Before the advent of USBs, external hard drives, or Solid State Drives (SSDs), most users used to turn to CDs or DVDs to store their most important files for use on another computer. The problem with these discs was that only some were rewritable, meaning most only allowed you to save files once.
Although it is hard to believe, the company Verbatim (famous for selling CDs, DVDs, Blu-Rays and recently flash and USB memories) has just presented a rather peculiar solid-state drive (SSD), since users who dare to buy it will only be able to use it once to store your files, similar to the old blank disks.
YOU CAN SEE: Why are many receiving calls from unknown numbers that do not answer and hang up?
According to Xataka, a portal specialized in technology, the name of this product is SWOVA128G and, according to the manufacturer, it promises to have a useful life of about 10 years. That is, during this time, you will be sure that your files will not be lost, unlike if you save them on a CD or DVD, which can be damaged after a period.
How would a device with these characteristics be used?
Today’s Solid State Drives (SSDs) allow users to record their files multiple times, so its old-fashioned feature is very curious. However, Verbatim reveals that this device is focused on companies, especially those that want to store accounting or confidential data, secret projects, etc.
It is worth noting that these SSDs have a capacity of 128 GB and, at the moment, will only be available in Japan. To save the files you will have to connect it, via a USB Type C cable, to a Windows 11 or Windows 10 computer.
