With lightening fast transfer speeds and simple one-button operation, these duplicators are perfect for businesses, the banking Industry, telecommunications and any other field where numerous flash memory devices need USB drives to be copied to and/or erased quickly.  The firmware supports Department of Defense (DoD) Erase functions which meets government security standards.

Key Features:
  • Department Of Defense (DoD) Erase function
  • DoD erase is three cycle write process of 0’s – 1’s – 0’s.
  • Erase function supports USB, SD and microSD media
  • Standalone USB duplicators fully support USB 3.0 flash drives

Through this redundancy write cycle process there is no chance to recover residual files on a flash memory device.

Is your laptop doomed for extinction?

State of the Industry in Q1 of 2012

Even with two natural disasters in 2011, the earthquake in Japan and the flooding in Thailand, transportation channels and manufacturing capabilities for DRAM, flash and hard drives have leveled off to meet and insure market demand. Both DRAM and flash prices declined precipitously last year, in part due to gaining popularity of iPads and other TouchPad devices that generally do not require or leave room for much upgrade potential by definition of their very niche. However, don't count on laptops defaulting to the way of the dinosaur anytime in the near term future. Certainly sales have declined in favor of the cheaper devices just mentioned, but they just don't translate into the higher performance applications required by more serious business and professional users. Apps are taking the entire globe by storm and transforming the mobile industry in ways never imagined five years ago, but sometimes a mere app simply won't do and sometimes The ubiquitous Cloud won't do either. So let's not eulogize the laptop or resident server just yet. Corporations still need to exert control, or at least portray the illusion of it, to employees and clients alike, and cyber security remains THE top concern for databases that are continually combed containing proprietary personal information, health and financial records and social networking/online buying trends.

In CRN's recent announcement of 2011 "Products of the Year" three industry giants still came out on top: Hewlett-Packard, Dell and Samsung, standing in lockstep with the iconic Apple iPad and iPhone.

*The HP EliteBook 856Op is touted as one of the most robust notebooks ever made. As in 'ever'.

*The HP TouchSmart 9300 Elite boasts CRN's rigorous Test Center with accolades galore, and this is a relic (gasp) known as a Desktop!

*Dell's PowerEdge C6145 server offers more configuration arrays then ever before, harnessed into one lone machine with computation power that is staggering.

*And Samsung has dared to compete in the tablet world by launching the Galaxy 10.1 with prices and features that compete successfully with it's de facto rival.

We've got ALL the USB's, SD's and Micro SD's YOU EVER NEED to satisfy these hungry devices when you challenge their exponential range of processing capabilities. Whether it's DDR3 at lightening speeds, hot swappable hard drives or the quieter and more reliable SSD's, look no further for your supplier of choice. Our 29 years of longevity speaks for itself, and The Upgrade Place is your best choice to support the 2011 CRN Top Ten, that you positioned yourself through your own support and ultimate purchases.

Organize & Transport Supplies with our NEW Carts!

Our NEW line of Multi Storage Carts consolidate, organize and transport supplies in a variety of industries, such as medical, dental, hospitality, and even in the home.  Store and transport supplies effortlessly from area to area using carts made from chemically resistant high-density polyethylene and ABS - Manufactured in the USA! 



                                 Ten Ways Carts Solve Problems:


1. Save time by storing, transporting and using clean glassware, labware or plasticware right from the carts. Carts are simply cabinets on wheels offering portable storage. Many carts have large compartments for dust-protected storage.

2. Save steps and repeated trips by storing and transporting dirty glassware, labware or plasticware to sink or dishwasher right on a cart. Use carts to go around the lab or office collecting dirty glassware for safe transportation to the sink or dishwasher.

3. Use lab carts to offer private and secure transportation for sensitive samples or animals. TrippNT Lab Islands™ offer very large storage areas with easy pull-out shelves to make contents easily accessible. Several carts have easy-sliding, locking roll-top doors.

4. Make a "mini lab" on wheels, storing your personal favorite tools and supplies for easy access all over your lab or office.

5. Put a lab cart outside a sample-receiving area to collect, receive, analyze and return without transferring from container to container.

6. Create easy access for instrument maintenance by using mobile lab benches as a movable instrument bench for HPLC's, GC's, AA's and other small benchtop lab machines.

7. Use the carts as place holders to protect or direct traffic in an office, lab, visitor center, hallway or open area while offering forms, supplies, pens and a place to write.

8. Color code or number carts for each special project or product. They can store and localize all associated reports, samples and results as it travels along your pipeline.

9. Stock a cart with bulk supplies and use to make rounds filling up smaller containers for personal use. Save collecting and transporting a lot of small items.

10. Lab carts add flexibility to your lab or work area by being able to reconfigure bench space to accommodate the equipment, tools, glassware and supplies required for different projects.

The RDF8 is also backwards compatible with the USB 2.0 interface and accepts older versions of CF, SD, and SDHC cards, making the card reader quite practical for today`s digital needs.
RecoveRx Brings Deleted Photos Back to Life
The prospect of losing precious, once-in-a-lifetime shots to camera or memory card malfunction is a longstanding fear that looms in the minds of professional and amateur photographers alike.

Compatible with both Mac and Windows, this amazing data recovery tool can effectively recover lost, deleted or damaged photos and other digital files from multiple types of memory cards.
