SDD announces Verbatim storage media for digital cameras, MP3 players

Johannesburg, 01 Jun 2001

The world is going digital, and Verbatim is leading the way with CompactFlash and SmartMedia Memory Cards, now available from SDD and its network of over 6 000 resellers throughout Southern Africa.

According to Janine de Wolf, product manager for Verbatim at SDD, the SmartMedia and CompactFlash cards are fully compatible with almost all digital cameras, MP3 players and PDAs available on the South African market.

"Verbatim has a reputation for producing superior removable storage media that dates back to the days of the 53/4-inch floppy disk; with the release of these CompactFlash and SmartMedia cards, Verbatim is giving consumers a reliable and affordable alternative to proprietary media," she states.

Small, lightweight and cost-effective, the fully erasable, matchbook-size CompactFlash cards are the perfect storage solution for digital devices that need high capacity flash memory. Verbatim CompactFlash cards are ideal for any digital system with a CompactFlash slot, and are available in an expansive variety of capacities from 16MB to 128MB.

With storage capacities from 16MB to 64MB, SmartMedia cards consist of a NAND flash, erasable programmable read-only memory chip, embedded in a durable plastic card. Verbatim SmartMedia Memory Cards are based on the ATA/DOS file standard, ensuring their compatibility between systems and in a wide range of applications.

CompactFlash and SmartMedia cards take advantage of the latest solid-state technology - there are no moving parts or sensitive handling issues. Cards are 100% compatibility guaranteed and are backed by Verbatim's lifetime warranty.

SDD is a leading distributor of Verbatim quality storage products, available nationwide through its network of over 6 000 dealers.
