I/OMagic Corporation (OTCBB:IOMG), a provider of data storage and digital entertainment products, today announced that it will soon ship the latest in its Portable Storage Device line-up, the GigaBank(TM) 6.0. The GigaBank(TM) 6.0 has up to 6 GB(a) of storage capacity in a mini (2″x0.5″x2.5″) and lightweight (less than two ounces) unit designed to store or back-up files, store MP3s or transfer files from one computer to another.
“The GigaBank(TM) 6.0 is perfect for anyone on the go,” said Tony Andrews, Vice President of Engineering and Product Development for I/OMagic Corporation. “It is pocket size so you can take important files with you anywhere. You’ll never have to be without the information you need with the GigaBank(TM) 6.0.”
The GigaBank(TM) 6.0 is powered through a USB 2.0 port (which is also USB 1.1 backwards compatible) which, when not in use, can be conveniently tucked into its enclosure. It comes with a carrying case, an extension cable for hard to reach USB ports and it requires no battery or power adapter.
The GigaBank(TM) 6.0 is hot swappable (a device that can be plugged/unplugged into a computer while the computer is on) and it supports Windows XP/2000/ME/98SE.
I/OMagic anticipates shipping its new GigaBank(TM) 6.0 in May 2005 with an introductory suggested retail price of $199. The Company also currently offers GigaBank(TM) products in 2.2GB, 4.0GB, 20GB, 40GB, 60GB, 80GB and 100GB options.
(a) Note: 1 MB=1 million bytes, 1 GB=1 billion bytes. A user’s total accessible memory/storage/data capacity will be less than stated as a result of the user’s operating system and other factors.
