256 GB USB Thumb Drive is Massive, Expensive
Would you run your OS off of this?
See the world's previously largest USB stick and turn your nose up at it? Well, Kingston is back with something that might please a bit better: the 256 GB USB thumb drive.
So now it's entirely possible to have a USB thumb drive that's larger than your internal HDD. It features a read speed of 20 MB/s and a write speed of 10 MB/s. It might also cost more than your computer at a price that's around $900 and it's only available in Europe at the moment.
Tell us, what would you do with a 256 GB thumb drive?

I fail to see the niche at that price point.
I could get 1.5TB External HD for 120$...
at that price point,you don't even buy an ssd that is more useful. It will only be different if you're a spy or something.
$900 for bragging rights and it wouldn't even work. Here's the proof:
>My USB's 4 Gig, yours?
>8
>I've got 256 Gig
>Lol, you don't know the difference between Gb and Mb!!
Stuff it full of pr0n.
Nuff said.
