Kingston

I was about to mention folks in Seattle will love this flash drive, but since New York gets more rain fall per year, it’s the big apple city slickers who’ll appreciate this one. Kingston released a rugged USB flash drive that is water proof up to 4 feet. So if you’re puddle jumping and this jumps from your pocket, the data is safe and secure. Included in the Kingston description is “withstand harsh operating conditions” with featured titanium-coated stainless steel casing…hmm sound real close to the SanDisk Titanium.

Included with the purchase is a 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) software utility to keep those private pictures documents safe.

Available in standard sizes of:
512MB / $40USD
1GB / $62USD
2GB / $108USD
4GB / $244USD

Kingston data storage
