Diamond Bar, Calif. - August 8, 2007—Advanced Media, Inc., manufacturer and marketer of the popular RIDATA brand of recordable CD and DVD media, electronic storage products, and digital media accessories, is pleased to announce its RIDATA Yego Drive is now available at retailing giant WalMart.com and at the popular CompUSA.com. The uniquely designed hub drive allows users to securely store data and add on more USB powered devices. "Advanced Media once again leads the way in providing innovative solutions for digital storage," remarked Harvey Liu, Advanced Media president. "RIDATA USB Hub Drives are uniquely designed to allow easy connection of additional USB devices. Users now have access to a virtually endless stream of data, photos, or music without running out of USB ports or continually changing devices. Additionally, units may be linked together for even greater USB connectivity and to add storage capacity."
A key concern with any flash storage device is security. To assure privacy and protection, the Yego Drive features advanced partition and security functions that make it possible for users to create password-protected sectors for the storage of personal or highly confidential material. A tie-style LED indicator shows usage status, assuring there is never any doubt as to which port is currently in use.
Offering true plug-and-play convenience, no external power or battery is needed, as the USB port on any compatible desktop or laptop computer powers the Yego Drive. A power-saving mode reduces power consumption. The new RIDATA products are compliant with USB 2.0 with a full-speed transfer rate of up to 480Mbps. The drive is also backward compatible with USB 1.1.
The Yego Drive works with the following operating systems: Windows(R) 98SE/ME/2000/XP; Linux(tm) Kernel 2.4 or later and Mac(tm) OS8.6 or later. Users for Windows(r) 98/98SE may download required drivers from www.ritekusa.com. All are EMC compliant meeting CE, FCC, VCCI, C-TICK, and BSMI regulations.
The RIDATA USB Yego Drives are now also available at WalMart.com and CompUSA.com from 2GB to 4GB capacities, weighing less than 10 ounces and come with a two-year warranty. As with all RIDATA products, they are competitively street priced.
