        SMARTDISK REPORTS THIRD CONSECUTIVE QUARTER OF RECORD REVENUE AND
         EARNINGS; REVENUE OF $17.4 MILLION AND OPERATIONAL EARNINGS OF
                       $0.07 PER SHARE EXCEED EXPECTATIONS

Naples, Fla. -- May 4, 2000 -- SmartDisk Corporation (Nasdaq: SMDK), a company
whose products simplify the digital lifestyle, today reported record results for
its first quarter 2000.

The Company concluded its acquisition of VST Technologies, Inc. during the first
quarter. Because the acquisition was accounted for as a purchase, the Company's
first quarter results include VST's revenue and earnings for the period from
March 6, 2000 through March 31, 2000.

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2000, SmartDisk reported revenue of $17.4
million, which represented a 216% increase over revenue of $5.5 million for the
first quarter ended March 31, 1999.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, excluding amortization of
goodwill and other intangibles related to the acquisition of VST, was $1.3
million or $0.07 per diluted share compared with a net loss of $2.0 million or
$0.22 per share for the same period in 1999. Including amortization of goodwill
and other intangibles related to the VST acquisition, the Company's net loss was
$0.5 million or $0.03 per share in the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

The Company reported an increase in first quarter 2000 gross profit to $6.1
million or 35% of revenue, from $0.8 million or 15% in the first quarter 1999.

"The Company's first quarter results exceeded our expectations," said Michael S.
Battaglia, President and CEO, SmartDisk. "The growth in revenue and operating
earnings reflected both the strength of SmartDisk's historical operations and
the favorable impact of the VST acquisition."
