USB Drives are an extremely popular
means of transporting our data with us, be it files, movies or music,
we have a need to take stuff with us and these products allow us a
quick and portable means to do this. While most USB drives are fairly
small, some are smaller than others, it's almost as if some companies
are trying to make the smallest possible USB drive. This is good for
the consumer though as we take quite a bit of stuff with us
everywhere we go as is, so smaller makes things more portable and
easier to take with us.
Today for review I've got a bit of
bling for you, we all like gold, no matter guy or girl, gold is
something that signifies money, power and status in our society and
has for many centuries, so how about a 24k gold plated USB drive?
Super Talent has come out with a special version of their very
popular Pico-C USB drive, this time they've gold plated it with 24
karat gold to add a bit of class and style to this already excellent
and popular product. The Pico-C Gold is so small and looks so good
that you could possibly wear it as a charm on a necklace or even a
bracelet. Included with the Pico-C Gold is also a strong gold chain
that can be used to attach the Pico-C to your keychain, phone or
anywhere else you wish to. While the Pico-C does look good, looks
aren't everything as we know, so I've put the Pico-C up against a few
other popular USB drives on the market today from ATP, OCZ and Super
Talents own as well.
So continue on to learn more about this
tiny UBS drive and see how it compares out others out there today...

Super Talent's patented PICO
USB drives pack huge capacites into a tiny case. Half the size of an
SD card, each PICO drive is smaller than the plug at the end of a USB
cable! But tiny does not have to mean fragile or slow.
Encased in a sleek and solid
metal housing, no-compromise PICO drives are shock- and
water-resistant to hold up under harsh conditions. And we didn't
forget to include zippy 200x transfer speeds.
