There was a 2 TB model, but the 1 TB was already damn expensive. Since USB is a lot slower by comparison, NVMe in an m.2/USB adapter would be a waste of money. I've seen USB 1TB flash drives have been around for, at least, a year, but I'm not enthralled by such technology, so I haven't been monitoring the market. I found an article dating back to 2013 that reports on Kingston's USB 1TB flash drives, at: https://liliputing.com/2013/01/corsa...ash-drive.html That was 6 years ago. I didn't bother doing time ranged searches to see how far back for when they became available in the consumer market. Lots of products don't get "known" until they hit a price point that is tolerable to the mass market of consumers. |
