Kingston Digital Europe, an affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, a world leader in memory products, has launched its fastest and the world’s largest-capacity USB 3.0 flash drive.

DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 flash drive is shipping now in 512GB capacity, and will be available in a 1TB capacity later in the first quarter of 2013, a statement said.

The new flash drive, which has achieved SuperSpeed USB 3.0 certification, features read speeds of up to 240MB per second and write speeds of 160MB per second.

“Our new DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 allows users to store their entire digital world on a portable USB 3.0 Flash drive,” said Antoine Harb, business development manager MEA Kingston.

“The large capacity and fast USB 3.0 transfer speeds allow users to save time as they can access, edit and transfer applications or files such as HD movies directly from the drive without any performance lag.”

DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 is compliant with next-generation USB 3.0 specifications and is optimized for newer PCs with USB 3.0 ports, the statement said.

Users who work with large video or graphics files, or gamers who like to travel with their entire library will appreciate the drive’s speed and capacity.

The casing is made of zinc alloy metal for superior quality, shock resistance and high-end design. DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 ships with a custom Kingston key ring and a HyperX valet keychain. It is also backwards compatible with USB 2.0 for efficient data transfer rates.

DataTraveler HyperX Predator 3.0 USB Flash drive is part of the HyperX Predator family, which represents the highest-performance products offered from Kingston HyperX. The drive is backed by a five-year warranty, free technical support and legendary Kingston reliability. – TradeArabia News Service
