DataTraveler Elite 3.0 (Kingston part number: DTE30\/xxGB) is based on the USB 3.0 standard and is an economical choice for consumers looking for fast data transfers, enabling users to store and transfer their digital library quickly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs consumers store and carry more HD video, digital artwork, music and presentations, faster devices are required to keep pace with one\u2019s digital lifestyle,\u201d said Nathan Su, Flash Memory Sales Director, APAC Region, Kingston. \u201cWith more PCs shipping with USB 3.0 ports, the new DataTraveler Elite adds to Kingston\u2019s USB 3.0 family and is the perfect solution for those who require faster transfer speeds without breaking the budget.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DataTraveler Elite 3.0 helps consumers save time. For example, in internal testing, DataTraveler Elite 3.0 was approximately two times faster than a standard USB 2.0 Flash drive copying over 22GB worth of data. The testing was done with a single Blu-ray\u2122 movie, over 10,000 photos and more than 4,000 songs.<\/p>\n<p>DataTraveler Elite 3.0 is also backwards compatible with USB 2.0. Available in 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB capacities, DataTraveler Elite 3.0 features a sleek, capless and retractable design to protect the USB connector, allowing users to keep the drive with them at all times as it can be easily attached to a key ring or lanyard.<\/p>\n<p>A video of DataTraveler Elite 3.0 can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/news.gapmarketing.com.au\/ch\/23709\/2dd16bf\/1611675\/9c3c4hq0b.html\">www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LGLDlOSqURU&amp;feature=youtu.be<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Kingston\u2019s DataTraveler Elite 3.0 is backed by a five-year warranty, free technical support, and legendary Kingston reliability.
