SanDisk has yet another (apparent) ace up their sleeves with the SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0. This so happens to be a USB flash drive that will not only carry the ordinary high speed USB 3.0 connector that we have all come to know and love, it will also boast of a micro-USB connector to boot – letting you enjoy extremely fast file transfers between On The Go (OTG)-enabled Android devices, PC and Mac computers.
Of course, this particular peripheral would make plenty of sense. After all, smartphones these days tend to come with ever increasing amounts of storage space, not to mention a hike in the megapixel count found in the integrated cameras. This would mean that your hard drive would be filled up a whole lot faster, but at the very least with the SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0, you can transfer those massive-sized photos captured over your last few holidays to another device via micro-USB.
Shifting photos and videos from your smartphone via micro-USB is a good idea, since it would free up more space for you to continue with your next batch of photos that you intend to use one day to tell a story. The new SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0 will come with a slick retractable design for easy usability, not to mention a longer micro-USB connector that will cater for device cases or port covers.
It is said that the SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0 is capable of sharing content through an Android-powered smartphone or tablet’s micro-USB port without having to own a cable, email or wireless set-up. Not only that, transferring large files especially, is going to take a far shorter time now thanks to USB 3.0 performance that offers up to 130MB/s from the drive to the computer.
Do look forward to the SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive 3.0 in 16GB to 64GB capacities, with pricing standing at $22.99 to $64.99, respectively.
