SwissMemory or SwissFlash?
on: October 20, 2017, 11:30:02 AM
Looking for some additional information about these 58-mm models.
As far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong), the difference between them only in electronic components (generation of USB-stick).
Can anybody post here pictures of these USB-sticks? Do we have other ways to determine which model it is? (Specially if USB-stick was removed! ;)
How many variations of each model was released?


Summary: any information will be very appreciated! All results will be used for updating information on SAKWiki.  :cheers:

I have a 2004 Dutch catalog from an outdoor shop, which shows the then new Swiss Memory with 124 Mb USB stick.

Found a few of those brand new for sale here in Ukraine, both have a USB 2.0 memory and available with 16 or 32 Gb of storage. They cost 60-80$, which seems a little too expensive for an old sluggish USB 2.0 in my opinion

Thanks for photos / catalogs! (I have version with 128Mb, in 2017 looks funny, isn't it?)

Looks like you're talking about Signature Slim (@Work), it's a relatively new model (but already replaced by 3 newest ones in this year)

Early 21st century swissbit with 64MB and a red LED. According to WikipediA, the first USB sticks hit the market at the end of the year 2000 and had a capacity of 8MB. I remember using IOmega ZipDisks at the time (80MB).
