Our incessant R&D has made our products highly acceptable in the market. Now that Microsoft is launching its latest version of Windows operating system, Transcend users can freely use their USB flash drives on Windows 7 computers without worrying about compatibility issues.”

According to ChangeWave Research, the current satisfaction rate for Windows 7 is four-time higher than Windows Vista. In order to ensure complete functionality when used with the new Windows 7 operating system, Transcend's V Series, T Series and Hi-speed Series JetFlash USB Flash Drives have all been confirmed to achieve Microsoft's strict standards for Windows 7.
