Manufacturer's 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.

Advantages: Speed, Reliability, Looks, Lanyard Disadvantages: Rubber coating makes it quite large
...I chose this flashdrive as corsair are a very well respected memory manufacturer, and had read on various forums that its speed was second to none.
I can confirm that as i have used it in conjunction with the Vista Ready Boost function that aims to boost system performance by using a flashdrive as a page file, naturally the corsair with its speed was a good choice for this job.
This is a very competent and very quick flashdrive, which i whole heartedly recommend to anyone.
The lanyard is a cool freebie and makes the flashdrive easier to find.
However when plugged into a usbdrive the rubber outer coating can impair the usage of other usb peripherals but this is only a minor qualm with an otherwise excellent product.
For the price you can find cheaper flashdrives out there but as with any technological product it is oftern worth...

Advantages: Hard wearing, Extremely Fast Disadvantages: Cap tends to feel a little loose.
...I was not 100% sure about purchasing one of these as they are not the cheepest flashdrives about by a long way, but i am so glad i did!
This is probably the 6th or 7th flashdrive i have bought and it is by far the best one i have got. I would say tranfering files with this is at least 25% quicker than the next fastest one i own (crucial gizmo).
And to say this is rugged is a bit of a understatement mine has been dropped and stood on countless times,been through my washing machine twice and even been chewed by my girlfriends dog. And has never failed to work once!
So if your after an extremely hard wearing high performance usbdrive this is the one to get....

Corsair's USBFlashDrive
*************************
Carsiar's offering doesn't really have any great advantage over any of the other major brands other than being made of rubber, so it's great if think that your flashdrive will get knocked around alot, as the construction is very solid indeed.
Also as a added bonus, Corsair claim that it is water resistant, but seeing as the cap just slips over the USB plug im not sure how well it would cope with water, although I can't say I have put it to the test.
Performance wise the drive seems just as good as other brands...

Brilliant.
OK, not the cheapest on the market but amazingly fast and very rugged.
It works flawlessly with the Windows Vista ReadyBoost system giving your laptop or PC a large increase in memory, I have found that this can help when playing very more
So,... I managed to get my boss to agree to slip one of these in with works last order of memory sticks, so technically it's not mine. I've used many of these sticks, and plan to stick with the Corsair Flash Voyager for the foreseeable future, despite... more
