The world's first USB flash drive with 1 terabyte

No one can say that USB drives, having a capacity of 1 TB is something exotic: Victorinox presented the appropriate product about a year ago, and drives Transcend, whose volume is two times more than was seen in early September 2011.

Despite this, Kingston found it possible to say that the first starts the supply of the serial drives, the volume of which is 1 TB, using USB 3.0 interface. Product series DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 can be offered with option of 512 MB, it is daily sold in the US for $1750. You should imagine that terabyte drive that will release before the end of this quarter will cost about $3400.

 




On dimensions the novelty is not very different from many mid-size USB flash drives: 72 x 27 x 21 mm not given the mounting ring. When working with a USB 3.0 interface read speed reaches up to 260 MB/s and write up to 160 MB/s. it Remains backward compatible with USB 2.0, but the speed of information transmission in this case, deteriorating to 30 MB/s. Drives use the file system exFAT.
