In the words of Jeremy Clarkson: “SPEED!”

Every year, companies innovate to manufacture the newest technical advancements for the market and while many innovations never see the light of day, a select few can make a remarkable change in the way we do things.

Long ago in 1977, Eli Harari at Hughes Aircraft, invented a new way to store data, a way that would change the traditional hard drive. Harari had developed a method of electronically writing data onto an electronic memory chip, called an EEPROM, or Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory.How Can I Recover Deleted Files

As time progressed, technology adapted to Harari’s discovery and and in 1984, Toshiba created Flash Memory, a process in which 1s and 0s are written to a non-volatile computer storage chip that can be reprogrammed and erased.

Smaller than your thumb nail, a Secure Digital card, more commonly known as a SD card, is a flash storage devicethat can quickly and effectively write data while maintaining a very small size. Although they first made their mark in 1999, it wasn’t until later in the 2000s that they became more and more popular.

Camera advocates are SD cards best friends, as since their creation, their main purpose was for camera operations. That being said, in recent development, SD cards have become more than a card you use for photos as many phones, GPS, tablets, consoles, and a lot more can benefit from these little devices.How To Recover Hard Disk Data

The SD card comes in many different forms, although the most common is a standard SD card and MicroSD card. Flash memory is a tricky business, but doable if the company has previous experience and it just so happens that Kingston has been working with Flash technology since their startup.
