Funny Farm

Posted by: DT  :  Category: Animal Data Feed

Another common theme for unconventional flash drives is animals. Since it’s so widespread I figure we divide them up in several parts. Oops, apologies to any vegetarians if this sounded wrong…


So here’s part 1 on animal flash drives. Welcome to the farm!



Pig Memory Sticks in green, purple, pink and black

Getting piggy with it: Pig Flash Drive (@ logox21) or (white logo2)


Of course we start with the pig flash drive. It is raised in several breeds, ranging from purple to pink. The fattest pig wallows in 64GB – and not just FAT32. Others can gobble with a speed of 12MB/s. If you want it to be squeaky clean again, just delete the files.




And after your pig leaves the sty, it may turn into this. Oink!



A pig may turn into this...

Next we have the cow flash drive.

Port Pasturing: Cow Flash Drive (@ black logo ) or (black3)


With the grass greener on the other side of the port, it can ruminate up to 16GB. And it can be milked with 10MB/s. Mooooo!







As for chicken, first we have the rooster flash drive.

Chicken Port Byte: Rooster Flash Drive (@ logox21) or (white logo2)


Crowing up to 16GB with 10MB/s, this stick comes home to boost. Cock-a-doodle-do!






Then we have its foot:

And instead of roosting, you could also be roasting.

We also have the chicklet flash drive:

And before they were chicken they were…




The Egg before the Chicken?

Or was it the other way around?






Anyway, let’s visit the sheep.

Up to 8GB can flock to this sheep flash drive. And probably due to its wool it’s even waterproof. Baaa!







And what do we have here?





Donkey Memory Stick in purple

Donkey Work: Donkey Flash Drive (@ logox21 ) or (white logo2)


This donkey flash drive can kick around 32GB and may stubbornly hold onto it for 10 years. I guess that’s why they call it donkey’s years. Hee-Haw!







Last but not least there’s animal that is not actually raised on the farm – but it sure likes to hang out there a lot!



Owl Memory Sticks in grey, pink and brown

In & out of the Barn: Owl Flash Drive (@ black logo ) or (black3)


This owl flash drive watches over up to 32GB. It even has a write protect switch and can be used night AND day. Hoo-hoo!

Veggie Love

Posted by: DT  :  Category: Eat & Write


Ok – time to bring this blog back from its slumber! And what would be more suitable to liven up the energy than vegetable flash drives? Yep, even though we already covered quite a bunch of produce, let’s chew on some more juicy USB sticks. Like grandma would say, one can never have enough greens, right?


Let’s start our USB salad with some carrot flash drive.


Carrot Memory Stick with & without lid

The Carrot & The Stick: Carrot Flash Drive (@ logox21) or (white logo2)


You can dangle it from your keychain or plant it into your USB port – rewarding your computer with lots of data-carotenes and vitamin GBs!



But enough of this agent orange. Next we’ll go more green.



Cucumber Memory Stick with & without lid

As cool: Cucumber Flash Drive(@ black logo ) or (black3)



This cucumber flash drive can pickle up to 8GB of data without going sour.




While we’re on pickles, the next one doesn’t hold any data at all – but it sure shines a light on it!

Giving the Green Light: USB Pickle (@ black logo ) or (black3)




But back to our salad. How about we toss in some cool beans?



Bean Memory Sticks with & without lid

Count me in: Bean Flash Drive (@ logox21) or (white logo2)


Actually they can get quite warm, especially when they’re full and digesting 16GB of storage. I wonder: Would MISTER Bean use a bean flash drive?




Anyhow, next we could do with some mushroom.



Mushroom Memory Sticks in Green, Red & Brown

Dots on the I: Mushroom Flash Drive (@ logox21 ) or (white logo2)



Ok, ok, this may not be the edible type – but surely your computer could need a high? At least once in a while? Or maybe just good luck? Ingeniously, the cap is right under the cap and with 32GB, this mushroom flash drive adds some valuable protein to our salad.




However, if that’s not enough for you protein lovers out there we can also add some egg.




Egg Memory Stick with & without lid

In Your Face: Egg Flash Drive (@ logox21 ) or (white logo2)



While it may have its funny side up we should be careful not to fry it. With standard USB speed and storage, there’s no mystery to the computer egg – unless you choose to add some encryption software.




While we’re talking egg flash drive, how about we also take eggplant?



Eggplant Memory Stick with & without lid

Keeping in Shape : Eggplant Flash Drive (@ logox21) or (white logo2)



This one also comes as a hub which could bring some order to our data salad.



To round it off, we could also add some USB Corn, Cabbage and Peppers.




Of course we could also make other types of salad. Can you say peas?



Pea USB Hub for Memory Sticks

Smoking Pod: Pea USB Hub (@ logox21 ) or (white logo2)



Or potato flash drive?



Mr. & Mrs. Potato Memory Stick in front & rear view

All in the Head: Potato Flash Drive (@ black logo ) or (black3)


Actually these are Mr. and Mrs. Potato from Toy Story. They would probably protest to be mashed into a salad.



How about pumpkin?



Pumpkin Memory Stick with & without lid

Trick & Treat: Pumpkin Flash Drive (@ black logo) or (black3)



Of course a pumpkin flash drive also makes for a great Halloween gadget.




And last but not least, peanuts!



Peanut Memory Stick with & without lid

Crunching Files: Peanut Flash Drive (@ logox21 ) or (white logo2)


Im not sure if there is such a thing as a peanut salad but I’m sure we can work something out with its butter. Either way, you better ensure that your computer isn’t allergic to these peanut flash drives as they can grow to a size of 16GB.


And for those of you who can’t stomach a salad without any meat, just top it off with Bacon, Chicken and Beef Flash Drives. Bon apetite!

SuperSonic

Posted by: DT  :  Category: Patriot

Updated: October 25, 2011
(see SuperSonic Xpress)

With the recently unleashed SuperSonic, Patriot is breaking new ground for USB flash drives. So far, their driving force was the Xporter, already boasting impressive speeds with models like the Magnum (which coincidentally, we will meet again in this post). But integrating USB 3.0 together with leading edge technology, Patriot is taking it up a notch. The SuperSonic flash drives use multiple channeling to make the most out of 3.0, delivering real high speeds even for large sequential file transfers. And for those on a budget, there is also more down-to-earth model. Simple yet stylish, a black and blue theme rounds off the picture. Literally!
