Tech Ticker

This new offering from Kingston miniscules my 120GB 2.5-inch USB HDD bought about a year back. Check out the DataTraveler 300 that takes the crown for holding up to 256GB of data on a teensy thumb drive. Just in case, you’re too lazy to equate, the pocketable flash drive will be able to store 10 Blu-ray discs (about 25GB each), 54 DVDs or 365 CDs. Storage is not the only thing on offer here. The drive gives password protection, a read/write speed of 20/10 MB/s, Windows Vista ReadyBoost compatible and durable enough to work in extreme conditions.

But, as it’s already known, technology doesn’t come cheap and DataTraveler 300 is no exception. Kingston is making these special drives only on make to order basis and will cost a whopping $963.
