For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with OWC to give away the Envoy Pro mini, a desktop class solid state drive that fits into a keychain-sized enclosure. The Envoy Pro mini measures in at 3.7 inches by 0.94 inches by 0.44 inches, but houses a 120GB or 240GB SSD.

Despite being able to fit comfortably in a pocket, the Envoy Pro mini is nearly twice as fast as the average thumb drive, reaching sustained speeds up to 427MB/s, so it's excellent for tasks regular thumb drives can't achieve, like quickly transferring large files.

The Envoy Pro mini, which is available directly from OWC, is priced at $117.99 for the 120GB version or $184.99 for the 240GB version, but one MacRumors reader will have a chance to get the 120GB version for free.

To enter to win, use the Rafflecopter widget below and enter your email address. Your email address will not be given to any third party and will be used solely for contact purposes to reach the winner.

The contest will run from today (September 18) at 11:30 a.m. Pacific Time through 11:30 a.m. Pacific Time on September 25. The winner will be chosen randomly on September 25 and will be contacted by email. The winner have 48 hours to respond and provide a shipping address.

Seriously curious - since USB thumb drives are pretty much limited by the speed of the bus, how is this any better than a thumb drive?
By nature USB drives use slow flash memory. These drives have an ssd inside with a USB 3 bus so you get a significant speed bump.

Needs a way of attaching to a keyring.

Also, how does this connect? USB 2? 3? C? Thunderbolt? Something else?
USB3.

I already have this in the form of the muskin ventura ultra. The ****** sandforce controller is no better now than it ever was. At least muskin has a lifetime warentee, which I have used 3 times already.
I'm willing to bet OWC is still using the sandforce controller too.
