Nexcopy a annoncé leur nouvelle cible 20 Duplicateur d'écart-type plus tôt aujourd'hui. Certainement un dispositif pour l'ubergeek qui est dans des données chargeant des médias bloqués de Digital. À première vue vous vous demandez « qui voudrait 20 copies de leur carte d'écart-type de leur appareil-photo ? » Mais il est clair que Nexcopy ne chasse pas en bas des types regardant pour tirer 100 copies de leurs photos de Vegas de week-end [ou sont elles ?]. Le duplicateur d'écart-type est adapté vers les compagnies qui envoient des applications de logiciel sur des cartes d'écart-type pour des dispositifs de champ, ou doit contrôler un grand nombre de cartes de miniSD pour une armée des pilotes de paume.

Le SD200PC fonctionne également avec des cartes de microSD ainsi les compagnies de téléphone auront un chargement de jour de champ vers le haut de leurs téléphones avec le matériel de promo pour les clients chanceux. Quel sens de marques, parce que ces Smartphones et PDAs obtiennent si puissant et les médias a tellement la capacité, subsistance de beaucoup de gens la majeure partie de leurs données sur des cartes de microSD de nos jours.

L'unité se relie par l'intermédiaire de l'USB et a 20 ports numérotés d'écart-type ainsi il est facile d'identifier que la carte d'écart-type est quel. L'unité vient avec le logiciel qui soutient les formats FAT et FAT32 et inclut l'appui de NTFS avec leur fonction de copie de peu-pour-peu qui soutient également des paquets de distribution de Linux pour ces applications incluses que ces ubergeeks semblent rêver vers le haut. Tous les formats d'écart-type sont des appuis et pour les utilisateurs non-ainsi-irritables, le logiciel de Nexcopy a un magicien du travail pour vous guider par le processus de duplication d'écart-type.

Le duplicateur d'écart-type a un prix courant de $1.299 et disponible pour la livraison immédiate. (plus…)

Nous avons vu l'abondance des données solutions de chiffrage pour l'USB, mais que diriez-vous de la véritable gestion de droites de Digital pour l'USB conduit et leur contenu ? Bien, Nexcopy semble penser la même chose. Nexcopy a teamed avec TrusCont pour offrir DRM vrai pour clignoter des commandes.

Protection de copy d'USB includes the ability to copy protect .exe files and .pdf files. With both formats you can set time limits, password protection, anti-copy and anti-rip protection. In addition, the technology will apply copy and paste restrictions and printing rights to pdf documents. Sounds like real digital rights management to me.

The enhanced USB drive has more in it’s back pocket than just copy protection - which is ground breaking enough - but includes the ability for end-users to configure a USB CD-ROM partition, USB Read Only partition or combination of those plus an Open partition for general read/write use.

For the ultimate in flexibility, the flash drive can be configured again and again with the USB CD-ROM partition or USB Read Only partition so if you’re looking to make your own custom U3 drive, looking to mess around with auto-launch software or need a combination of both for some high end application, this is it.

Nexcopy is offering a TSFD Publisher Kit which is a combination of the USB duplicator plus, TrusCont’s USB copy protection and USB configuration utility along with various bundles of enhanced TSFD USB drives (qty 50, 100, 300, 500+).

I’ve requested a drive to see what this is all about and will report back.

We reported a while back on the Nexcopy USB Flash Drive Duplicator and today VConsole announces a similar system but larger capacity and encryption technology.

The VConsole appears to be lightening fast as well, with a copy speed of 91 seconds for 512MB of information.  Taking a quick visit to their site I see the 91 seconds copy speed is the same for their 21 drive system, 42 drive system and 60 drive system.  Hmm…strange how those speeds do show, even the slightest, sign of degradation in transfer speed.

Putting that aside, the 128 encryption function is a nice benefit, although not included with the base unit for $8,000, it does make you wonder what the price tag is for that feature.  From what I’ve seen, most USB flash drive duplicators are used to copy content to give-away USB drives and if that’s the case, I’m not sure why you’d want to encrypt a viral marketing gadget.  However, with USB getting more popular as a distribution medium, I’m sure there are plenty of uses for the encryption function.

The USB flash drive duplicator can work as a stand alone system or the user can launch a GUI interface to see more details.  Vconsole mentions they have a multi-casting technology in the works for stringing multiple units together for expanded production.  This would be of a big benefit for the guys over seas making the drives.

I like the VConsole product, but I honestly see a better fit for the general market with the Nexcopy USB Duplicator and with the attractive price tag of $1,299 verse the VConsole $8,000 unit, you’ll need to take a hard, close look at which system best fits your needs.

Update: Nexcopy reports the USB duplicator will duplicate 30MBs of data to all 20 flash drives in about 40 seconds. The USB duplicator will copy 250MBs of data in about 3.5 minutes. So the USB duplicator has good performance on data copy speeds.

Nexcopy announced earlier this week their USB200PC USB Duplicator is available for purchase. This unit appears to be the easiest and most economical way to load content to USB flash memory. The USB duplicator is a PC based system which copies fro m a master location to 20 slave ports. I would think this an excellent product for those looking to produce interactive product information, sales presentations or even USB music albums on flash memory.

Granted this could all be done on CD or DVD, but the idea I like about USB flash, is it being extremely portable, more durable than optical media (no scratching or damage from direct sun), and can be reused again and again as a big, fat floppy drive by the user.

The USB duplicator concept seems to be a great method to manage an arsenal of flash memory, whether it be content loading to a new set of flash drives for a trade show, or updating a rotation of information to a group of USB drives (say for sales force or medical applications).

The Nexcopy USB200PC USB duplicator has some interesting features. The software will not only duplicate data, but an option to duplicate only new and newer data. Meaning, if you don’t want to over-write current data on the device, selecting the Copy New and Newer means it will only add data to the existing drive. This function also updates an old file with the newer version. This feature in itself makes USB drive flash management extremely easy and convenient.

The Nexcopy USB duplicator is priced at $1,299 for a 20 target USB copier so the solution wont kill your budget (like some $10,000+ systems I’ve seen).
