USB Flash drives have seriously evolved over the past few years, these ultra-portable data storage solutions becoming smaller and smaller as the storage capacities increased. And this evolutionary trend is also visible in the device you're about to see as follows, namely the USB Card from InnoDisk, a flash drive that provides a complete range of storage capacities in a very small and portable form factor.
Thus, the InnoDisk USB Card is extremely portable, measuring around 40 x 17 x 4.6 mm, at a weight of around 3 grams, while its non-metal (resin) housing gives even greater endurance than regular USB flash drives.
One of the most important features in the case of any portable storage solution is represented by the storage capacity, and the InnoDisk USB Card offers a little something for everybody, as it is available in 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB and 4 GB versions (entry-level / mid-range, according to today's standards). As most other devices of this type available on the market, the drive connects to a host computer via an USB 2.0 interface, which means that it can attain data transfer speeds of up to 480 Mbps.
The device from InnoDisk is quite versatile, being compatible with the most popular operating systems around, namely Windows XP Professional / Home Edition, Windows 2000 Profession, Windows Me, Windows 98SE and Mac OS 9.0 and higher (probably Linux as well), which means that this thing will probably work with just about any computer out there. Furthermore, it also comes packed with partitioning software, as well as a security application (data password protection).
The devices from the InnoDisk USB Card series are not exactly outrageously expensive, the 1 GB model, for example, retailing for around 20 US dollars, which is a pretty fair price for this type of devices. |
