Now that flash memory has got to a price competitive with mechanical storage, we're starting to see it crop up in all sorts of places. One of those places is backup, where the speed of the memory presents a clear advantage over a traditional disk drive.
With that in mind, Sandisk has brought out a new backup-focused USB drive, which is the first in the world to work its magic with just a button press - no software installation needed. The capacities aren't huge yet - the biggest is 64GB - but that should cover the contents of 'My Documents' for the vast majority of consumers.
The SanDisk Ultra Backup will go on sale in April, and cost between $40 (£28) and $200 (£137) depending on the size you plump for. How big is your "My Documents" folder? How about when you don't include the porn? Let us know in the comments.
