The time of USB 3.0 is upon us, and Sony has made its entrance into the new realm of digital storage by offering its first USB 3.0 flash drives, the new Micro Vault Q Series.

Clad in an aluminum casing, the Micro Vault also features a retractable USB connector to protect it from dust or damage. It also has a LED indicator for convenient checks on data transfer status.

When plugged into a corresponding USB 3.0 port, transfer speeds are significantly faster than USB 2.0 speeds, with Sony claiming a read speed of up to 120 MB/s. Current USB 2.0 read speeds fall between 30 to 42 MB/s.

The initial offerings of the Micro Vault flash drives will come in 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB. Prices will be available when they are launched in November 2011.
