The T5 also features a retractable connector and is compatible with Transcend’s JetFlash elite software.
Transcend Information, Inc. (Transcend), a leading manufacturer of flash memory products, today introduced a new ultra-tiny USB flash drive, the JetFlash® T5. Measuring just 29.9mm x 15.3mm x 6.1mm (L x W x D), the T5 is incredibly compact, and only weighs a mere 2g. Unlike other miniature USB flash drives, the T5 is constructed with non-breakable plastic and is rugged enough to resist bending, stress, vibration, shock, and even full water submersion. Its retractable connector design and eye-catching two-tone color schemes not only make the drive easier to handle and use, but also give it a unique fashion accessory look. With its convenient attachment loop, the ultra-light T5 can be used as a mobile phone dongle or a keychain fob, making it easy to carry and store in places where ordinary flash drives just do not fit.
Transcend recently announced the release of its new 128GB high speed 2.5-inch Solid State Disk (SSD) drive. This MLC-equipped SSD features a new controller and SATA-II interface, making it capable of 145MB/s read and 92MB/s write speeds.
Transcend Information Inc. (Transcend®), the world’s leading manufacturer of memory products, is proud to release its all-new 128GB high speed 2.5-inch Solid State Disk (SSD). SSDs are made of reliable NAND flash memory that contains no moving parts, and therefore are not susceptible to mechanical failure resulting from vibration, shock or heat. Featuring a powerful new controller, Transcend’s MLC-equipped 128GB SSD far outpaces standard 2.5” hard drives, delivering exceptional sustained read/write speeds of up to 145MB / 92MB per second to guarantee fast throughput regardless of file size. With these high-speed transfer rates and virtually non-existent (0.2ms) latency, software applications and games open faster and run more smoothly, improving overall system responsiveness. Moreover, this SSD’s industry-standard SATA-II interface and 2.5” form factor allow easy and straightforward user installation in most notebook computers and mainstream PCs just like regular hard drives.
As a leader in the storage and upgrade markets, PNY is proud to be the first company to introduce a range of products dedicated to the most promising and fastest growing PC market segment (+69% growth expected in 2009 in units which means a market of 8 billions WW): Netbooks. The first product to be launched is the SDHC Memory Card.
The mainstream Netbooks models offer a small storage capacity (4 to 8GB) but include a SDHC slot. That makes the PNY netbook SDHC card the ideal accessory: once plugged you just never remove it, and double (or more) your storage capacity!
Available in 8GB and 16GB, the SDHC netbook edition is the first product of a complete PNY NetBook upgrade range which will be launched in the following month.

Add a commentpureSilicon unveiled its Renegade Series Solid-State Drives this week. These new SSDs are available in capacities up to 128GB and are protected from harsh physical environments by a hard-anodized unibody enclosure, carved from a single piece of aluminum. They also features hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption that delivers instantaneous encryption and decryption of data with no performance degredation.
pureSilicon Inc. unveiled the Renegade Series Solid-State Drives (SSD), the first SSDs to integrate hardware-based encryption approved by the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS). The Renegade SSD is also compliant with MIL-STD-810F, a military standard that requires the SSD to sustain reliable operation during a series of rigorous tests that validate its ability to endure the extreme environments typically seen in industrial and military applications.
The pureSilicon Renegade SSD addresses the demands of the most challenging environments where heat, vibration, and humidity preclude the use of traditional hard disk drives or regular, 'consumer-grade' SSDs. A dedicated on-board cryptographic processor provides hardware-driven 256-bit AES encryption that delivers instantaneous encryption and decryption of data without degrading performance.
