A-DATA is one of the world's most important manufacturers of various memory modules and flash-based portable storage solutions, as it has launched countless such items over the past few years. And in order to make its products more attractive for the western customers, the Taiwan-based firm has entered a very lucrative partnership with Disney, launching a whole new series
of specially-themed drives, much like the specific model you're about to see as follows, namely the A-DATA Theme Series T703 Mickey Flash Drive, whose shape and "extra-features" might make it quite attractive for a certain category of consumers.

Quite obviously, the most important selling point of the T703 is represented by its special, Mickey-inspired external casing. The device, which weighs only around 15 grams, looks a lot like the head of Disney's most famous character, with the actual drive being one of the ears (thus, in order to take it out of the case, one will have to pull on Mickey's ear). Furthermore, the "face" of the drive can also house a mirror or a small photo, thus enhancing its level of customization.

The provided storage capacity is quite an important feature for just about any type of portable storage solution and the Disney-themed drive from A-DATA is by no means sub-standard, as it is available in 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB versions, practically offering a certain model for just about every market segment. Furthermore, much like all similar devices available on the market, the T703 connects to a host computer via an USB 2.0 interface, which means that it supports data transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps.

The drive from A-DATA is also quite versatile from the compatibility point of view, as it works with some of the most popular operating systems on the market, including here Windows 98/98SE/ME/2000/XP/Vista or later, Mac: OS 9.0 or later and Linux: Kernel 2.4 or later.
