Storage

The world's smallest USB stick by far Itsy bitsy spider (actually Super Stick)	By Bogdan Ionescu, Hardware Editor 11th of November 2005, 16:19 GMT Adjust text size:


Welcome to the world of flash storage products, where everything gets smaller and smaller, faster and faster, and everybody just goes with the flow. Smaller phones, smaller screens, in a few words, smaller devices. But don't forget the performance, because it doesn't tend to get reduced too. Facing the technology trend, Kingmax released a super-mini-micro flash drive stick. The Super Stick weighs only five grams and measures 39x12x2 mm. The size may somehow have its disadvantages, because the Super Stick might get lost very fast in your pockets, or, who knows, in somebody else's pocket. The tiny gadget is based on the microSD technology, dubbed as the smallest flash memory on the market, close in size to the RSMMC technology. The stick uses USB 2.0 interface and offers really good transfer speeds: 20 MB/s, both writing and reading. The capacities of the Super Stick range from the entry-level 256 MB to the "too big for its size" 2GB. The tiny device is also waterproof and can retain data up to 10 years, the company claims. Pricing details have not been published yet.
