Corsair Survivor now available in a larger size

James Allan Brady, Jan 4th 2008 Discuss [1]

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.

Chris Scott Barr, Aug 7th 2007 Discuss [6]

I've been intrigued by Corsair's Survivor GT Flash Drive since it came out a little while back.

The guys over at EverythingUSB got their hands on one and decided to put it to the test; here's what they found. Read The Full Story

These tough little drives are built from heavy-duty aluminum with a rubber collar to help in shock-absorption. The drive is also well-sealed in the event that it is submerged in water.

Corsair USB drive is both speedy and sturdy

Chris Davies, Mar 26th 2007 Discuss [0]

It might not look too impressive - in fact it's plump, brash and rubbery - but this Corsair Flash Voyager GT is a 4GB thumb-drive with a difference. Two differences, actually; firstly that it can withstand such hardships as a full wash and spin-dry cycle, being run over with a truck and thrown at a concrete floor, and secondly that it's Corsair's fastest every flash drive. Potential top-speeds of 34MB/s read and 28MB/s write could mean an install of Vista in half the time it takes to do so from a DVD. Everything USB plugged it in and checked it out, and you can't ask for a clearer recommendation:

"Incredibly fast and especially durable, what's not to like? You'd be foolish not to spend the extra $10 for Corsair's speed demon of a flash drive"

Corsair’s Flash Voyager 16GB USB Flash Drive

Rue Liu, Dec 12th 2006 Discuss [1]

Corsair recently released a 16GB USB flash drive for their Flash Voyager series. But before you start criticizing the bizarre toy-spacecraft styling, you have to remember it was all in an effort to encase the drive in a rubber housing to make it extra durable and water-resistant. The 16GB storage capacity allows you to store up to four full DVD movies or over 20 CDs of music. The drive is also bootable so you can install Windows on it and boot directly from the flash drive. Sustained read speeds are around 22MB/sec and sustained write speeds are 7MB/sec. Priced at $299. Corsair Launches the 16GB Flash Voyager USB Flash Drive [Via: I4U]
