Apacer has just released the fastest 200X speed USB flash drive on the market, the Handy Steno HT203. With read/write speeds that reach 30 MB per second and memory sizes up to 4 GB, the Handy Steno HT203 satisfies customers that demand high-speed, large capacity portable storage. The Handy Steno HT203 won the Good Design Award (G-Mark) in Japan for its elegant style and design. Utilizing advanced dual-channel technology, the HT203 offers uncompromised speed, style and capacity in portable flash storage.

According to Apacer's Chief Product Officer, Elton Fang, Apacer is dedicated to designing the most stylish and fashionable user-friendly devices that meet or exceed the needs of today's digital lifestyle. Apacer's Handy Steno HT203 is designed for professionals or others that simply want style and the fastest flash drive available in the world. The dual-channel technology gives the HT203 the speed to support any type of customer use. For work or entertainment, the HT203 can support it.

The dual-channel technology means the HT203 USB drive can handle two data paths at the same time to significantly increase data transfer rate. This is what gives the HT203 its 200X blistering speed. As an example, the read time for a 30 MB engineering drawing file only takes about 1 second. What this means to an end user is, reviewing ten or twenty 30 MB engineering drawings like this means they can be transferred or read directly from the drive in seconds.

The 4 GB HT203 provides great data storage capacity to store more pictures, video and other important files. The 4 GB drive uses an advanced 16 Gbit flash chip which integrates mechanical and electrical components to maintain an extremely small and compact size. This is the reason why the 4 GB HT203 can offer such performance and capacity in such a small-sized device.

Apacer's Handy Steno HT203 has a USB 2.0 (backward compatible with USB 1.1) interface, is plug and play compatible, and is compact and light. The thickness is only 9.5 mm and is designed to leave more space for other devices using adjacent USB ports on a PC. The HT203 uses a wire loop to attach the cap that also doubles as a very secure way to attach the HT203 to purses, backpacks, key chains and anywhere else. The LED easily shows the read/write state, even in direct sunlight. It comes with a stylish, user-friendly cradle and extension cord for use on a table or desktop to let people easily plug in the HT203 USB drive. This is much easier than finding the USB port on the side or back of a computer. Look for Apacer's new Handy Steno HT203 in November in 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB and 4 GB sizes.
