The Stylish Money-Themed Flash Drive from LaCie
By Dean • Dec 4th, 2008 • Category: UncategorizedYou must have seen a variety of flash drives with different colours, shapes and designs imprinted on them but the two new entrants by LaCie will definitely make you feel distinctively amazed due to their coin shaped designed. That’s right, the two new flash drives called CurrenKey USB flash drives (where curren implies the currency) redefine the art and craft for portable memory drives completely. Unlike other rectangular flash drives, the CurrenKey USB flash drives incorporate a round shape for the first time and look exactly like a contemporary coin.
These are designed by the 5.5 designers exclusively for LaCie. The two CurrenKeys differ from each other with respect to colour, storage capacity and of course, price. One of them can accommodate 4GB of data and is available in bronze finish at a price of £19.99 whereas the other can hold 8GB of digital media and features a silver finish. You can get it at a price of £34.99. But both are obviously far behind the LaCie Brick Desktop Hard Drive 500GB in terms of storage capacity, although they make up for this deficiency with slimmer sizes, an interesting design, and low price. Both the flash drives can be opened by rotating the coin’s edge and plugged in to any Windows PC, Mac or Linux machine. Shock-proof, die-cast metal is used in making of these flash drives which gives it extreme endurance against hard drops, knocks and shakes. So you will never end up frustrated because of crashed data.
