As the market trend of mini size, easy-to-carry and high capacity, the USB disk has replaced traditional diskettes and become the first choice of personal storage for many people. In a highly competitive business environment, key information is the most important factor to win.

Therefore, data security has become one of the major considerations when people purchase digital storage devices. In order to fulfill this need of business people and to continue the sales inquiry of its first-generation fingerprint identification Mobile Disk F1, TwinMOS announces the new-generation fingerprint identification Mobile Disk F2 which extends the highest capacity to 32GB with a blue color to express the sense of reliability and elegance.

Continuing the “Value Built on Professionalism” motto, TwinMOS equips the second -generation fingerprint identification Mobile Disk F2 with the advanced and precision biometric fingerprint technology to encrypt data in order to protect important data for consumers. After plugging the F2 Mobile Disk in a USB port on a desktop or laptop and gently slide the finger over the sensor, consumers can start all functions on the F2. Furthermore, nobody but the owner of the F2 can start it. This way, consumers can prevent data being stolen or avoid forgetting password.

Additionally, the F2 can be partitioned into encrypted and public sections. Consumers can apply the superior, exclusive fingerprint identification technology to ensure the absolute security of confidential data stored in the encrypted section. In the public section, consumers can store common data for the public to assess. This way, both data security and sharing can be achieved at the same time.

In addition the new Mobile Disk F2 is also equipped with a brand new application program. Its synchronization functions can automatically update the email records in Microsoft Office Outlook from the computer and record long website address, website data in the My Favorites Section of Microsoft Internet Explorer and bookmarks in Firefox.
