SanDisk Has The First Flash Drive With A Reversible USB Type-C Connector
Remember those rumours about a 12-inch MacBook that ditched a MagSafe connector and traditional USB ports for a single USB Type-C port? If true, SanDisk’s new Dual USB Drive will be the first flash drive that’s able to connect to that redesigned hardware without an ugly adaptor.
Wickr: The Covert App Used By Politicians For Secret Discussions
