If you’re in need of a new jump drive, or ‘flash drive,’ but haven’t purchased one in a while, you might be surprised to find they still cost a pretty penny and have a host of different types of features. When you’re looking to purchase one, your top priority beyond how safe the device is with your personal files, is probably how fast it can move data.
For a jump drive that holds more than enough storage for basic projects that won’t slow you down, look no further than this Buy Now , marked down to only $50 on Amazon, giving you a satisfying 31-percent discount.
This Lexar jump drive has some of the fastest transfer speeds available, reading up to 400MB per second and writing up to 270MB per second. That’s quick enough to transfer a full-length HD movie (2.3GB video) in 36 seconds, 1,000 3.8MB photos in 1 minute and 16 seconds, or 500 3.8MB photos and five 1GB HD movies in 1 minute and 24 seconds.
The flash drive also ensures your data is protected from the inside and out. Internally it features EncryptStickTM Lite software, an advanced security solution with 256-bit AES encryption to protect against corruption, loss, and deletion. Rest assured knowing that once you delete files, they are gone for good, and if you do need some extra protection for stored files, you can easily set up a password-protected vault that automatically encrypts data.
Externally the flash drive has a metal alloy base and an extractable connector with convenient thumb slide to prevent dust and other debris from getting into any tiny crevices.
The tiny device has a premium look and feel, with a sleek design and high-gloss mirror finish top. It has a convenient key ring loop making it easy to attach it to your keychain or computer bag while on the go. These models go through extensive testing in the Lexar Quality Labs, facilities with more than 1,100 digital devices to double check they provide exceptional performance, long-lasting quality, competitive compatibility, and overall reliability. For example, they are backwards compatible with USB 2.0 drives as well as compatible with both Mac and PC devices.

The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
