Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the independent world leader in memory products, today announced it is expanding its line of USB Flash drives with the introduction of the DataTraveler HyperX (DT HyperX) and DataTraveler 110 (DT110) models. Designed for ultra-fast read/write speeds and lower price points, respectively, the DT HyperX and DT110 drives are both available in capacities up to 8GB.

“Taking its cue from our HyperX line of industry-setting high-speed memory modules for gamers, enthusiasts and overclockers, the DataTraveler HyperX offers exceptionally fast read and write speeds,” said Joe Teng, Flash memory product manager, Kingston. “Whereas the DT110 provides an economic way to transfer and transport data whenever and wherever you travel.”

DataTraveler HyperX
The DT HyperX has data transfer rates of 30MB/sec. read and 20MB/sec. write, offering consumers a powerful, portable Flash storage solution. Designed to run on any Windows platform but specifically enhanced for Windows ReadyBoost on Vista based systems, users can expect to quickly and easily transfer photos, videos, music and data to their desktop, notebook or a fellow enthusiast’s system.

DataTraveler 110
Sleek, practical and attractively priced, the DT110 serves the needs of budget-conscious users as well as consumers looking for significant storage capacity in a lightweight, compact design. The DT110 features a capless, retractable USB connector for ease-of-use and safe housing. Available in different colors according to capacity: purple (1GB), blue (2GB), red (4GB) and green (8GB), the DT110 is a great, high-quality USB drive.

Both drives are backed by a five-year warranty and free 24/7 technical support.

Personal Note :
I would like to thank Kingston and Trademaker for sending me a test unit of DT110 8gb..

Test Result :
Transferred 7gb files in and then moved it out. It was a smooth process as my existing flash drive slows down the computer but not with this one. I am really happy with everything, the size, performance and the color too. Honestly there is no cons to tell here. It is the best that I have seen so far. Now I am wondering how the HyperX would be. 5 star for this flash drive.
