nsane.forums Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 DataTraveler line promises speeds up to 80MB/s Kingston Technologies has introduced a new line of flash drives for the USB 3.0 format. The company said that the new DataTraveler line would support speeds up to 80MB/s in USB 3.0 systems and speeds of up to 20MB/s on USB 2.0 hardware. Available in 16, 32 and 64GB formats, the drives will cost £56.80 £88.40 and £172.80, respectively. The drives will sport a considerable girth for flash drives, with a case nearly 3 inches long and 0.86 inches tall. Kingston hopes that the drives will appeal to owners of a growing number of USB 3.0-equipped systems. The format saw its first devices ship just under one year ago. "USB 3.0 is the next major milestone in flash memory for USB products and the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 is our first USB 3.0 flash drive offering in the marketplace" said Kingston EMEA flash development manager Steve Hall. "We have run several internal tests to demonstrate the speed of the new drives, for example a 1 hour 44 minute movie [3.9GB] was transferred to the DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 drive in 1 minute 13 seconds." The company is demonstrating the new drives at the 2010 IDF in San Francisco. View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
