OCZ Unveils 8-Gigabyte Ultra-Slim “Mega-Kart” USB 2.0 Flash Card



OCZ Technology Group, a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high reliability memory, today announced the Mega-Kart, a ultra-high capacity USB flash drive. With 8GBs of memory, the OCZ Mega-Kart series is the ultimate data storage solution for today’s computer enthusiasts and business professionals on the go. The beauty of the new Mega-Kart series is the unparalleled, ultra-slim architecture that is thin enough to carry in a wallet.


The OCZ Mega-Kart is a dream-come-true for individuals who need to carry large quantities of data, including presentations, programs, films, and entire portfolios, yet don’t want to lug around a laptop or bulky pocket drive. The Mega-Kart conveniently fits in the smallest places so it can always be handy to access your files and is large enough to never worry about being forced to delete files to add new ones.

“Our goal is to deliver the complete range of USB flash solutions, and the new Mega-Kart focuses on delivering more capacity for easier transfer of large files and even complete programs,” commented Alex Mei, VP of Marketing, OCZ Technology. “The Mega-Kart series will deliver high capacity storage starting at 8GB in a portable credit-card size form factor for effortless transportation of your biggest files.”

Users can access files stored on the Mega-Kart from the convenience of any USB port thanks to the built-in, high-speed USB 2.0 cable with True “Plug and Play” functionality. Instantaneously play music and movies, view images, or open files as if the Mega-Kart was an onboard hard drive. The Mega-Kart features a glowing LED to signal read/write activity.

The OCZ Mega-Kart Flash Drive series will be initially available in 8GB, and larger capacities will follow shortly. OCZ is committed to providing superior products and service to our customers. The OCZ Mega-Kart is designed to be the most portable large-capacity USB flash memory drive on the market and comes backed with a 1 year warranty for the ultimate peace of mind.

dont be fooled by the usb 2 factor.. these things are very slow compared to say a usb 2.5 inch portable hardrive..

in smaller sizes they perform quick enough but for shifting 8 gigs from A to B they will take some waiting for..

flash memory is slow.. and the 8 gigs aint as usefull as it sounds..
