The packaging shown on this page reflect the first migration towards a new look and feel to coincide with a whole new product line. Newer was breaking new ground in the USB product category and wanted a separate and distinctive box to match.

A bold design featuring large product photos and large descriptive headings were chosen. A hint of past packaging was retained by using a sampling of the old background illustration to accentuate the bold headings.

When a FireWire product was added to the product family, the new packaging theme was used to maintain consistency and brand awareness. This product was the first to receive its own logo.

This whimsical addition to the packaging family was designed for the snap-on interchangeable faces for the drive and hub. This design would prove to be the predecessor to the next generation of packaging that would coincide with the coming of Y2K.
