Super Talent Launches USB Drives to Support Windows™ Vista™ ReadyBoost™
And Exhibits Products at Intel® Microsoft® Ready 2 Rock Road Shows
San Jose, California - November 6, 2006 -- Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of memory modules and flash products, today announced a line of USB drives that are designed and tested specifically to support the ReadyBoost feature of Microsoft Windows Vista.
Windows Vista introduces a new concept in adding memory to a system. Windows ReadyBoost lets you use a removable USB flash drive to improve system performance, without the bother of opening your chassis to upgrade system memory. ReadyBoost improves system performance by taking advantage of the extremely fast Access Time offered by flash technology.
Windows ReadyBoost technology is reliable and provides protection of the data stored on your device. You can remove the flash device at any time without any loss of data or adverse effects to the system. Additionally, data on the USB drive is encrypted to help prevent unauthorized access to the data in the event your USB drive should be lost or stolen.
As one of the world's top manufacturers of USB flash drives, Super Talent has produced over eight million (8,000,000) USB drives in the company's state-of-the-art San Jose, California factory. These new USB drives are designed and tested to enhance performance of Windows Vista, and are guaranteed by Super Talent to meet the speed requirements to support ReadyBoost.

According to Super Talent VP of Business Operations, Mr. CH Lee, "This line of ReadyBoost USB drives will give Windows Vista users an easy way to add system memory and boost system performance." These products are currently offered only in the Super Talent DH-GY style, gray aluminum casing. These products will begin shipping to Super Talent resellers and distributors worldwide in early November. Expected street price on the 1GB model is $29, and the 2GB unit $59.
These and other Super Talent products will be on display at nine Intel Microsoft Ready 2 Rock Road Shows across North America from October through December.
