Imagine 365 movies/50,000 photos/45,500 MP3 songs into one small pendrive. Amazing isn’t it? It’s amazing because we are not talking external hard drives here; it’s a pen-drive! Kingston’s new DataTraveler® 310 USB pen drive has the storage capacity of a whooping 256GB which makes it the highest capacity pendrive available as of yet. Its twin sister DataTraveler® 300 also boasts the same storage capacity.

Kingston DataTraveler® 310 USB Flash drive is available worldwide and you can buy it from Kingston’s site for $1,108. Pretty hefty isn’t it? The storage capacity and the price ;).
