Pretec Press Release
Pretec Electronics Corp., the inventor of iDisk Tiny, the smallest USB flash Drive in the world since 2003, is demonstrating CU-Flash(TM), the even smaller USB flash drive with area of 45% smaller and volume of 40% smaller than a US Quarter coin at CES (booth # IP 531& 532) in Las Vegas.
With volume of 0.47cm3 (21mmX11.9mmX1.9mm), only 25% of the size of bare iDisk Tiny (volume of 1.88cm3); CU-Flash is about 1/10 of the size of a typical USB flash drive. Much smaller than Pretec iDisk Tiny; the smallest USB flash drive in the world, with raw dimension of 32mmX13.5mmX4.5mm, which has been hailed by TIME Magazine (Nov. 2003) as “Best Gear of 2003,” CU-Flash can be an excellent companion to usher a new trend of mobile storage solution in fashionable style. With patented design, construction and stylish outlook, CU-Flash can be an ideal add-on for any stationery such as pen, jewelry or personal accessories such as watch, necktie pin, hairpin, etc. for value-added or personalized premium gift.
CU-Flash can also at the same time be the fastest USB flash drive in the world, with 166X/80X READ/WRITE speed, which is up to 24.9MB/sec and 12MB/sec access speed. Fabricated in patent-pending automatic and efficient MCP process, CU-Flash can be as low cost as $6 in volume (bare in bulk packaging), ideal for floppy disk replacement, personal identification tag or rugged industrial applications. Capacity ranges from 16MB to 512MB now, with 1GB CU-Flash scheduled to be in mass production by Q2/2005. Auto-run, password protection, and write protection features can be added by volume customer request, making CU-Flash the best USB flash drive solution in the industry.
Pretec is also demonstrating the largest capacity USB flash drive (8GB/4GB) in the world and the fastest USB flash drive in the world at CES today. With more than 100 patents granted or filed, Pretec offers simultaneously the smallest, the largest capacity and the fastest USB flash drive in the world.
