They’ve become so popular in fact that they are now called by a variety of names such as USB Flash Disk, Thumb Drive, Pen Drive, Memory Key, Micro Vault, Pocket Drive, KeyChain, Pico Drive, etc. Flash drives are an ideal alternative to floppy disks or CDs for easy, compact, fast and reliable data transfer. Higher capacity units of over 256 MB can offer a more convenient way of carrying files than on a CD. Nearly every new computer sold in recent years has several USB ports or sockets. The USB Flash Drive simply plugs into one of these ports, ready for use. No cables, power supplies, or batteries are required. No need to shut down and restart your computer either just to set the USB flash drive for operation. With the demand for stylish, portable, efficient, and high-capacity USB drives, Kanguru has developed a product that will outperform other USB drives in the market today. This product is called the Kanguru FlashBlu Max USB Flash Drive. Kanguru Max Flash Drive is characterized as being smaller than the Kanguru Mini Drive by 50 percent with a size of 50mm x 25mm x 10mm and weighing only 13g. Furthermore, this flash drive uses flash memory with a 10-year data retention capability under normal usage.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/16/64gb-kanguru-flashblu-max-usb-flash-drive/feed/ 1 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/15/ocz-rally2-dual-channel-32gb-usb-flash-drive/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ocz-rally2-dual-channel-32gb-usb-flash-drive http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/15/ocz-rally2-dual-channel-32gb-usb-flash-drive/#comments Mon, 15 Sep 2008 14:30:27 +0000 TigerTeam http://news.tigerdirect.com/?p=5236 USB is now a standard feature on all PCs and makes it much easier for users everywhere to plug in everything from digital cameras to MP3 players to their PCs. Today, USB 2.0 or Hi-Speed USB, provides an even greater enhancement in performance—up to 40 times faster than USB 1.0, with a design data rate of 480 megabits per second (Mbps). One such device that takes advantage of this great technology is the OCZ Rally2 Dual Channel 32GB Flash Drive.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/15/ocz-rally2-dual-channel-32gb-usb-flash-drive/feed/ 0 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/12/tight-seal-corsair-flash-survivor-16gb-usb-flash-drive/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tight-seal-corsair-flash-survivor-16gb-usb-flash-drive http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/12/tight-seal-corsair-flash-survivor-16gb-usb-flash-drive/#comments Fri, 12 Sep 2008 15:00:28 +0000 TigerTeam http://news.tigerdirect.com/?p=5233 USB provides an expandable, hot-pluggable plug-and-play serial interface that ensures a low-cost connection for peripheral devices such as keyboards, mice, joysticks, printers, scanners, storage devices, modems, and video conferencing cameras.

The goal of the new serial bus is to broaden the range of external peripherals that can be used on a computer. A portable hard drive, for instance, can easily hit a bottleneck on USB 1.1 whereas it becomes more 'usable' under USB 2.0 conditions.]]> http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/11/plug-and-play-hp-v100w-usb-20-flash-drive/feed/ 2 http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/11/patriot-xporter-xt-boost-32gb-usb-flash-drive/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=patriot-xporter-xt-boost-32gb-usb-flash-drive http://news.tigerdirect.com/2008/09/11/patriot-xporter-xt-boost-32gb-usb-flash-drive/#comments Thu, 11 Sep 2008 13:30:36 +0000 TigerTeam http://news.tigerdirect.com/?p=5237 Today, just about every PC comes with Universal Serial Bus or USB ports. In the late 1990s, a few computer manufacturers started including USB support in their new systems, but today USB has become a standard connection port for many devices such as keyboards, mice, joysticks and digital cameras to name but a few. USB is able to support and is supported by a large range of products.

Would you believe that in the past, people were able to get by with a mere megabyte of storage space? Now, a megabyte is just the size of one high-resolution photo or maybe a bunch of word documents. Of course, nobody stores just one photo or a document or two; we have storage needs that amount to hundreds of gigabytes, and possibly more. What’s more, there’s also the issue of portability as well as the matter of backing up the data on our primary hard disks for safeguard. So, for addressing all those needs, we suggest that you take a look at the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini 250GB? Coming.

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.
