The rubber shell attracts dust and is hard to clean, Poor performance in writes.
With its water-resistant feature, the Corsair 4GB Flash Voyager certainly has an edge over competing USB flash memory drives. It survived all our three water resistance tests, even a 30-minutes rinse cycle! Unfortunately, due to a change in the flash ...
The Corsair 4GB Flash Voyager memory drive really was quite impressive. To provide such a large memory capacity in such a small package is wonderful, and useful beyond compare. Its durable design gives users peace of mind, not to mention the Corsair te...
Realistically, I dont think anyone would accidentally microwave a flash drive, or drop it into a fireplace, but common household accidents are a fact of life. We already know the Flash Voyager can survive a desktop drop, a swim in the kitchen sink an...
Abstract: Corsair states their official transfer speeds for their Flash Voyager series is 19MB/s read and 13MB/s write, except for the 128MB variant that runs at 9MB/s and 6MB/s, and in our tests the CMFUSB2.0-4GB performed as advertised. Unfortunately, these s...

Slower than other smaller drives...
I remember, it seems just like the other day that I was amazed with my 32MB flash drive, and how much it could hold, and today I am testing the 32GB Corsair Flash Voyager, which amazed me yet again. While the speeds arent the best, there does have to...
Well protected, A huge amount of space means you could run an operating system happily from the drive, Extremely generous 10-year warranty
A huge amount of space means youll be begging for extra speed
With more than enough space, some will be using Corsairs 64GB as a replacement for an external hard drive. Transferring this much data though will leave you wishing for more speed. ...
30GB of usable storage capacity, water and shock-resistent, ships with encryption software
Expensive, TrueCrypt cant encrypt the entire drive The Final Word While it is expensive, the 32GB Flash Voyager is robust and offers a convenient way to carry more data than ever before in your pocket or on your keychain.
While it is expensive, the 32GB Flash Voyager is robust and offers a convenient way to carry more data than ever before in your pocket or on your keychain.
Just because you want a bit of extra protection for your files doesn't mean you need a USB stick that can survive three weeks of abuse in the Amazon. Don't get us wrong – the shock- and water-proof Voyager is no shrinking violet, but by keeping the rugged credentials to sensible levels the Voyager manages to be considerably more affordable than most of its rivals.
While the Voyager's semi-ruggedness appeals for the most part, there are some flaws. The rubber cap that protects the USB connector isn't attached to the main body in any way, making it easy to lose. And while the middle-of-the-road approach makes it a strong all-rounder, it also leaves it lacking knockout appeal in any particular area.
The Corsair Voyager is by no means the toughest USB stick around, but in reality it provides more than enough protection than most of us will ever need. Decent performance and good value for money are important real-world strengths, and combine to make...
