Product Description The Corsair Flash Voyager family of USB drives is rugged, stylish, compact, and reliable, making them ideal for transporting MP3s, digital images, presentations and more. Flash Voyager drives are fully Plug and Play with most operating systems and are backward compatible with USB 1.1. Their durable rubber casing is easy to grip and water resistant.The Flash Voyager product line is both enclosed in the Corsair proprietary all-rubber Flash Voyager housing. Boasting water-resistant properties, these drives allow users to carry more valuable data and applications without compromise. Several reviews of the Flash Voyager products have demonstrated the ruggedness, durability, and reliability of the Flash Voyager family. The Flash Voyager has been shown laundered, baked, frozen, boiled, dropped, and even run over by a SUV in many third party reviews. After all the punishment it receives, the drive continues to work.
Looks nice but is HORRIBLY SLOWOctober 8, 2008 I just received the 32 GB flash drive. I was pleased with the overall design (though the cap seems rather loose).
I am currently trying to write 11 GB worth of data to it. I've been at it for 3 hours and it's still not done. Windows Vista gave me estimates that were all over the place - at one point, it said there was 1 day 2 hours left. Actually right now the progress bar is not quite halfway and the estimate is 14 hours left. I knew it wouldn't be lightning fast, but even at the lower end of estimates (4 MB/s writing speed), 11 GB should take no more than 45 minutes.
Bottom line: Buyer Beware! The drive may be huge in terms of storage and indestructible in design, but the slow write speed makes it (the 32 GB model at least) totally impractical. I feel terrible I plunked down $80 on this. I would rather have given it to charity than to have spent it on an electronic gizmo that turned out to be (in my opinion) worthless.
Great high capacity flash driveOctober 8, 2008 I bought this drive mainly for the capacity, and having 16GB has been fantastic. It allows me to back up all important data and photos, which is not only a good idea for backup purposes, but enables my data to be completely transportable without taking a laptop.
The rubberized unit is attractive, water resistant, and apparently indestructible.
The data transfer seemed somewhat slow when I received the unit...noticeably slower than my 4GB Apacer drive.
But I reformatted the Corsair Flash Drive using Windows Vista, and it sped things up. On a 2GB test, it sped up the transfer rate by about 35%.
All in all, this is a good value.
It Works!October 7, 2008 Oh my god! This product totally does what it says it does. I am so impressed!!!
Good drive for the priceOctober 5, 2008 Good drive for the price but little bit slower than my other drives (Cruzer and Kingston).
Great flash drive, great vendorOctober 5, 2008 Extremely rapid service and the device works very well. It's so nice to have a large capacity portable storage device.
