Now leading the way into the future are flash drives, also known as thumb drives. These tiny devices can hold more data than you’ll probably ever need. And they’re portable! The Corsair Flash Voyager 32GB USB Flash Drive is one of the best that’s out there right now. It’s not only durable and water-resistant (yes, you heard that right), but it can also store an incredible 32GB of memory.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/08/28/corsair-flash-voyager-32gb-usb-flash-drive/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/07/09/sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/07/09/sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/#comments Wed, 09 Jul 2008 16:00:46 +0000 TigerTeam http://news.tigerdirect.com/?p=4304 For all your memory needs, the SanDisk 8GB MicroSDHC with USB Reader and SD Adapter is one of the better choices available in the market today.

Just as important as a photographer’s own skill is his arsenal of equipment. Lenses, filters, flash units, the cameras themselves, and the storage solutions all need to be of exceptional quality. This is why the serious photographer should opt to make use of the SanDisk Extreme® III CompactFlash® 16GB—the premier flash memory solution for true professionals.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/06/30/sandisk-extreme%c2%ae-iii-compactflash%c2%ae-16gb/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/06/12/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/06/12/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/#comments Thu, 12 Jun 2008 15:15:37 +0000 TigerTeam http://news.tigerdirect.com/?p=4316 Most portable hard disk drives can store all sorts of files with memory capacities ranging from 100 gigabytes to a whopping 500 gigabytes--but they're a bit bulky. However, if you need something that will fit right in your shirt pocket, then you may have to go with flash memory. One of these products is the Sandisk 4GB microSDHC with USB Reader and SD Adapter.

There aren't many other devices that can compare to a laptop’s combination of portability and functionality. Simply put, it's a fully-functional PC that you can carry with you all the time. That fact has never been more evident than in the case of the Asus Eee PC 2G Surf. The Asus Eee PC 2G Surf is the little laptop that could; it is ultra-portable redefined. ]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/05/05/asus-eee-pc-2g-surf-2/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/14/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter-2/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter-2 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/14/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter-2/#comments Fri, 14 Mar 2008 18:19:52 +0000 lonnypaul http://news.compusa.com/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/4 There are two common ways to go about addressing your media storage needs. If you have to transport large amounts of files with even larger file sizes, then the best option is to get an external portable hard disk drive. While it may be a bit bulky, most portable hard disk drives today can store all sorts of files with memory capacities ranging from 100 gigabytes up to a whopping 500 gigabytes. However, if what you need is something that will fit right into your shirt’s pocket, then you may have to go with flash memory. In comparison with portable hard drives, flash memory does have a smaller memory capacity. The portability it affords users though, still makes it a much sought-after choice amongst people who are always on the go. One of these products is the Sandisk 4GB microSDHC with USB Reader and SD Adapter.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/14/sandisk-4gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter-2/feed/ 2 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/10/fulfilling-today%e2%80%99s-memory-needs-sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fulfilling-today%25e2%2580%2599s-memory-needs-sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/10/fulfilling-today%e2%80%99s-memory-needs-sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/#comments Mon, 10 Mar 2008 22:26:24 +0000 Tim McGuinness Ph.D. http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/03/10/fulfilling-today%e2%80%99s-memory-needs-sandisk-8gb-microsdhc-with-usb-reader-and-sd-adapter/ Over the years, computer programs, documents and digital media files such as pictures and videos have seen a staggering increase in file size. Pictures have increased in clarity and resolution. Videos are now rendered in high definition. Programs contain more complex codes today. All of which result in larger file sizes. Combine all those factors with the fact that the sheer amount of files we need to have with us while we’re on the go is also steadily on the rise, large capacity storage disks, especially portable ones, like the SanDisk 8GB MicroSDHC with USB Reader and SD Adapter, undoubtedly become all the more invaluable.

Don't feel like you are the only one - everyone seems to consume more hard drive space, use more flash drives and SD cards, external hard drives and nearly every device we use has some form of memory card. SD has quickly become the more widely accepted and used format of flash memory in addition to Compact Flash and USB Drives. Nearly every camera has one now, and even Sony who has always only had their Memory Stick Slot, has gone ahead and realized that they must at least have both to satisfy consumers.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/02/02/16gb-sd-cards-appear/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/25/gentlemen-start-your%e2%80%a6storage-devices/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gentlemen-start-your%25e2%2580%25a6storage-devices http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/25/gentlemen-start-your%e2%80%a6storage-devices/#comments Fri, 25 Jan 2008 14:00:23 +0000 David http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/25/gentlemen-start-your%e2%80%a6storage-devices/ Some people look at flash drives and memory cards and just see them as plain ole’ flash drives and memory cards. Others look at them as a chance to make a tech-savvy statement or even to make a declaration of being “hip." If you consider yourself to be in one of the later groups, then be forewarned: the following line of products may need a little bit of extra effort in order for you to catch up to them. ]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/25/gentlemen-start-your%e2%80%a6storage-devices/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/04/multi-bit-storage-appears-in-announced-ssd/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=multi-bit-storage-appears-in-announced-ssd http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/04/multi-bit-storage-appears-in-announced-ssd/#comments Sat, 05 Jan 2008 04:10:09 +0000 Sr. Editor Lonny Paul http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/04/multi-bit-storage-appears-in-announced-ssd/ Storage - nobody can get enough - but these days it's the transition from standard hard drives to SSD. SSD will provide for the future of mobile devices, with it's shock resistance features, the biggest challenge now is getting SSD up to the capacity people expect to get with a notebook. The days of getting a notebook with a 4GB hard drive are over - today people are enjoying their complete media libraries on their laptops. I have one laptop primarily used with the television with two hard drives in it - and they are needed with media. Some SSD based notebooks have started to appear, but their lack of overall storage capacity may keep them from selling too quickly. ]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/01/04/multi-bit-storage-appears-in-announced-ssd/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/10/04/zune-zune-zune-sorry-3-new-models-from-microsoft/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=zune-zune-zune-sorry-3-new-models-from-microsoft http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/10/04/zune-zune-zune-sorry-3-new-models-from-microsoft/#comments Thu, 04 Oct 2007 19:46:01 +0000 John Gawley http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/10/04/zune-zune-zune-sorry-3-new-models-from-microsoft/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/10/04/zune-zune-zune-sorry-3-new-models-from-microsoft/feed/ 2 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/22/16-and-32gb-sdhc-plus-8gb-microsdhc-announced/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=16-and-32gb-sdhc-plus-8gb-microsdhc-announced http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/22/16-and-32gb-sdhc-plus-8gb-microsdhc-announced/#comments Wed, 22 Aug 2007 07:01:04 +0000 Sr. Editor Lonny Paul http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/22/16-and-32gb-sdhc-plus-8gb-microsdhc-announced/ Toshiba has been busy figuring out how to cram even more memory into the widely popular SD and Micro SD formats - they have stretched the capacity to 16 and 32GB for the latest SDHC capacity and 8GB in the MicroSDHC format. According to Toshiba's Japanese press release, the 16GB SDHC will run you about $350 and will be available in October 2007. The 32GB SDHC monster will be available for double that price, or seven hundred bucks, but y'all are going to have to wait until January 2008 for the biggest card on the block. For those of you with the need to store lots of photo and media on the go (and have a player which supports the MicroSDHC format), Toshiba didn't forget you! Their announcement of the 8GB SHDC capacity will be a welcome message for mobile developers as well. While the 2GB capacity of MicroSD today is just fine for most people, wouldn't you rather have your entire iTunes library on a convenient MicroSD card the size of half a postage stamp? ]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/22/16-and-32gb-sdhc-plus-8gb-microsdhc-announced/feed/ 1 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/16/lexar-expresscard-solid-state-drive-your-flash-drive-days-are-numbered/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=lexar-expresscard-solid-state-drive-your-flash-drive-days-are-numbered http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/16/lexar-expresscard-solid-state-drive-your-flash-drive-days-are-numbered/#comments Thu, 16 Aug 2007 21:16:51 +0000 John Gawley http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/16/lexar-expresscard-solid-state-drive-your-flash-drive-days-are-numbered/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/08/16/lexar-expresscard-solid-state-drive-your-flash-drive-days-are-numbered/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/07/13/tigerdirectcom-weekend-deal-of-the-day-for-friday-july-13th-through-monday-july-16th-2007/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tigerdirectcom-weekend-deal-of-the-day-for-friday-july-13th-through-monday-july-16th-2007 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/07/13/tigerdirectcom-weekend-deal-of-the-day-for-friday-july-13th-through-monday-july-16th-2007/#comments Fri, 13 Jul 2007 17:00:09 +0000 John Gawley http://www.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/07/13/tigerdirectcom-weekend-deal-of-the-day-for-friday-july-13th-through-monday-july-16th-2007/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/07/13/tigerdirectcom-weekend-deal-of-the-day-for-friday-july-13th-through-monday-july-16th-2007/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/05/22/industry-introductions-ocz-technology/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=industry-introductions-ocz-technology http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/05/22/industry-introductions-ocz-technology/#comments Tue, 22 May 2007 13:30:34 +0000 John Gawley http://www.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/05/22/industry-introductions-ocz-technology/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/05/22/industry-introductions-ocz-technology/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/03/26/flash-drives-make-their-way-into-larger-devices/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=flash-drives-make-their-way-into-larger-devices http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/03/26/flash-drives-make-their-way-into-larger-devices/#comments Mon, 26 Mar 2007 15:00:40 +0000 John Gawley http://tigertv.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/03/26/flash-drives-make-their-way-into-larger-devices/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/03/26/flash-drives-make-their-way-into-larger-devices/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/13/storage-solutions-manufacturer-pny-is-ready-for-vistaare-you/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=storage-solutions-manufacturer-pny-is-ready-for-vistaare-you http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/13/storage-solutions-manufacturer-pny-is-ready-for-vistaare-you/#comments Tue, 13 Feb 2007 13:00:15 +0000 John Gawley http://www.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/02/13/storage-solutions-manufacturer-pny-is-ready-for-vistaare-you/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/13/storage-solutions-manufacturer-pny-is-ready-for-vistaare-you/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/09/connect3d-perfect-for-the-gamer-on-a-budget/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=connect3d-perfect-for-the-gamer-on-a-budget http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/09/connect3d-perfect-for-the-gamer-on-a-budget/#comments Fri, 09 Feb 2007 14:00:00 +0000 John Gawley http://www.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/02/09/connect3d-perfect-for-the-gamer-on-a-budget/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/02/09/connect3d-perfect-for-the-gamer-on-a-budget/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/01/16/understanding-flash-memory/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=understanding-flash-memory http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/01/16/understanding-flash-memory/#comments Tue, 16 Jan 2007 13:35:50 +0000 Mr. Miller http://www.tigerdirectnews.com/2007/01/15/understanding-flash-memory/ http://news.tigerdirect.com/2007/01/16/understanding-flash-memory/feed/ 0
