Kingston 1 TerraByte Thumb Drive

[starchild76]

nice to have , but comes with a hefty pricetag

quote :

On Monday Kingston unveiled its 1TB USB flash drive called the Kingston DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0. The Kingston DataTraveler has read/write speeds of up to 240MB/s and 160MB/s respectively. With a USB 2.0 connection on your computer, you will only achieve speeds of up to 30MB/s.

The price for the 1TB model has not been announced, but judging by the tag on its half-capacity sibling, it won?t be too affordable either. A comparable 512GB Kingston model costs a whopping $1750, which is $3.41 per GB, compared to $1.17 per GB for an average 128GB drive.

Why get this when you can have an external hard drive slightly cheaper?

Probably due to the size of the drive and it would end up more of being a ssd wouldnt it with flash memory?

McLovin, ever wondered about the size of a 1TB ExHDD compared to this?

I think not.

At that price you might as well by a nice gold chain and wear it around your neck because loosing that would make me want to cry.

Yes, I do see that this is smaller and better in that case, but I still would prefer an ExHDD. My opinion.
