DT´s Flash Drive Blog

To kick off our series on Super Talent flash drives, we will first showcase what’s probably the most elegant and capable model. The aptly named Luxio.

First of all, Super Talent has been around for 20 years after it was birthed by the Silicon Valley boom. They’re specialized in memory technology and all their flash drives pride themselves on certain standards. Luxio memory sticks make no exception and this is what they are:

- Compatibility with USB 1.0 and 2.0.
- LED indicator for power and activity.
- Hot plug & play.
- Keychain hole.
- A data retention of more than 10 years.
- Lifetime warranty.

Then we have the specifics which mark Luxio’s individuality:

- The design of wood grain, silver or black.
- The capacities of 16, 32, 64 and 128GB.
- Support for password protection and ReadyBoost.
- Erases data after five failed password attempts.
- The economic size of 21 x 76.50 x 9.50 mm.
- A neat leather carrying case.

What makes Luxio flash drives really special though is the 256-bit advanced encryption standard (AES-256) and their fast transfer rate. Operating with a dual channel flash memory, the reading speed is 30MB/sec (200x) while the writing speed is 16MB/sec. Talk about swiftness!

So if you ask me, these memory sticks definitely have the makings of a super talent and justify their hint of luxury. Don’t you agree?

p.s.: I actually used to think that Luxio was the manufacturer and SuperTalent the specific brand product. But as you can see, it’s actually the other way around. So don’t feel bad if you made the same mistake…now you know better!

Are you looking to buy one of the smallest memory sticks in the world? The Pico is probably the tiniest there is after the EagleTec Nano Drive, but with a smoother design.

Pico Flash Drive by Super Talent (@ ) or ()

First of all, the Pico is manufactured by Super Talent. That company has been around for 20 years after it was birthed by the Silicon Valley boom. They’re specialized in memory technology and all their flash drives pride themselves on certain standards. Pico memory sticks make no exception and this is what they are:

- Compatibility with USB 1.0 and 2.0.
- LED indicator for power and activity.
- Hot plug & play.
- Keychain ring or hole.
- A data retention of more than 10 years.
- Lifetime warranty.

Then we have the specifics which mark Pico’s individuality:

- The different designs from A to E.
- The plating editions of chrome, nickel and gold (24K).
- The capacity range of 1 – 32GB.
- The transfer rate of up to 30MB/sec (200x).
- The water and shock resistance.

So let us take a look at the various models, shall we?

What makes Pico flash drives really special is the super-light weight of less than 6g and the ultra-slim miniature size of 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm (approx.). That’s a little taller than a quarter or your thumb.

Update:

Surely small but powerful but not quite the peak of efficiency. That’s reserved for the Pico Mini!

The Mini is only 3mm thin and weighs 4.5 grams less, making it 1.5 g light!

Other traits are:

- 30MB/sec (200x) transfer rate
- 2 – 16GB
- Available in pink, blue, green and black
- ReadyBoost compatible
- Water & shock resistant

So is your interest more than piqued? All I hope is that you won’t suffer from a reversed inferiority complex now.

Corleone speaking: “So you wanna act like a man and buy the Godfather flash drive?
Look, here’s some information you can’t refuse.”

The Godfather Flash Drives by Super Talent (@ ) or ()

First of all, the Godfather series is manufactured by Super Talent. That company has been around for 20 years when after it was birthed by the Silicon Valley boom. They’re specialized in memory technology and all their flash drives pride themselves on certain standards. Godfather memory sticks make no exception and this is what they are:

- Compatibility with USB 1.0 and 2.0.
- Hot plug & play.
- Keychain ring or hole.
- A data retention of more than 10 years.

Then we have the specifics which mark GF’s individuality.

- The designs of rubber or swivel, with Corleone’s hologram.
- The capacities of 1, 2, 4, 8 or 16GB.
- The sizes of 49.7 x 19.5 x 9.3 mm (rubber) and 40.0 x 14.4 x 5.2 mm (swivel)
- Only available in the US (limited edition).

What makes Godfather flash drives really special though is that they contain quotes and still images from the movie. Plus they come with an appropriate Godfather package case. Molto bene, si?

Case closed: Godfather Flash Drive Packaging

Ok. If you ask me, these memory sticks pretty smoothly revive the spirit of the Godfather movies. You can definitely tell where they draw their inspiration from and how that makes for a respectful tribute. Wouldn’t you say? Feel free to comment and share your experience with them.

p.s.: By the way, the swivel model is the same as Super Talent’s Pico D.
