In a society with an ever growing need for data security, Patriot’s Supersonic Bolt XT offers protection inside and out. Using built in FIPS 197 compliant hardware-based 256-bit AES security, the Supersonic Bolt XT is like having a personal Fort Knox in your pocket.  The drive locks down and reformats after 10 consecutive failed password attempts.  The security does not stop with the hardware.  A ruggedized, rubber housing protects your data from common day drops and bumps.

Lightning fast transfer speeds round out this powerhouse flash drive.  With transfer speeds up to 150MB/s, the Supersonic Bolt XT will give you performance needed for accessing and moving large files quickly. A high speed USB 3.0 compatible connection, that is backwards compatible to USB 2.0, provides users with the performance they crave and the security they need. The Supersonic Bolt XT is available in 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB capacities to meet every user’s needs.

Choo, Product Manager at Patriot. “The rugged housing and 256-bit AES security protects priceless data.
