The waterdrop shape, like the deadly weapon in "The Three-Body Problem", reveals a beautiful figure when the palm is opened. The overall body is made of space silver color, creating a futuristic aesthetic, and the zinc alloy material upgrades the texture with a warm touch. With a weight of only 42.3g, it has the speed of a mobile solid state drive in the size of a USB flash drive.

The center is designed with a sliding push-pull device, with USB-A and USB-C interfaces on the top and bottom, respectively. When the interface is pushed out, the slider automatically locks to prevent it from retracting when connecting devices. The detailed design reflects the attention to detail.

The body has a circular design in many places, eliminating the straight and right-angle shapes commonly seen in U-disk products, and eliminating the sense of distance between the user and the product. The Z398Pro is no longer just a U-disk product, but a capable assistant that accompanies the user.

Z398Pro is a mobile SSD with a read speed of up to 1070MB/s. It uses a steady-state technology to maintain a stable state during high-speed data transmission without speed loss. It uses 3DTLC particles and ATC power temperature control management technology to prevent overheating during long-term high-speed use.

The dual interface creates convenience for connecting more devices to the product. The Z398Pro can connect to C-port mobile phones, including most Android models, as well as iPhone15 series phones. In addition, the C-port design can connect to portable ultrabooks, MAC notebooks, and other devices. The A-port is compatible with a wider range of products. Thanks to the high-speed characteristics of mobile SSDs, the Z398Pro can record 4K high-definition video while connected to iPhone15!

Z398Pro is a digital EDC designed for office workers who require high transmission speeds. It is compact and portable, with a texture that is significantly different from ordinary products. The ultra-high reading speed greatly improves work efficiency, making Z398Pro the storage device needed by high-end professionals.
