Kingston Releases First 128GB Flash Thumb Drive
Posted 06/16/09 at 10:07:46 AM by Paul Lilly
Yesterday, the largest USB flash drives on the planet checked in at 64GB. Today, Kingston claims the capacity crown with the release of its DataTraveler 200 (DT200), the world's first 128GB USB flash drive that's twice the capacity of yesterday's biggest thumb drives.
"The new DT200's robust storage capability lets consumers store complete libraries of music, photos, and videos.," said Andrew Ewing, USB business manager at Kingston. "It is also a great tool for business users who carry around large databases or files."
Also available in 32GB and 64GB capacities, the DT200 series boasts read and write speeds of up to 20MB/s and 10MB/s, respectively. Other features include a capless design and password protection.
No word yet on availability, however pricing has been set at $120 (32GB), $213 (64GB), and $546 (128GB). Ouch!

Whoever wrote the headline has either been in a cave for the past year or is on some serious drugs. Several manufacturers have had 128GB USB drives out already including the Crownchip DC-10 128GB drive which sells for a hell of a lot less than the kingston one.

The sad thisng is, as storage devices get larger, so do the file systems and files we use. Remember when we used to buy games on floppies? You could get an entire version of Windows on 4 floppy disks back in the day. Nowadays, it would take 4 or 5 floppies just for one mp3 file.
Oh, and BTW, we'll never get to see what comes in 2019, because the world ends on 12.21.2012, remember? :)

It's crazy isn't it? I bought my first computer out of school in 1998 and it had a 4 GB hard drive with 32 MB of RAM. I remember thinking that I wouldn't even come close to filling that HD up and I was right.
It blows my mind that 10 years later we can fit 128 GB on something smaller than a stick of gum and now I have 4 GB of RAM. Back then that would have been lunacy!!
Can't wait to see what 2019 has to offer!

the sad thing is the 64 gig, and 128 gig (obviously) were bigger than the hard drive in my computer 6 months ago
Okay?

They could've waited for the USB 3.0, but they didn't. Anyway, disregarding that, it is pretty impressive: 128 Gigs. Dang! You could run an operating system on that! I'd like to have one of those. Or not.(The price.) Big Danny :)
Not yet....
