USB flash drives are very common devices nowadays. I mean that nobody even think about them like they were gadgets, they became usual data storage media, just like floppy disks, or rewritable CDs and DVDs. Capacity, speed and price vary from model to model, but there’s no big difference actually. So there is only thing that can interest customers – design.
Lots of automobile-related co-branding activities going on now (Porsche cells and laptops, Hummer cellphones, and so on). SanDisk have launched a set of Ducati branded data storage products, one of them is SanDisk Ducati Extreme USB Flash Drive.
So, what we’ve got here? This flash drive which looks like the tank cover of a Ducati bike – this might reflect the speed of Ducati motorcycles in Flash memory products. And it’s not just an advertisement trick – the 4GB USB drive shows off a 20MB per second read and write speed, which is the fastest that SanDisk currently has available.
SanDisk Ducati Extreme USB Flash Drive is available in 4GB capacity only, and comes with Ducati lanyard (which is an officially licensed Ducati product) and RescuePRO® Deluxe Recovery Software CD for price of $124.99.
