Patriot teases the Supersonic Magnum, a USB 3.0 flash drive that promises to deliver read speeds of up to 200MB/s and write speeds of up to 110MB/s. It will start shipping in 64GB and 128GB capacities in Q2 2011.
Patriot Memory, a global pioneer in high-performance memory, NAND flash, storage and enthusiast computer products, today unleashes the Supersonic Magnum -- a 128GB USB 3.0 SuperSpeed flash drive that combines lightning-fast performance with massive storage capacities.
The Patriot Supersonic Magnum combines a single-chip native USB 3.0 controller with eight-channels of memory to deliver sequential read and write speeds up to 200MB/s and 110MB/s respectively – beyond the performance capabilities of internal hard drives.
“We continually try to raise the performance bar when it comes to our flash drives. With our new eight-channel memory controller, we are able to reach read and write performance levels previously impossible with external storage,” says Les Henry, Patriot Memory’s Vice President of Engineering.
A lightweight and durable aluminium enclosure enables the Patriot Supersonic Magnum to survive up to 15Gs of shock for safe transportation of your data with added style.
Expect the Patriot Supersonic Magnum to ship in Q2’2011 in 64GB and 128GB capacities.
