An introducing a 1 TB Flash Drive
Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 11:39PM So for months we sputter along from 32 to 64 to 128GB drives and all of a sudden....BAM 1 TB!!??
Imagine being able to back up all the photos, videos, songs, documents, and everything else on your computer on a single thumb drive. Soon you'll be able to. On Wednesday, Kingston Technology unveiled the "world's largest-capacity USB 3.0 flash drive" at the 2013 Computer Electronics Show in Last Vegas. Due out later this quarter, the DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 boasts a full terabyte of storage—that's 1,000GB to you and me. Those who don't necessarily need a terabyte can get a Kingston drive with 512GB of storage, which is available now. The device is also fast. Kingston said the new HyperX Predator offers transfer speeds of up to 240MB per second when reading data and up to 160MB per second when writing.
Before you get too excited, Kingston has not yet announced pricing details for the 1TB version of the drive, but the 512GB model retails for $1,750. Oh well....
