The already large collection of flash drives has now grown by one series, as Green House stepped forward and covered quite the sizable range of capacities, even some that might look out of place in this day and age.
The NAND Flash storage technology, like any others, will, eventually, be surpassed by some new invention, like Samsung's
ReRAM, the same way DRAM could come to be replaced by
MRAM.
Still, even if those companies do manage to create memory devices that work hundreds or thousands of times better than those of today, and on less power, it will take years for the industry to even get close to that point.
As such, makers of NAND Flash storage units need not fear for the future, since users will continue to seek out SSDs, flash drives, etc.
Green House is one of the companies to most recently unveil a new series of flash devices, specifically a range of USB drives.
Though, outwardly, the seven modules don't really stand out so much, closer inspection will reveal a couple of significant elements.
One is the storage space range which, instead of aiming for absolute highs, actually goes for the lows, since the emphasis is more on durability that capacity in this case.
More specifically, while the 8 GB, 4 GB 2 GB and even 1 GB models won't come across as very shocking, the units with 512 MB, 256 MB and 128 MB just might.
The other prime element is the metal body which can withstand shocks (up top 1,500 G) and temperatures of -40 degrees to 85 degrees Celsius.
As for performance, the USB 2.0 and 1.1 standards are supported, enabling read and write rates of 20 MB/s and 18 MB/s, respectively.
Unfortunately, though availability should ramp up this week (along with a three-year warranty), no actual prices were disclosed.
