Flash drives often end up as e-waste but this eco-friendly one might alleviate some of the guilt

The Team Group C175 ECO Flash Drive in hand with leaves surrounding it.

Having just dropped a new, totally net-zero flash drive, TeamGroup steps in as yet another tech company taking steps to reduce the use of new plastics, and tackle some of the issues that come along with the inevitable evil that is e-waste.

From the same company that brought us the first PCIe 5.0 storage made for non-server use, the C175 ECO is TeamGroup's new, eco-friendly USB 3.2 Gen 1 flash drive. It comes in 64GB, 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB capacities, and you're looking at read speeds of up to 100MB/s. Most importantly, though, it's made from 75% post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics, and TeamGroup claims that it's managed to reduce 69% of carbon emissions in the manufacturing process, without the recycled plastic ending up an inviable mess.
