SanDisk Creates Dual USB Flash Drive that Works on Android Devices

If you've used enough memory sticks in your lifetime, chances are you've come across the name SanDisk. The leading memory storage manufacturer has released yet another flash drive that comes with an additional micro-USB connector (apart from the regular USB 2.0 port), a tweak which allows the flash drive to be used by Android devices.

Vice President of SanDisks's product marketing said “The SanDisk Ultra Dual USB Drive provides a simple, convenient way to offload and backup files from smartphones and tablets – with the peace of mind that comes with the trusted SanDisk brand. This new drive integrates with SanDisk’s Memory Zone app to make freeing up space on mobile devices simpler than ever, improving the user experience.”

At first glance, this looks like a welcome idea, as it removes the stress of wireless transfer from PC to phone (which is notoriously slow) and also takes care of the problem of having your Android device 'engaged' when transferring files through the USB cord to snd from a PC.

SanDisk's Memory Zone app is available on Google's Play Store.
