Excuse me, sir. Have you heard about our lord and savior, Kingston HyperX Predator?

u/lucaspiller · 52 pointsr/DataHoarder

I came across this last night while browsing eBay. Thought you guys might like a chuckle. There's a load of them, even from Western sellers. If you read the small print, it's basically an 8GB flash drive with hacked firmware. Well I can dream...

Edit:

Apparently you can get 1TB flash drives, not for quite the same price though:

Reminds me of one of my girlfriend's Comp class quizzes that just happened last month. I was helping her out since she didn't really understand or know a lot about tech. This was one of the questions;

> What's the highest capacity flash drive currently available;
>
> A. 16GB
>
> B. 24GB
>
> C. 64GB
>
> D. 1TB

Well since I know Kingston came out with a 1TB flash drive last year I knew for a 100% fact that D was the right answer.

Nope.

And worst of all it didn't tell us what the correct answer was and since most of the powerpoints the professor gives to her are labeled "2012" I bet the "correct" answer was B. I'm still pissed off.

u/Elrabin · 32 pointsr/pcmasterrace

They can, you can buy a 1TB usb drive

No one is buying them, so they aren't making many

I got a 256gb key for work, it has every single microsoft product on it, bootable, plus Ubuntu, RHEL and VMware and is bootable to install any of those OS's

u/YouGottaKillYourMind · 25 pointsr/pokemongo

I always enjoyed this way of putting it:
>The iPhone 6 uses an Apple-designed 64 bit Cortex A8 ARM architecture composed of approximately 1.6 billion transistors. It operates at 1.4 GHZ and can process instructions at a rate of approximately 1.2 instructions every cycle in each of its 2 cores. That’s 3.36 billion instructions per second. Put simply, the iPhone 6’s clock is 32,600 times faster than the best Apollo era computers and could perform instructions 120,000,000 times faster. You wouldn’t be wrong in saying an iPhone could be used to guide 120,000,000 Apollo era spacecraft to the moon, all at the same time.

You could, technically, take the amount of computing power in an iPhone 6, and send 120,000,000 Apollo 11s to the moon. 120 MILLION.

Here's another. This is a picture from 1956 of a 5-megabyte hard drive being brought out of a plane.

Sixty years later, here's the biggest consumer-available USB drive, which is 200,000 times bigger in storage size. It just blows me away.

u/Morczor · 13 pointsr/pcmasterrace

I'm 99% sure that it's not actually 2 TB.

The largest I know of is 1 TB and costs a bit over $1000.

EDIT: Found this, pretty much the same thing as OP has but a "Sony" - basically confirms it's fake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWeceqSKVNE


EDIT 2: There's a pretty good deal on the REAL 1 TB one on Amazon

u/ion-tom · 13 pointsr/promos

My thoughts too. The library of congress is under 20 TB.
You can now buy a 1 TB thumb stick if you want A Mars Mission has no reason NOT to bring copies of every written work ever created.

That all said, don't leave out the Red Mars series by KSR!

u/JoshuaGD · 11 pointsr/DJs

i just made the switch from traktor and the S4 to CDJs and to be honest there is nothing more liberating than being able to show up with a pair of thumb drives and a pair of headphones and performing just as freeform as I did in traktor, albeit with 1/100th the library access (but hey, maybe one day I'll win the lottery and upgrade to the new shit).

u/RE4PER_ · 10 pointsr/pcmasterrace

Wow I just found out that they actually exist. You can get one here for a whopping 899.99

u/fictionthatspulp · 10 pointsr/pcmasterrace

Hopefully you didn't spend much OP. There is no such thing as a 2tb flash drive. Kingston currently makes a 1tb flash drive which costs ~900 USD but it looks gooooooood. A simple google search will tell you that sandisk doesn't make a flash drive of that size. It'll fill up way before that 100gb mark. I'd say around 8-32gb.

u/nill0c · 8 pointsr/aww

So you haven't seen this yet huh?

u/solaybro · 6 pointsr/newzealand

On amazon you can buy this actual 1TB one for $879USD.

u/Devvils · 6 pointsr/shittykickstarters

1TB is here now, 2TB not far away. But not much of a market for $2730 USB drives.

u/sauceprovider1 · 6 pointsr/pics

These 3 are ridiculous. Especially the micro sd one.

Flash Drive

u/webchimp32 · 6 pointsr/Futurology

That's damn fat, that's probably 3-4 boards stacked. One I had that died not long ago had two boards stacked.

u/pr0grammer · 6 pointsr/Android

As are 1TB flash drives, if you're willing to lay down a serious chunk of change.

u/Sweatervest42 · 5 pointsr/videos

Download http://enbdev.com/download_mod_reallife.html v0.290, and then get my preset on http://www.nexusmods.com/reallife/. Put all replacement .ini files into a new loadorder, and place it on a 1tb flash drive. I recommend this one, but you might be tighter and that drive is pretty chunky. Then shove it up your ass and your all set.

Edit: Happy cake day

High capacity thumb drives for really cheap are usually frauds. The thumb drive will report itself as 1TB to your computer or device, but will only actually have a much smaller storage size. Once the actual storage space runs out, you will run into huge problems with data corruption as your device tries to write to storage that just isn't there.

A 1TB hard drive (like the passport you mentioned) will be much cheaper than a legit 1TB thumb drive, and will probably be faster too.

EDIT: There are legit high capacity thumb drives, but they are very expensive. For instance, the 1TB kingston retails for over $1000.

u/RiderAnton · 3 pointsr/Tucson

There's a usb stick for every game if you've got the money to burn

u/17thspartan · 3 pointsr/DataHoarder

To expand on that:

2TB portable external HDD: $70

1TB portable external SSD: $310 - $397

1TB USB Flash Drive: $700? - $2.5k

The Amazon result was the only I could find that was selling a 1TB flash drive (ebay has them too, but ebay also has a lot of fakes); which I believe had a starting price of 700 dollars when it was first released. But given that nobody seems to sell them anymore, it seems this Amazon retailer decided to jack up the price.

Sure looks like a scam. The biggest flash drive I found on Amazon is 1TB from Kingston selling for US$879

u/no_tourist · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace

like this?

u/crysisnotaverted · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace
u/wear-that-hat · 2 pointsr/EDC

I very much want one of these... some day I'll give one to myself as a birthday present or something, but until then I really can't justify the cost.

edit: better yet, one of these

u/semperverus · 2 pointsr/wiiu

Well, here's what I found on amazon. For the low low price of $915 (on sale from $2,310, so you know it's a heck of a steal!), one of these puppies can be yours!

Though, still not quite 2TB.

u/MiffedMouse · 2 pointsr/theydidthemath

The computer with the best memory used during WWII (that I could find after just a few minutes of searching) was the Collossus, with around 6kB of data. The Z3 is the largest German computer and is just a little bit behind, but still rounds out to around 6kB. Here is an image of it next to a human:
http://www.rtd-net.de/Z3.html

Assuming the human is 6' tall, the computer has approximate dimensions: 6' x 6' (there are two cabinets) x 1'.

If we stack the computers so they are flat against each other (the closest linear packing we can achieve) we get 20,000 miles / 1' = 106 million Zune Z3 databanks. This works out to approximate 600 gigabytes of data. This would fit in the horribly expensive, one terrabyte Kingston Datatraveler:
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-DataTraveler-Predator-1TB-DTHXP30/dp/B00E65QM8O

So... yes.

UNLESS we can put computers side-by-side. (20,000 miles is a unit of length, not volume). This Scientific American article puts the human brain data storage at approximately 2.5 petabytes (2*10^15 bytes):
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-is-the-memory-capacity/?page=1

If we put the Zune Z3 databanks in 4000 "columns" (for a total width of 4.6 miles) we can fit 2.5 petabytes, which is significantly more than any modern flash drive.

In fact, storing the 2.5 petabytes on a single system would require the 20 pB Titan supercomputer that debuted 2 years ago:
http://www.cnet.com/pictures/titan-supercomputer-debuts-with-20-petabyte-performance-pictures/

TL;DR: Yes if it is a single file column of machines, no if you actually have enough machines to store a human brain (which is 4.6 miles wide x 20,000 miles long).

u/Mr_Luciferiuss · 1 pointr/talesfromtechsupport

I think I can beat you

I didn't buy one (yet), but I really want to.

u/errl_dabbingtons · 1 pointr/gaming
u/slipperman1 · 1 pointr/humorousreviews

Here's the link for the product.

u/morpheus2n2 · 1 pointr/xboxone

This here IS the highest capacity you can get on a GENUINE flash drive and its not CHEAP!!!

It is far far cheaper to just get an external HDD

u/Little_Dude · 1 pointr/pcmasterrace

For $915 each, you could get [1 TB flash drives] (http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-DataTraveler-Predator-1TB-DTHXP30/dp/B00E65QM8O). I would assume that you could fit at least 20 of these in the space of 1 4 TB 3.5" hard drive. That would mean you could get 20 683 TB, or 13.660 Petabytes. Now, the latency would be terrible with a tesla as the google fiber would transfer at the speed of light in glass, which is [about 200,000 km/s] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_light). Distance from NY to LA is 2776 mi according to google maps which is 3663 km. 3663 km / 200,000 km/s = 0.018 seconds to transfer one bit. So for the tesla, you get a latency of 41 hours but a data transfer rate of 13.66PB 10^6 GB/(41h*3600s) = 92.55 GB/s. Google fiber has a latency of 0.018 s but a data transfer rate of 1GB/s. So, you would get a 92.55 times greater data rate with the tesla, but if you decided you had to change your data, it would take a long time to turn your tesla around.

u/HahaHallo · 1 pointr/talesfromtechsupport

Not getting one of these?

u/MrDave19 · 1 pointr/photography

If a hard drive is too big for you, try one of these instead.

Making large USB sticks isn't that hard. It's just a matter of how many chips you can stick on a circuit board. Look how damn small a microsd card is. You can easily stick 6 of them into the case of a regular-sized USB stick. That's 768GB already. Sure, technically it's not that easy, but the real reason you don't see 1TB USB sticks is, that they are just damn expensive. This thing is almost a thousand dollars:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E65QM8O/

Besides that, USB sticks just aren't the kind of thing where this much space is needed.

u/Batmans_Cumbox · 1 pointr/softwaregore
u/mpnordland · 1 pointr/FOSSPhotography

Um, looks a tad small to be packing any reasonable amount of storage. Unless you want to shell out for something like this, it's not going to be very pocketable.

u/ifactor · -1 pointsr/pics

I think 5's a bit late:

http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-DataTraveler-Predator-1TB-DTHXP30/dp/B00E65QM8O

And you mean >1TB I think.
