Memorex USB ThumbDrive Provides Large Data Storage in Compact Device

Oct. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Memorex Products, Inc., the industry sales leader of digital optical storage products, today introduced the Memorex USB ThumbDrive, a storage device small enough to fit on a key chain and capable of storing up to 64 MB or 128 MB of data, digital photos and MP3 files.

With its USB interface, the Memorex ThumbDrive receives power from your computer, eliminating the need for an extra plug. Shock-resistant and unaffected by magnetic interference, the universal device is compatible with Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating systems. The plug-n-play drive reads at 700 Kb per second and writes at 350 Kb per second, making it easy to transfer large files between computers, regardless of the platform. It also offers 10 years of data retention.

"Memorex has demonstrated its leadership in the optical storage media market, and we're applying this experience as we expand our product lines to include USB storage," said Michael Golacinski, president and CEO of Memorex. "The Memorex USB ThumbDrive is an innovative, easy means to store and transfer data for anyone who views mobility as an absolute necessity."

With the Memorex USB ThumbDrive, consumers do not need to be concerned with compatibility or file size as compared to existing devices for transporting files. For example, users can store personal data, computer preferences, bookmarks, multimedia, photos and medical information regardless of the operating system on which they were developed. The Memorex USB ThumbDrive also provides users with more immediate control over sensitive or personal information due to the device's convenient size.

Both Memorex USB ThumbDrives are available this month, at a suggested retail price of $59.99 for the 64 MB ThumbDrive and $99.99 for the 128 MB ThumbDrive.
