The new DataTraveler Ultimate Generation Terabyte (GT) is the world’s highest capacity USB Flash drive. It can store up to 130 hours of Full HD video or 256 thousand photos from a 24 MP camera.

Kingston Digital, the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, announced today that at CES 2017, it will have on show the new DataTraveler Ultimate Generation Terabyte (GT), the world’s highest capacity USB Flash drive. DataTraveler Ultimate GT offers up to 2TB of storage space and USB 3.1 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) performance.

The next generation in Flash drive performance, USB 3.1 Gen 1 is the next major revision to the Universal Serial Bus (USB). It offers the same ease-of-use and plug-and-play capabilities as previous generations of USB technologies – with a 10X performance increase and better power management.

Power users will have the ability to store massive amounts of data in a small form factor, including up to 70 hours of 4K video on a single 2TB drive, says Kingston. The company adds that “DataTraveler Ultimate GT offers superior quality in a high-end design as it is made of a zinc-alloy metal casing for shock resistance. Its compact size gives the tech enthusiast or professional user an easily portable solution to store and transfer their high capacity files.
