Transcend has launched its JetFlash 500 retractable USB flash drive in India. The stylish JetFlash 500 features a smooth sliding USB connector that eliminates the need for caps and effortlessly extends and retracts with a simple flick of the thumb. With its user-friendly capless design, various color and capacity options and smooth contoured shape, the JetFlash 500 is an ideal portable storage solution for users with busy and active lifestyles.

Austin Huang, Regional Head - Sales, SAARC & APAC, Transcend said, “Losing USB end caps can be quite annoying, not to mention the inconvenience of taking the cap on and off every time the drive is used. For extra convenience and protection, Transcend's JetFlash 500 flash drive is designed with an innovative extension and retraction mechanism that enables users to bring out or hide the connector with a single flick of the thumb. The JetFlash 500's capless design not only keeps dust and debris out of the drive, but also ensures there is no cap to misplace or lose. For further peace of mind, the JetFlash 500 is solidly built to withstand a few bumps and falls, so users can be sure its USB connector will never become loose, fall out, or accidentally slip back into the drive when plugging it into a computer.”

The JetFlash uses an ultrasonic welding technology that made the drive inseperable from its outer case. According to Transcend, this made the drive more solid and rugged, and improves its tactile and visual appeal at the same time. The JetFlash 500 comes in five vivid color options to match its sleek, streamlined black case: orange, red, blue, green and purple. For added value, users can download and install Transcend's free JetFlash Elite data management tools onto the JetFlash drive to enhance mobile productivity. The JetFlash 500 also carries Transcend's highly acclaimed lifetime warranty and is currently available in five capacities: 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB and 32GB.
