SuperSpeed at the helm

Many a performance USB flash drive is stifled by the limitations imposed by the USB 2.0 interface that hits a real-world data-transfer ceiling of 35MB/s. This is why SuperSpeed USB 3.0 makes a lot of sense for large-capacity sticks based on the portable storage medium.

A-Data sees the obvious benefits of USB 3.0 and has released a triumvirate of 'N005' drives that proffer interface-unshackled performance.

Available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB capacities and delivering transfer speeds of up to 85MB/s, the aluminium-clad sticks, complete with snap-on cap, look the business.

No word on pricing as yet, as usual, but we're looking forward to testing them out.
