Gizmo is Crucial's USB flash drive product, and they have just announced the Gizmo Overdrive. This is, as you might expect, a faster version of the Gizmo
The Gizmo Overdrive supports writing at up to 13MB/s and reading at 25MB/s. As flash drives have increased in density, sluggish transfer rates have lead to excessive finger-tapping, which the Overdrive seeks to stamp out.
Also included in the new release is a version of the Overdrive with security software, which is basically drive password & encryption software for the drive; something we've seen on other drives too.
The devices are available in 512MiB, 1GiB or 2GiB sizes and are supported by the usual spread of recent Operating Systems.
