Aren’t we all so lazy about when it comes to handling USB flash drive. We usually end up dropping it on the way, sitting on it, leaving it near stove and in the end we get our data all ruined. A company called LaCie, introduces LaCie XtremKey (USB disc) which is a truly rugged, heat proof, cold proof and capable of bearing all extreme conditions. Infact LaCie calls it the World’s most adventurous USB flash Drive. In its video they have shown how it stays perfect when a 10 ton truck passes on it, or when you boil it or freeze, it stays absolutely protected.
The press release says
LaCie, originator of the flat, award-winning key-shaped USB flash drives, shields the XtremKey’s premium flash memory modules inside a 2mm metal pipe casing. Sealed with wear-resistant screw threads and a rubber O-ring, it is watertight up to 100 meters. The LaCie XtremKey is also resistant to 5-meter drops, fierce heat and bitter cold – it holds up in any environment, no matter where you take it (+200°C / -50°). The USB key is made of zamac, “a metal alloy composed of zinc, aluminum, magnesium and copper that’s so strong, it can withstand the pressure of a 10-ton truck.”
