Small OCZ Spyder Packs Big Storage and Fast Performance

Everything is getting smaller these days from our notebook computers to our flash drives and disappointingly our spendable incomes. Small flash drives used to give up storage space for the sake of a compact design, but a new crop of tiny flash drives offers the best of both worlds - small size and lots of storage.

The latest flash drive maker to jump on the small drive bandwagon is OCZ with its Spyder flash drive. Despite the small, cap-less design the Spyder is available in 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB capacities. OCZ claims that the drive has 21 to 35MB/s read speeds promising good performance. The OCZ Spyder has a slicker design and may be a bit faster than the Corsair Flash Voyager Mini, but it lacks the encryption of the similarly sized Imation Atom.
