SanDisk has launched its Cruzer Contour USB flash drive in India. This sleek drive combines a high-end design with blazing speed.
It has a glossy black top and a silver metallic body. A unique feature of SanDisk’s Cruzer Contour is that it features a unique sliding USB connector. Using your thumb, you’ll be able to slide the top of the Cruzer Contour back and forth to bring out or hide the connector. There’s no visible switch or even a cap, so there’s no chance of losing any part of this drive. The SanDisk Cruzer Contour USB flash drive is available in 4GB and 8GB capacities.
Features:
Design: The slider requires nothing more than two flicks of the thumb.
Performance: Cruzer Contour delivers a write speed of 18 MB/sec. Read speed is 25 MB/sec. Cruzer Contour also supports the ReadyBoost feature in Microsoft Windows Vista, which taps unused storage space on USB flash drives to improve system performance – especially when several applications are running simultaneously.
Pre-installed software: Cruzer Contour offers U3 technology for running applications directly from the drive, without those applications having to be installed on the computer. Free U3-compatible software provided with the drive includes the PC phone service Skype, SanDisk’s own CruzerSync for synchronizing files between a PC and the drive, the password manager program SignupShield Passwords from Protecter, and a trial version of anti-virus software.
Security: Cruzer Contour provides password protection through U3, backed by AES hardware encryption. This is much stronger than the software-based security available on some USB flash drives. With password protection turned on, users have less to worry about if the drive is lost or stolen.
The SanDisk Cruzer Contour USB flash drive is available in India with a limited life time warranty for a price of Rs.2750 for the 4GB version and Rs.5250 for the 8GB model.
