SanDisk Brings Out Dual USB Drive for Android Device

SanDisk Corporation announced its Ultra Dual USB Drive, a USB flash drive featuring both a micro-USB and a USB 2.0 connector.

The drive is designed for Android smartphone and tablet users who need a way to move content such as photos and videos from their mobile devices. The drive allows users to store and backup files, free-up space, or transfer multimedia between their smartphones, tablets and computers.

“The SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive provides a simple, convenient way to offload and backup files from smartphones and tablets – with the peace of mind that comes with the trusted SanDisk brand,” said Dinesh Bahal, VP, product marketing, SanDisk. “This new drive integrates with SanDisk’s Memory Zone app to make freeing up space on mobile devices simpler than ever, improving the user experience.“

It provides a way to transfer content via an Android-powered smartphone or tablet’s micro-USB port and a computer’s USB connection. While other methods of transferring files from a mobile device to a computer require wires, applications or a wireless set-up, this needs to be connected to a mobile device supporting USB OTG to access up to 64GB of ‘plug and play’ storage capacity. Additionally, the drive’s dual USB ports feature a retractable cover, meaning no caps to lose while still keeping the connectors safe.

The company is making content management easier with the Memory Zone app, available for download on Google Play. With the app, users are able to organize files stored on internal and external phone memory for management, viewing, copying and backup – easing the hassle of freeing up the memory on their mobile device.

Available worldwide and on the website in 16GB to 64GB capacities carrying MSRPs of $19.99 to $49.99.
