DT´s Flash Drive Blog

In our first part of 32GB flash drives we went from the Corsair Flash Voyager to the Kingston DataTraveler 200. In this second part we can see that Kingston pretty much dominates the 32GB market as we continue with their brand, including a real highlight – the newly released DT 102.

So how much stuff can you actually put on a 32GB flash drive? If you’re talking images, ca. 128000 with a resolution of 1280 x 960. Music-wise you can store about 8333 regular mp3s. As for video, try 45 movies in avi-format or 7 DVDs. Not bad for a memory that’s basically in the middle of the spectrum! For more details see the following list.
