Loading ...If the 2, 4, 8, and 16 gigabyte capacities weren’t large enough for you, you’ll be happy to know they’ve moved up on the binary scale to a new 32GB capacity. These flash drives are nearly impossible to destroy, they are element proof and have had all sorts of nasty things done to them in an effort to figure out just what the physical limits are.
At 32GB you should have any equally hard time filling it up as you would destroying it. You could literally use it as a primary hard drive with plenty of space if you wanted to, and it would certainly be a great drive for a persistent Linux install.
So, you have a huge capacity, and its nearly indestructible, the only thing else you could ask for would be an E-SATA connection instead of USB, but that would be kind of ridiculous. If you want one, I don’t know where you’d buy something like this other than online, but it should be around $250 for one of these.
Corsair’s nigh-invulnerable thumb drives hit 32GB [via crunchgear]
e-sata connection is more appropriate than the USB connection. This will make the boot from e-sata external storage easier.
Most of the time (atleast in Windows) the USB connection have problem of its dynamic nature. Swap two usb connected devices in Windows you will know that (eg. usb mouse swap with usb external harddisk and vice versa).
Good work corsair! this makes the next milestone in innovation and all the future laptops will have the e-sata connection point for external connection!
