Re: Kingston Technology First to Market with 128GB USB Flash Drive
Till yet I just saw an 64GB flash drive and 125GB is really an awesome usb. That can hold up a much higher amount of data comparison to the regular one. But I found as the size of the pen drive increases it becomes much slower and slower. For example if I try to copy an entire data from 64GB pen drive then the system performance very slow. Does this can be the limitation of hardware. There is also an great need for increasing the hardware performance also.
