SanDisk Extreme USB 3.0 Flash Drive

13

SanDisk is a pretty big name in the memory industry, and if you’ve ever had a USB flash drive once, we’re willing to bet that it’s either you owned a SanDisk flash drive or you had to make a choice not to get one - either way, you’ve come across this brand name once and now we’re rubbing it in your face again. The SanDisk Extreme USB 3.0 Flash Drive shows off what SanDisk has been doing with its tech these days: it offers USB 3.0 which enables it to peak at around 190 MBps for transfer speeds. As per tradition, it has the in-built SanDisk SecureAccess program, which allows you to secure your files by encryption. Capacities ranging from 16 GB to 64 GB ensure that you have the right space for the right sizes. StorageReview.com reports the 64GB model to be $70, which would be equivalent to around P3010 flat, without mark-up, making the SanDisk extreme priced at P47.03 per gigabyte. This USB 3.0-compatible is impressive for its price, although it’s not yet available in the Philippine market.
