For now, SanDisk is claiming the crown for the smallest USB 3.0 drive with 128GB of storage.

The Ultra Fit USB 3.0 is shorter than a dime and narrower than a penny, and now supports capacities up to 128GB. While tiny flash drives like this aren’t new, they tend to top out at 64GB of storage. SanDisk has managed to double the capacity, while offering USB 3.0 transfer speeds of up to 130 megabytes per second.

If you need more storage, SanDisk’s Ultra USB 3.0 drive now stores up to 256GB, though it comes in a more standard thumb size. This capacity is a first for SanDisk, though other storage makers such as PNY have beaten SanDisk to the punch. The new drive touts transfer speeds of up to 100 megabytes per second.
