB/s
Random Read 512KB : 43.315 MB/s
Random Write 512KB : 33.907 MB/s
Random Read 4KB (QD=1) : 10.444 MB/s [ 2549.8 IOPS]
Random Write 4KB (QD=1) : 4.109 MB/s [ 1003.1 IOPS]
Random Read 4KB (QD=32) : 10.876 MB/s [ 2655.4 IOPS]
Random Write 4KB (QD=32) : 4.107 MB/s [ 1002.7 IOPS]
And yes, the slower EVO has faster IOPS most of the time so for video/photo taking (large continuous data flows) the PRO is better choice while EVO is better for small file reading/writing (like using on a raspberry pi).
Genuine?
most Aus ebay stores selling this at around $10. Not really a bargain.
Color: Mainly Black??? I must be color blind. I know I am not colour blind though.
