Imagine carrying your software on the same flash drive that
carries your files. That's what you can do with a U3 smart drive! When you unplug
it, it leaves no personal data behind which makes it an ideal device for the
home, office, schools or promotions. USB is one of the most popular interfaces
between computers and peripherals.
What is a U3 Pen Drive
U3 is a standard proposed by U3 LLC in the US which defines
a standard for a USB flash memory platform. This new standard means that in
addition to carrying your data, it is now possible to carry your personal PC
operating environment with you.
Carry your favorite PC environment with U3
The launch pad menu is loaded on U3 smart drive. Your favorite
software* can be easily installed on U3 using the launch pad menu. You will
be able to use the same computing environment at office and at home.
For example, if you use the web browser installed on U3, you
can carry your bookmarks and browser history with you. U3 is reassuring from
an information management point of view as the browser history does not stay
on the computer itself.
Installable software must be U3-compatible software.
How are U3 and USB flash memory different
A CD-ROM area has been added to U3.
The structure of U3 is shown simply in the diagram on the right.
The launch pad menu and settings that U3 uses are saved here.
This area is read-only. There is no chance of accidental deletion.
Software that is installed is saved in this area.
Files like those saved with word processing software or images
can be saved in this area.
What can be done with the U3 launch pad menu
The launch pad menu is similar to the menu displayed when the
Windows start button is clicked.
The launch pad menu lets you run software saved on U3, install or delete software,
and access U3 settings.
An increasing selection of U3 compatible software.
You can download available U3 software from the U3 download
center.
The U3 download center can be easily accessed by clicking add programs on the
launch pad menu. Then just download the software that you would like to use.
A wide variety of software has been prepared for download such as web browsers,
email, word processing, and spreadsheet software.
U3 also takes security into consideration.
Its convenient to save your bookmarks and email data on U3,
but what happens if you drop it? Its a worry.
But with U3 everything is okay. After enabling security, a password
screen will display when U3 is inserted into a computer. Without the password,
data saved on U3 cannot be read, and any saved programs cannot be run.
