If there's one product that's really found acceptance amongst computer users in the last couple of years, it has to be the flash drive. With capacities up to 32GB (32,000MB), our portable storage has come a long way from the 1.4MB capacity of the floppy disk.

However, although all flash drives essentially perform the same task, like most computer components, not all of them are created equal.


Write speeds can vary wildly, with 2GB of data taking anything from less than 2 minutes up to over 12. Some like the Voyager unit shown above are more rugged and able to withstand the odd drop better. Some are waterproof and will still play nicely if they have had an inadvertent cycle through the washing machine. Warranty, encryption capabilities and size are just some of the other features that manufacturers build into their drives to differentiate them from the competition, some of which may be important to you. Fortunately the choice is large and there's bound to be one suited to your needs, although designs go from the sublime to the ridiculous.

With quite literally thousands of I.T. related products available to buy, it's not unusual that so many people feel swamped with the choice. With companies refreshing their product ranges at an ever increasing rate, there is a real danger of buying something that has already been discontinued by the manufacturer.

At the other end of the scale, it can be difficult to ensure that any newly released product you buy will be compatible with your existing equipment. Sales people are often not experienced enough to give you the right information.

At ImagineTek we have been building and upgrading systems for over 20 years. We can help you identify the weak areas of you existing configuration, and these are often less obvious than you might think.

We follow the hardware and software market on a daily basis. This helps us to anticipate future releases, to identify problematic products and to provide you with best advice.

We are completely independent and have no affiliation with any companies. This allows us to give impartial advice based on the facts. We strive to provide unique solutions to each client, based on your needs at the time.

We can also install and configure any system, component, peripheral or software you purchase, for complete peace of mind.
