Super Talent, which has been providing top class flash storage solutions, yesterday, became the world’s first organization to come up with a USB 3.0 flash drive.

Okay, the concept was already in our heads, agreed. But then, did anybody else make that announcement, official? Super Talent was wise enough to grab this chance and exercise its name in the pages of history.

Super Talent USB 3.0 flash drive is a SuperSpeed, USB 3.0 RAID Drive that allows transfer speeds up to ten times faster than USB 2.0 drives. If you are wondering that it will support the long-lived USB 2.0 ports or even USB 1.1 ports on your computer, the answer is YES.

The backward compatibility feature of this USB 3.0 flash drive makes this possible but everything comes at a cost. Using the USB 3.0 flash drive on a USB 2.0 port will only decrease the efficiency of the flash drive, temporarily.

Otherwise, when using a USB 3.0 port with UAS protocol,  the data transfer speed can shoot up as high as 320Mbps and if a stock USB 3.0 socket is used, speeds up to 200Mbps can be achieved. A LED indicator inscribed on the drive, tells you if it’s busy reading the data and if the device is powered on.

This USB 3.0 flash drive will soon be available in 32GB, 64GB and 128GB variants and is fully compatible with Windows 7. Price and release date are still undercover. Maybe, they are waiting until the USB 3.0 motherboards crack the shell.

Well, you can read more on it here or choose to shoot some snow flakes hiding behind the Christmas trees until it actually hits the stores.

Not more than a couple of years ago, I proudly boasted to my friends about my Kingmax 2GB memory stick, which was then the world’s smallest for 2GB.  Even now it is, only the storage capacities have increased.

We’ve seen mobile phones, cameras, watches and media players shedding the bulky form factors. Memory Storages, especially the USB Flash Drives seem to decently follow the trend. Every few days, a new type, a new shape or a new sized USB drive is launched. But, not many of them often make a remarkable statement of their own.

Small Wonder : 32 GB Pico USB Drive

Super Talent has oozed out talent by compressing sizes of memory storages. It has recently taken the credit for developing world’s smallest USB drives, an 8GB USB Drive followed by a 16GB USB drive. And, as they say, passion drives you blindly to your goal, nothing seems to stop them.

Super Talent has now developed another Pico USB Drive model that allows you to store more. They have doubled the storage capacity in the new Pico Drive – the 32GB Pico Drive. Super Talent uses a COB manufacturing process for its Pico series to achieve the smallest possible size.

A couple of years ago, I boasted off about my Kingmax 2GB flash drive, which was then the world’s smallest for 2GB.The world’s smallest USB drive (32GB variant here) is water and shock resistant and is made by compressing 32GB of NAND Flash into the same original dimensions (31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm).

It allows data transfer rates of up to 200X (30MBPS) and comes with a Polished Chrome Finish on its body. The only thing you must be afraid about is losing it and the small size takes the blame, so a chain / lanyard is also optionally included.

You can store up to 20 high quality movies or more than 40 movies (.avi files of 700MB each), innumerous songs, countless photos, millions of ebooks and much more. All this, in a thumb sized USB flash drive. What a fun.

Just very much like its siblings, the 32GB pico drive is a plug and play device, so no hassles installing or looking for software drivers. It is compatible with both Microsoft’s Windows operating systems and Apple’s Mac alike and is available starting from $85.

Six new models of 32GB Pico drives are availabe for sale now. Three new models that include AES-256 hardware encryption for the highest level of data security have also been including in the list.See the table below for pricing and details.

Some fold into the frame, some drive into a cap head, and some slide out from a rectangular bar frame but most of them have a lanyard, a rigid shape and a boring design.

But, the one I’m talking about is a whippy and flexible USB Wrist Band from USB-Hub.Yes, it’s literally whippy, sans lanyard and is easily flexible .

The USB Wrist Band is basically a flash drive which has rubber exterior that makes it flexible enough to be folded into a ring or any other shape you can think of with that.

The head side of the band fits into the other end to form a ring, which can be worn as a bracelet. If you wish to make it different, get a logo imprinted on it or just club two or more bands end-on-end to form a necklace. This will not only make a style statement but also total up the memory capacities of each drive as one disk.

Carry all your data with you whenever and whereever you go with the new USB Wristbands and see why owning a flash drive have never been such a pleasure.

These USB 2.0 Wristbands are available in different colors like Orange, Green and Yellow in two memory variants – 1 GB & 4 GB from USB-Hub for $9 and $15 respectively.
