Pretec Debuts 8 GB SDHC Card, 16 GB Flash Drive


Current Issue

Pretec has announced the highest capacity SD card to date, their new 8 GB SD-HC. This new card has twice the capacity of cards announced by Panasonic, Toshiba and SanDisk, and means that SD cards will soon be available in capacities as high as the largest CompactFlash cards.

The Pretec 8GB SD card is compliant with SD 2.0 (SDHC) specification with access speed up to 20MB/sec. It is now available for key customer sampling at unit price USD 299. Mass production is scheduled by Q4/2006.

SDHC cards are recongnised by new SDHC host devices differently than standard SD cards and are not backward compatible with legacy SD format host devices; in which, SDHC cards can only work with SDHC compatible host devices. Since Pretec is the 1st in the world to offer 4GB standard SD cards, and now also offers 4GB SDHC cards, Pretec will provide patent-pending SD-Tuner technology for customers to have an easy transition between the incompatibility of SD 1.1 and SD 2.0.

Pretec has also released a 16GB USB Flash Drive, which is nearly the equivalent to 4 DVDs or 23 compact discs and can store around 5400 photos in regular size or more than 4000 MP3 songs.
