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.

 Very Nice! Faster than I thought it would be. July 16, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This USB thumb drive has a really nice feel to it. It works in Windows Vista perfectly, the drivers load automatically.
I measured the following performance:
Write single 717MB video file - 120 seconds - 5.975MB/s
Read single 717MB video file - 30 seconds - 23.9MB/s
Write 455 files (727MB total) JPG files - 150 seconds - 4.85MB/s
Read 455 files (727MB total) JPG files - 37 seconds - 19.65MB/s
I think this is very nice for the money.
EXCEEDING PLEASED with all aspects associated with my new Corsair July 11, 2008
This USB flash drive has EXCEEDED my expectations because:
- after a $20 rebate, it cost less than $18;
- to date, customer service has been excellent; and
- copying a 3 GB .dvr-ms file, using Windows Explorer to CUT and PASTE, write at 8.1 MB/s, read at 25.5 MB/s. Both over 180% higher than Corsair's spec'd average sequential write and read speeds.
I purchased this drive to copy files larger than 4 GB, and had no problems copying multiple smaller files, less than 4 GB, to its maximum FAT32 capacity. But when I tried to copy a 6.5 GB file, I got the error: "The disk in the destination drive is full. Insert a new disk to continue."
For FAT32 drives, I learned that the maximum transferrable file size is limited to 4 GB. To copy larger files, they must be formatted to NTFS (which are not hot-swappable). However, using Device Manager, you can safely remove it from the USB port - a hassle for some, but a SOLUTION for me!!
Thank you for a FANTASTIC Father's Day gift, Curly!!
Corsair - Good Drive but Hate the Cap July 9, 2008
Good Drive. My nit to pick is I hate flash drives with separate caps - way too easy to lose. If there was a way to tether or, better yet, eliminate the cap, I would be in favor of it.
 Breaks over extended use July 7, 2008
My Corsair drive actually physically broke after using it for about a year. I used it often but fairly carefully, so - be warned! Now mine is unusable and I'm just hoping that everything on there is backed up . . .
Works well and it's cheap... July 4, 2008
Only thing I can knock it for is the cap isn't attached to the unit, but I'm very happy with the performance of this drive. The attachment portion of the key is somewhat thin, so I can see it tearing down the road, so I attached a separate quick connect to eliminate that possibility. Got this for 10 bucks A/R and Google 10 off and shipped free. Nice
