Super Talent has announced a tiny flash drive that has 8GB of storage space called the Pico-C Gold. The little drive measures 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm and is water resistant. The drive is also resistant to shock and supports 30Mb/s transfer speeds.

The gold color of the drive comes from actual 24-carat gold plating and the drive weighs about 4.7 grams. The tiny drive has an exposed USB connector and comes with a sturdy gold chain. Despite the small size and 8GB of storage the drive will retail for about $40.

"Is it the speed, the ruggedness, the water resistance, the incredibly tiny size or the pure elegance that people like most in our Pico-C drive? Who knows? But, this combination of features and style is not offered in any other terrestrial storage device, which makes it a real craze," commented Super Talent Marketing Director, Joe James.
