Flash drive technologies are comparatively mature and universal. Unique applications such as “USB albums” released by pop singers are starting to emerge. That being said, data storage still represents the most important function for a majority of users. There are numerous memory manufacturers and the number of available types and styles is staggering. How can consumers select a drive that meets their needs?

OTG functionality – Pet feature of mobile devices

OTG products currently enjoy a growing popularity among consumers. These devices are equipped with standard USB and MicroUSB connectors and may be used for direct data transfer and backup between desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Recommended models include Kingston DTDUO, Transcend JF380G, Kingmax PJ-02, and Sony MicroVault (since prices vary considerably interested users should search for the best bargains online)

Kingmax PJ-02 is a USB which is design for portable devices, especially for OTG(On-The-Go) function. The OTG USB supports Android OS, Win8/Win7/Vista/XP/2000, Mac OS V10.6.1, and Linux kernel V2.6x. The size of PJ-02 is only 30.7x 12×4.5 mm, and 20 grams weight only. There is slip-proof design with four salient points, and can push it into devices easier. To protect the micro USB, there is a cover with a strap hole, users can hang PJ-02 on any place you like.

By selecting high-quality products, users exude an air of professionalism. Consumers who place great emphasis on details also attach great importance to these portable devices. Data can be removed at any time which provides increased protection for business secrets and private data. These mobile devices also allow real-time retrieval and editing of data while users are away from their offices, thereby providing greater convenience. Transmission cables and hubs are no longer required and users enjoy more rapid and reliable data transmission.

Simplicity and stylishness – Elegant and fashionable portable accessories

A growing number of flash drives feature unique designs. However, overly fancy designs are often a passing fad. Simple and stylish devices, on the other hand, accentuate personal taste. In addition to design and appearance, stability and durability are also main considerations for the selection of flash drives. Consumers should be careful when selecting low-price products since manufacturers usually don’t reveal the quality of used materials.

Consumers who favor Japanese-style devices tend to be drawn to Sony products which attract potential customers through simple lines and high quality. The Sandisk Cruzer Orbit CZ58 Pen Drive features a clean and elegant design and relies on appearance to attract customers, while Choicee Clip’s unique design concept still feels fresh even 4 years after its release. Kingmax Super Stick Mini, on the other hand, is as thin and light as a bookmark. The specially treated metal connector is wear and tear resistant and takes up very little space, featuring a neat and elegant design.

Conclusion

A large number of flash drives claim to have encryption functions but fail to achieve their advertised results. Consumers should think twice before paying a higher price for a disappointing and useless product. Water and dust resistance, on the other hand, is a very useful feature which guarantees a wider application range for flash drives.
