Portable USB drives have become a preferred way of storing digital files that you wish to bring along anywhere you go. But most of the USB drives available today seem to follow a generic design that makes them quite common and without that touch of uniqueness. The same can’t be said with the new DataTraveler Mini Fun G2 USB Drive from Kingston.

The Kingston DataTraveler Mini Fun G2, does not look like your usual USB drive. They are designed with bright and fun colors for its rugged silicon rubber housing. Each USB drive is color coded according to storage capacity and can be snapped together to create original shapes. They are available in 2GB (light/dark green), 4GB (light/dark blue) and 8GB (black/red) versions. You can check them out at Kingston although no pricing information is yet available for it from its authorized resellers.

LaCie FastKey SSD USB 3.0 delivers up to 260MB/s speeds in a tiny profile 0 komentar

It doesn’t take more than a couple of minutes to have files transferred to and fro most flash drives when working in bulk. It’s with the much lighter and lesser data that these few minutes seem long. LaCie suggests having a look at its very new SSD USB 3.0 drive, FastKey to take care of that. It reaches a maximum delivery speed of 260MB/s and is just 26cm3 in size.

Transfer speeds will be the least among users’ worries with this new SSD drive. In a design that makes it tiny enough to sit in the palm, the drive is reportedly capable of transferring 1000 mp3 or five DivX files under 60s. Performing nearly 10 times faster than traditional USB 2.0, the coupled SSD USB 3.0 capability of the drive along with the DRAM cache technology allows fast behavior.

“With most flash drives, transferring a large number of photos and mp3 files can take a few minutes,” commented Luc Pierart, Business Unit Manager, Personal Storage, LaCie. “With the Fastkey, transferring small files is immediate. You can back up or share your music and photo libraries as you head out the door.”

The sleek drive is just about 26cm3 in size which is complemented by the powerful solid-state flash technology. Encased by a sturdy aluminum cover, data is both safe and mobile. With no space wasted the flash drive bundles in a capacity of around 120GB. The strap should allow users to fasten the drive to a keychain or bag minus any hassles.

While the tailoring ensures users’ data is protected externally, the internal makeup of the drive also safeguards content. The included AES 256-bit encryption software maintains data security. All users need to do is pick the amount of capacity that they wish encrypt. They can then reach it via custom password. The drive’s entire capacity can also be encrypted for complete privacy. Wuala’s 4GB secure online storage gives users added storage and sharing options.

Available in 30GB, 60GB and 120GB storage capacities, the LaCie FastKey is offered at a price starting from $149.99. [http://www.techshout.com]

USB Mass Storage – Super Talent Drops the Price on USB 3.0 Flash Drives 0 komentar

Flash drives are fairly cheap these days unless you opt for one with some crazy bells and whistles like built-in self destruct and full MILSPEC specifications. However, USB 3.0 has changed that, and not for the better. Since the introduction of this new, faster technology, we’ve seen the price of those ubiquitous little drives jump significantly. However, one retailer refuses to bend to peer pressure. In fact, Super Talent may have just set the bar for USB 3.0 Flash Drive prices and you’ll be happy to note that it’s very low.

The company is offering their Express Duo line of USB 3.0 Flash Drives in 8Gb and 16GB configurations with a price tag of $14 and $29 respectively. That’s cheaper than some USB 2.0 drives on the market right now. And the drives are robust and full-featured. Not only do you get full USB 3.0 speed, but you get USB 2.0 reverse compatibility so you’re free to buy now and upgrade later.

And not that style is the deciding factor in any tech purchase (though it probably is more often that it should be) these puppies look pretty darned sweet to boot. That slick gun metal grey and faux-lighter design would look great on any executive’s desk.

Kingston’s New SSD Drive Tops 96GB 0 komentar

If your PC doesn’t have a solid state drive (SSD) your next one probably will. With no moving parts, there is far less chance for a physical failure which leads to costly repairs and data loss. Kingston introduced their new SSD (a 96GB model) earlier this month to much fanfare. But what would you, the end user, really get out of it?

How about a 25% performance boost over their older models? If that’s not good enough for you, how about the respectable price tag of just $290?

That’s right, the new V+100 outdoes the old SSDNow models by 25 percent and is wallet-friendly. Another great feature is the always on garbage collections. This service constantly monitors your drive and recycles unused data automatically. This drastically cuts down on the amount of errors you’ll run into and improve the performance of your PC in general.

If the $290 price tag is still too big for you, you can get a 64GB model for just $220. And if 96GB sounds too small for all of your data, you can grab a 512GB version but be prepared to drop almost 2 grand on that bad boy.

Koleksi USB Flash Disk Unik 0 komentar

USB flash disk adalah perangkat pendukung pekerjaan kantoran yang lumrah ditemukan saat ini. Tak cuma punya bentuk yang keren atau lucu, flash disk bahkan dibuat dalam bentuk unik yang jarang ditemui. Contohnya adalah 10 USB flash disk berikut ini.

1. USB Shrimp
Perhatian: USB flash disk unik ini bukan untuk dimakan! Sekalipun bentuknya membuat MDers meneguk air liur, tetapi USB Shrimp memang adalah sebuah gadget. MDers bisa membeli USB 2.0 yang berkapasitas 256Mb ini melalui SollidAlliance (asal Jepang) atau Journaldugeek (asal Perancis).


2. Bear Drive
Entah karena benar-benar pecinta (atau sebaliknya, sangat tidak menyukai) Teddy Bear, Posterous mengenalkan USB flash disk unik ini. Meski tanpa ceceran darah, namun Bear Drive tak urung membuat anak-anak kecil menjadi takut melihat penggunaannya. Pasalnya, MDers harus mencopot kepala beruang itu sebelum USB digunakan.


3. Takoyaki
Masih ingat masakan Jepang bernama Takoyaki? Ini dia, USB Flash Disk unik yang memancing rasa lapar. Dinamai sama dengan produk aslinya, Takoyaki USB flash disk bakal membuat PC atau laptop Anda lebih berwarna.


4. Flash Drive with Micro Pump
USB flash disk unik ini akan mengembang sesuai jumlah data yang MDers isikan di dalamnya. Sayangya soal kapasitas penyimpanan cenderung minim, mengikuti namanya "Micro".


5. Big Tiki Drive
Nah, kalau MDers masih berminat mengoleksi USB flash disk unik berkaitan dengan masakan Jepang, silahkan mencoba USB berbentuk Big Tiki ini.


6. True FlashBag
Lalu bagi MDers yang gemar berbelanja, sudah saatnya mengganti USB MDers dengan USB flash disk unik bernama True Flashbang ini.


7. Rusted USB Drive
Sedang untuk MDers yang gemar benda-benda klasik, aksesoris berkaitan dengan "hal-hal kuno" mungkin jadi perhatian lebih, dan sangat menarik untuk dikumpulkan. Sepertinya hal ini pula yang mendorong Rusted USBk diciptakan. Dengan bentuk besi berkarat, tak semua orang ingin membeli USB flash disk unik ini, bukan?


8. The Thumb Drive
"Acungkan jempol Anda, dan colokkan The Thumb ke socket USB." Ada yang aneh? Mungkin saja, karena USB flash disk unik bernama The Thumbs ini memang sangat mirip ibu jari tangan.


9. Necklace Drive
Kalung akan MDers kenakan ke mana-mana saat bepergian. Begitu pula dengan USB flash disk unik bernama Necklace Drive ini. Tanpa takut terlupa, flash disk ini akan setia menggantung di leher MDers. Namun jika kalung biasa juga MDers kenakan saat mandi, kalung flas disk ini sebaiknya tidak dikenakan.


10. F-1 Car USB Drive
Di mana Grand Prix berlangsung, di situ pula penjual aksesoris merajalela. Tak terkecuali penjual USB flash disk unik ini. Dinamai F-1 Car USB Drive, MDers pasti cukup senang mendapat USB berbentuk mobil F1 ini tentunya. Sesuai kecepatan mobil F1, USB flash disk unik ini dipasangi memori sebesar 8Gb.

Monday is the laziest day of the week. That’s why, after thinking in finding a way to remove the boredom, we decided to search for some cool new gadgets and make a strong collection so you to have something nice to read in 10 minutes of your Monday morning, before reaching your work place. So here they are!

A Posable Funboy Web Camera would be a fun companion for your video conversations over the Internet. It would maintain a nice smile on your face and allow you to change its position anyway you like.
The built-in web camera has a 350 kilopixel CMOS sensor with 1.3MP software interpolated and microphone, while the image resolution reaches 640 x 480 pixels at up to 30 frames per second and 24-bit true color.
It features USB 2.0 connectivity via a 90-cm long cable, Windows Vista and Mac support, while measuring 115 x 80 x 50 mm.
We haven’t tested it to see the image quality but we assume it’s an entry level model, as it costs just 10.27 EUR.

Instead of the boy you might like a Posable Robot Web Camera. Both models are designed in such a way to look funny but in the same time to provide flexibility, allowing you to set it according to your position in front of the PC. The robot camera features 360-degree adjustment and has the same characteristics as the previous model described, with support for Skype and MSN live conversations.

Review FlashDisk Transcend JetFlash T3 0 komentar

Apa yang anda pertimbangkan saat akan membeli Usb FlashDisk ? Umumnya kita akan menjawab " model ". Memang tak bisa dipungkiri kalau saat kita ingin membeli sesuatu yang pertama kita lihat pastilah sisi luar dari barang tersebut. Usb flashdisk bukan lagi memiliki fungsi hanya sebatas media penyimpanan tetapi juga bisa menjadi salah satu barang asesoris pemakainya.

Saat ini saya membutuhkan usb yang secara fisik yang ukuranya mungil karena sebelumnya saya mengalami peristiwa yang tidak meng-enakan dengan usb yang berukuran jombo seperti flashdisk adata seri RB yang rusak akibat terjepit notebook saat saya membuka layar lcd notebook lebih dari sudut 100 derajat sedangkan flashdisk tersebut saya tancapkan di bagian belakang notebook tersebut.
untuk kinerja tentu saja saya menginginkan flashdisk dengan kecepata daya baca dan tulis terterbesar. Untuk mengetahui seberapa cepat usb berkerja sangatlah sulit kalau hanya dengan melihat bentuk dari usb flashdisk tersebut kalau tanpa dilakukan pengujian. Lain hal kalau anda sering membaca review review baik dari majalah atau dari internet seperti blog saya ini :) tentu anda bisa dengan gampang untuk mengetahui flashdisk mana saja yang memiliki kinerja terbaik dan terburuk.

Di hari sabtu tangal 10 januari kemarin saya mencoba untuk berburu flashdisk ke daerah harko glodok
tetapi saya tidak menemukan flashdisk yang saya inginkan karena flashdisk yg saya cari sepertinya didaerah pusat hardware disana tidak tersedia. Setelah lelah mencari disana saya coba pergi kedaerah pinangsia Plaza tetapi disana juga tidak ada, karena tidak menemukan juga akhirnya saya tersudut hanya kebeberapa merk saja yang ada di pasaran diantaranya merk Transcend. Setelah memilih akhirnya saya memutuskan untuk mengambil seri JetFlash T3 dengan alasan seri ini lah yang terkecil walaupun tidak mengetahui bocoran tentang kinerjanya. Dengan bemodalkan Rp. 115.000 saya sudah bisa membawa pulang T3 dengan kapasitas 4GB sepertinya ukuran ini sudah bisa untuk menampung data data yg saya butuhkan.

Paket Penjualan
Tak ada yang menarik pada produk Transcend ini karena tak ada satupun bonus yang diberikan :( adapun pada kemasanya terdapat :

- Usb flashdisk
- brosur usb flashdisk
- brosur photo frame & digital music player

Memang sangat disayangkan kenapa transcend sampai hati tidak memberikan sedikit bonus untuk para customernya apa lagi usb T3 ini ukuranya sangat kecil yang akan lebih mudah tercecer dibandingkan flashdisk type lainya.

Kinerja
Setelah sedikit kecewa dengan tidak terdapatnya bonus kita langsung saja melihat kinerja produk ini. untuk mengetahui nya saya mengunkan software yang sering saya gunakan untuk meng-benchmark produk usb flashdisk. ini hasil nya :

Dari hasil test diatas terlihat kalau flashdisk ini bukalah flashdisk dengan kinerja yang paspasan apa lagi buruk tetapi salah satu flashdisk dengan kinerja yang mampu bersaing dengan flashdisk sekelas croshair voyager ataupun flashdisk dengan chip SLC yang berharga lebih mahal.

Nilai tambah
Selain memiliki kinerja yang bagus ternyata flashdisk ini memiliki fitur yang tersembunyi yaitu dengan terdapatnya sofware yang lumayan bagus tetapi untuk mendapatkan software tersebut kita harus mendownloadnya di www.transcendusa.com . JetFlash Elite begitu software ini diberi nama dengan beberapa fitur yang bisa dilihat pada gambar dibawah ini.

Kesimpulan :
Dengan ukuran yang sangat mini yang beratnya hanya 2 gram flashdisk ini mampu menunjukan kalau flashdisk ini setara cabe rawit ( kecil tapi pedas) . Transcend juga tak menjual produk ini dengan harga yang tinggi tapi seharga flashdisk kelas value lainya, walaupun tidak ada bonus secara fisik tapi flashdisk ini memiliki software yang cukup bagus.
