Symwave and Super Talent to Showcase USB 3.0 RAIDDrive Storage Solution

Symwave, Inc., a silicon supplier of system solutions for SuperSpeed USB devices, and Super Talent Technology Corporation, manufacturer of flash storage solutions and DRAM memory modules, will demonstrate Super Talent’s RAIDDrive, the world’s first and only mobile USB 3.0 flash drive at CES 2010 in Las Vegas, January 7-10.

Symwave’s low power device enables portability without an external power source even from a standard USB 2.0 port. The new Super Talent drive, offered in 32GB, 64GB and 128GB capacities, is 10 times faster than current solutions and is fully backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports.

“Symwave’s SW6318 device was the obvious choice for our new line of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 mobile storage products,” said C.H. Lee, Chief Operating Officer at Super Talent Technology. “Our USB 3.0 RAIDDrive, based on Symwave’s SW6318 device, delivers phenomenal performance of more than 300 MB/sec.”

“Super Talent continues their leadership in USB drives by delivering the world’s first mobile USB 3.0 flash drive,” said John O’Neill, Vice President of Marketing at Symwave. “By combining their patented technology with our SW6318 device, the industry’s first and highest performance RAID storage controller, Super Talent has delivered a new generation of flash drives with truly jaw-dropping performance.”

The USB 3.0 RAIDDrive uses parallel channels of NAND flash in a performance doubling (RAID-0) configuration to achieve the unprecedented performance. Measuring 3.75” x 1.5” x 0.5”, the SuperSpeed drive is compact and portable. Like most USB pen drives or thumb drives, it doesn’t require a separate cable and plugs directly into any USB port. This product is available now from Super Talent resellers worldwide.
