The world's smallest USB drive has more storage than an iPhone 17
At a time when storage space commands a premium price, SanDisk's Extreme Fit drive is worth a look.
The SanDisk Extreme Fit USB drive, touted as the world's smallest, offers more storage capacity than even the top iPhone 17 model. This diminutive drive, priced between $30 for 64GB and $219 for 1TB, has captured attention due to its budget-friendly storage solutions amid soaring memory and storage costs. At just 0.73 x 0.54 x 0.63 inches and weighing a mere 0.1 ounces, the Extreme Fit is as small as it is impressive.
SanDisk describes it as a 'plug-and-stay' device, promising discreet storage expansion for laptops. The company credits its miniature size to a proprietary interposer board allowing a vertical USB-C connector design. While not reaching NVMe speeds, the drive boasts read speeds up to 400 MB/s across models ranging from 128GB to 1TB, with the smallest 64GB drive clocking in at 300 MB/s.
