Advantages: large storage and build of quality
Disadvantages: expensive for a flash drive but you get what you pay for

...As a rule I try not to carry my laptop around with me, opting instead to transport files the easy way using USB flash drives, of which I have 3 due to the size of the files I have to load and upload. My first encounter with a flash drives came with the expensive yet disappointing Lexar and over the years I've steadily moved from one to another gradually increasing the memory size as the size of files seems to spiral out of all proportion! I paid just £65.99 for the Corsair Flash Voyager USB flash drive from our IT supplier and with a 32 GB memory I had anticipated it being my final purchase of a flash drive for a considerable period of time. Opting for a USB flash drive from a company like Corsair meant that I knew I would be getting a product of quality, and the Flash Voyager oozes quality and style. Compact and durable the drive can...

Advantages: Compact, fast, reliable
Disadvantages: Lack of transportation strap

...I remember when USB flash drives hit the market a few years back when you could fit a staggering 16Mb worth of data on a device the size of your middle finger. Since then capacity has increased and prices have decreased at an alarming rate. For example you can now get 4Gb flash drives for cheaper than the original 16Mb drives which represents great value for money. --Whats in the box -- Contents of the box are minimalistic to say the least, there is the drive itself and a little strap which you can then use to attach the drive to your belt/keyring, etc. This device really is plug and play in its simplest form, there arent even any instructions supplied with it, mainly because none are required. -- Useage -- Plugging the drive into a spare USB slot will give you an extra drive in Windows Explorer (My Computer) typically F...

Advantages: Very Fast and rugged
Disadvantages: Cap easily lost

...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 demanding games and improved load up times by about 30%. The speed of this drive is really noticeable when transferring large files, through USB2 I can transfer 1gb of files in about 20 seconds, compared to other flash drives I have used that is extremely quick. As for Corsairs claim that this is virtually indestructible well, I’ve dropped mine, stood on it and even dropped it in a puddle – it still works. It hangs of my keys all day long and gets quite a severe battering and yet it never fails to work or be recognised by any PC. My only complaint is that the cap on the drive... Read review
