Presented at Computex 2008 in Taiwan is OCZ’s new USB 2.0 flash drive, Diesel. The diminutive flash drive with a compact design employs the use of aluminum chassis for protection. Since OCZ prides itself in manufacturing products geared towards portability, the Diesel offers an option at its base to be attached to either a lanyard or a keyring.

iRiver quietly rolled out the Domino flash drive in Korea recently. While we have no idea when it’ll be available to the rest of the world, its sheer simplicity and no-frills design has impressed me. Looking literally like a domino block, it features a retractable USB connector.

I think we’re all quite scared of losing our files and important data by accident—I can still feel the pain of having a PC crash not so long ago. I don’t know about you but trying to recover as much lost data as I can was a huge pain in the you-know-what.
