Abstract
A portable data storage module, or vault cartridge, having a data storage device and a plurality of conductive members which are disposed beneath an insulating outer surface of the module. In conjunction with corresponding conductive members in a host device, the corresponding conductive members being disposed adjacent to an outer surface of the module and in registration with the conductive members within the module, the portable data storage module when coupled to the host device is operable for having data capacitively coupled through opposing pairs of conductive members.
