The new Corsair Flash Readout USB 2.0 Drive from Corsair Memory uses a Bi-stable Cholesteric Display (BCD) that displays the amount of space left that is available on the flash drive via a pie chart. The BCD display can last up to a year without any batteries. You can even include a personalized ID to display via the alphanumeric label display that can hold up to a maximum of 11 characters at any one time. This USB 2.0 device offers a read speed of 20MB/s and a write speed of up to 7MB/s. You can purchase the Corsair Flash Readout USB 2.0 Drive at $39.99 and $59.99 for the 1GB and 2GB models respectively. Both models come with a 10-year warranty, where the USB standard should have evolved into its tenth iteration already, or even replaced completely by a new format.
Pros : Tells available disk space at a glance
