World's Smallest USB Drive - Pico C USB 4 GB to 32 GB

World's Smallest USB Drive: A range of USB Drives have gone on sale this week boasting the smallest size and weight in the industry.

A key advantage of the USB drive has always been their size. Now the SuperTalent Pico C takes it to another level.

Pico C USB 4 GB to 32 GB

It may be tiny, weighing less than 6 grams but that doesn’t prevent it from holding up to 32 GB of data.

This flash drive is speedy too, “the I/O performance results are amazing when it comes to the Super Talent Pico C.” explained Tom’s Hardware reviewer Patrick Schmid. However the Pico suffers from slower write speeds. Patrick went on to say “the flash-based thumb drive is great for file storage, but not for intensive access.”

Measuring just 1.5”x0.5”, it’s possible to attach the Pico USB drive to a key ring. This means there is no need to worry about losing it.

The first USB flash drive went on sale in 2000. By 2005 many computer manufacturers stopped including floppy disk drives in their products to make way for more USB ports. USB flash drives act as the modern alternative to floppy disks. Unlike a floppy disk drive, USB ports appear on more than just
computers. These days everything from mobile phones to the latest Nintendo 3DS consoles include a USB port.

The need for physical portable storage has declined over the years as the Internet provides most of the services which previously required a floppy disk.

There is still a need for physical storage though as USB drives deliver much greater data transfer rates when compared with standard Internet connections. This looks to remain true for the next few years with the first USB 3.0 compatible hardware going on sale earlier this year, featuring up to 6 times the transfer speed of USB 2.0 connections.

The Pico USB drive is also shock and water resistant, meaning a few bumps aren’t going to cause it to lose any data.

The Pico C USB Flash Drive is available now. The 4 GB version comes in at £9.45 while the larger 32 GB edition costs £35.45.
