The Team Group, who has always strived to satisfy consumer needs, has proudly released the C134 micro flash drive. The pursuit of having an item that is lightweight and miniature is the current trend of modern technology. The currently popular Ultrabook and tablet PCs all have these features. Team C134 is a micro flash drive boutique unit that can match these products. The delicate and mini drive body is only the size of a NTD $1 coin, and the “light” weight is only 3.4 grams. This allows it to stick closely on any thin mobile device without interfering with any USB equipment in use or become an obstruction when moving around. Enjoy style and convenience at any place and time with one of these drives in your hand.
By using COB packaging and one-piece technology, the volume and weight of flash drives was pushed a big step forward towards extreme lightness. The C134 has a super mini size of an NTD $1 coin and weighs a mere 3.4 grams. It will not cause any additional loads to notebook PCs or carrying bags whether in terms of usage or portability. At the same time, it still has a large capacity 4GB-32GB accessing space for unlimited storage. The compact size allows it to stick closely to other lightweight mobile devices while in use, so that it will not interfere or become an obstruction when using two USB devices or when carrying or moving the device.It prevents unnecessary space wastage and avoids possible collisions due to the excessive body size. It also echoes perfectly with the design concept of Ultrabook and tablet PCs, working impeccably together!

ATP, a leading industrial grade Flash memory manufacturer, announced the new release of its new industrial grade SATA II SLC SSD, Velocity SI-Lite. The new SSD utilizes the latest generation SLC Flash with industrial grade performance, endurance and wide temperature ranges. With unique requirements for the industrial environments, Velocity SI-Lite comes with the data-integrity-calibrated firmware technologies to protect the data storage device against various power-down and intensive read/write scenarios.
Data integrity is the key for a Flash storage device to survive rough industrial environments. The cutting-edge SI-Lite firmware has taken into account multiple power outage conditions during different read/write timing and the product has passed several thousands of power cycles during the strict product qualification process. The “AutoRefresh” feature provides automatic ECC checks before any uncorrectable failure occurs during read operations. AutoRefresh also moves data to healthy blocks before any failures occur, improving long-term data integrity. The high density SI-Lite has more than twenty times program/erase life cycles over other MLC Flash based industrial SSDs on the market and with more than 1500TB of total bytes written.
