Transcend unveils 64GB memory card

NEW DELHI, INDIA: Transcend Information, Inc., a provider in storage and multimedia products, today announced the expansion of its flash card product line with the introduction of high-capacity 400X CompactFlash cards with capacities ranging up to 64GB.

The new 400X CF cards also feature high-speed transfer rates up to 90 MB/s read and 60MB/s write, ensuring maximum performance when used with today's high resolution imaging equipment, said a press release.

Austin Huang, regional head - Sales, SAARC and APAC, Transcend, said, “With storage capacities ranging from 16GB to an enormous 64GB, Transcend's 400X CF cards allow digital camera users to take thousands of high-resolution photos at a time without the inconvenience of switching cards. The 64GB 400X CF card, for instance, can capture more than 13,000 still images (with a 10 megapixel camera) and record over three hours of Full HD video (1920x1080 at 38.6Mbps).”

He further added that compared to dual-layer Blu-ray discs that can only hold a maximum of 50 GB, Transcend's 400X CF cards offer smaller dimensions and larger storage capacity, allowing users of digital single lens reflex cameras (DSLR) and HD video camcorders to take full advantage of their high-resolution equipment.
