WD had a number of other flash storage technologies on display, including
the world's smallest 1-TB USB device, a
USB-C flash solution for portable stor-

card copy for editing and sharing content in the field as well as direct access
to the device within third-party mobile
creative applications, and 2) the SanDisk
