Are They Really Worth it?
But why in this day and age would anyone need something like this and spend that kind of money? The rapid growth of technology, especially in data usage, brings forth certain requirements that these new flash drives promise to provide. Users can encrypt flash drives for security, allow external devices on their own computers and avoid the relatively low data caps, subscription costs and slow transfer speeds of cloud storage. With 4K video around the corner, experts are guessing a niche market will find these devices immensely useful for video transfers.
With this mammoth storage space, users can store up to 80 hours of 4K video, 500,000 MP3 files, 100+ PC games and around 300,000 high definition images. The company issued a press release comparing on what and how much a user can store on this new 2TB drive.
