SanDisk Memory Vault launched

Posted on February, Wednesday 01, 2012 By itVAR News Network

SanDisk Corporation, a global leader in flash memory storage solutions has introduced the SanDisk Memory Vault, the first product in a new category of devices that are designed for long-term data preservation. SanDisk announced the device as part of a comprehensive new suite of retail products.

The SanDisk Memory Vault is a photo album for the digital age that allows consumers to preserve images in one reliable location. The device connects to a computer’s USB port for easy drag-and-drop functionality and features a sleek, ruggedized, metallic design that looks great on any desktop and fits into any drawer.
 
 “SanDisk already offers great image-capture products, and we’ve built upon that expertise to create a new category of image-preservation products,” said Hon Wai Cheah, Director, Product Marketing Management, Asia Pacific, SanDisk Corporation.
 
SanDisk also issued results from an online survey conducted on its behalf by Harris Interactive from July 28-August 1, 2011 among 2,294 U.S. adults aged 18 and older2. The survey found that 79 percent of U.S. adults with digital photos plan on passing them down to future generations.

Photos are so precious that 64 percent of U.S. adults would not consider destroying their family photo collection for any amount of money, not even for one million dollars.  Hard drives contain moving parts and CDs can scratch; the SanDisk Memory Vault delivers the long-term reliability that valuable photos deserve.
 
The device utilizes SanDisk’s Chronolock technology, which incorporates the key elements of advanced solid-state storage to create a proprietary memory management solution. SanDisk conducted accelerated temperature cycling tests that simulated the effects of data retention over long periods of time. This allows the device to provide consumers with peace of mind that their precious photos and videos will be preserved for up to 100 years.
 
 The SanDisk Memory Vault is available in 8 gigabyte (GB) and 16GB capacities and can store thousands of images and hours of HD video4. The device carries MSRPs of Rs. 3,499 (8GB) to Rs. 5,499 (16GB) and includes a lifetime limited warranty.
