File under: potentially crass but undoubtedly awesome.

The SanDisk Extreme Ducati Edition is the ... erm ... sexiest USB key we have ever seen. And we hope to never have to use that phrase ever again. But look at this thing! The "taillight" glows while the drive is in use and it looks like a Ducati!

The drive comes in one 4GB size and speed, as you'd expect, is of absolute importance. Sandisk claims the Ducati is capable of read/write speeds of 20MB/s -- making it the fastest USB drive available.


The SanDisk Extreme Ducati Edition is available now for a RRP of AU$159. Of course, you're paying for the license here, but many motorcycle fans will no doubt gobble these things up.
