Sharkoon Reveals Quad-Channel USB 3.0 Sticks For Extreme Speeds
Believe it or not, we have actually heard of a quad-channel USB 3.0
stick before. They certainly aren't "everywhere" yet, but they're
becoming increasingly popular as more and more notebooks start to ship
with USB 3.0 ports. Sharkoon, an accessories and peripherals company,
has just introduced their newest USB stick, a USB 3.0 device that has
write rates of up to 70MB/sec, read rates of up to 110MB/sec and arrives
in two sizes: 32GB and 64GB.
These aren't giant drives that could be easily used as notebook backup drivers, but they're still sizable enough to carry around your essential documents and/or media. It only ships in one color, a dark grey aluminum, and has a protective cap and keychain slot. It weighs but 16 grams, and should be on sale soon for 69.90 euros (32 GB) and 124.90 euros (64 GB) from authorized retailers.
