Ralph, I suggest you contact Kanguru and Imation directly, and ask them about the NAND memory they use. http://www.kanguru.com/kanguruusbflash.html http://www.kanguru.com/about.html#contact http://www.imation.com/en/Imation-Products/USB-Flash-Drives--Accessories/ http://www.imation.com/en/Contact-Us/ Please report any information gleaned back to our list.
