Mumbai, IndiaMarch 31, 2015 – Kingston, the independent world leader in memory products, today, announced the launch of its 4th generation HS4 All-In-One Media Reader. The multi-function reader improves upon the previous model as it reads all major card format types including the latest SD card speeds (UHS-I, UHS-II) and CF Type I and II (UDMA 0-7).

 

Users can easily back up and transfer music, photos, videos and other digital data with USB 3.0 high-speed performance. This allows users to save time transferring files as USB 3.0 allows up to 5Gb/s data transfer speed – almost 10x faster than USB 2.0. The portable, small- form factor reader has a brushed nickel case and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0.

 

Kingston® also announces a new 64GB capacity addition to its CompactFlash Ultimate 600x family which will soon be available in India. The 32GB and 64GB CF Ultimate 600x cards offer premium results with speeds up to 90MB/s read and write to support burst mode photography or HD video. The addition of MediaRECOVER® software lets users recover deleted files and restore corrupt files, if needed.

 

“HS4 All-In-One Media Reader is a great device to quickly move data between multiple devices whether at home or on the road,” said Nathan Su, Flash Memory Sales Director, APAC Region, Kingston. “The higher-capacity CF Ultimate 600x lets avid photographers and videographers capture more content and when used with the reader, data transfer is simple and fast.”
