The end result is a variety of uniquely designed memory modules and storage products including USB flash drives, memory cards and solid-state drives (SSD).
In addition to their flash based storage solutions, Silicon Power offers a number of portable hard drives. One of the latest additions to their product lineup is the Armor A66.
