DT´s Flash Drive Blog

Updated: December 9
(see DataTraveler 102)

Today we will start a series on Kingston flash drives and its trademark model, the DataTraveler. It has definitely placed its mark on the market, maybe even put it there. Now with the release of the world’s first 128GB Flash Drive as well as 256GB, Kingston has also gone into the business of rattling it.

The DataTraveler is often abbreviated as the DT, which I testify is pure coincidence. Nonetheless I feel honored and starting with today’s post, I will try to pay back some respect.

Let our journey of Kingston DataTraveler begin…
