Memorex introduces inexpensive 'FlashDisc'

By Peter Cohen

Memorex hopes to replace the floppy disc with its new FlashDisc, a
USB storage device that it says is cheap enough for people to share.
The FlashDisc debuts in 16MB capacities; Memorex sells them in packs
of three for $19.99.

The FlashDisc works just like any USB thumbdrive. It features a USB
connector that works with Macs or PCs, but it’s encased in a round
protective plastic case that looks like a disc — it measures 2.3
inches in diameter and about 0.3 inches high.

The package includes labels you can use to identify what’s on the
FlashDisc, and they’re color-coded in black and red, black and
yellow and black and blue.
