I leave this review with mixed feelings regarding the Corsair 32GB Flash Survivor USB drive. I have nothing but praise regarding the abilities of the Flash Survivors physical abilities. It's really water resistant, super-strong and can take lots of abuse, the construction is definitely top-notch...
Extremely strong because of CNC-milled; anodized aircraft-grade aluminum; Water resistant holds true; Can take lots of beatings and it holds up like nothing happened; 10-year warranty and RMA process is simply and fast; Read speeds are pretty fast
Write speed not fast enough for something that looks military; The military is strong and swift, the Corsair Flash Survivor is strong but not swift, First unit prematurely died on me in 2-3 months time, Could be too bulky for some, Could be too pricey for some
Corsair Survivor 16GB Rugged Drive [Review] Jayesh Limaye, Aug 11, 2009 1417 hrs IST This drive promises to survive all the punishments Extremely rugged, good read speeds Slow write speeds, no software bundle Check specifications Write Review Expert Rating : USB Flash drives have become ubiquitous
Extremely rugged; good read speeds
Slow write speeds; no software bundle
We tested the 32GB Survivor, which costs a heart-stopping $229.99 list-but that works out to $7.19 per GB, a much better deal than the 4GB version at $12.50 per GB ($49.99 list), if you care to look at it that way. The Survivor also has 8GB ($79.99 list) and 16GB ($129.99 list) versions.
The most durable drive going; Ten-year limited warranty
Cap is as big as the drive; lose it and you lose the durability
The Corsair Flash Survivor range comes strongly recommended, primarily because it is only one of a handful of ruggedized USB storage devices and the price is very reasonable indeed. At the time of writing, the 32GB version costs around $80 which isn't much more than basic plastic casing models.
"...damaged, I'm fairly clumsy... Anyway the Corsair Survivor looked absolutely ideal. It's crafted from corrugated anodised aluminium so it is unlikely to be crushed. The stick actually has a fine threaded screw, which is very nicely made to get it out which is cool; these have rubber seals in...
Very rugged; waterproof; shockproof etc .
Some may get annoyed with unscrewing it
Tough, lightweight, and featuring excellent read speed, the Corsair Flash Survivor is a very capable USB drive for klutzes and outdoor types alike. Priced for less than $50 at select online retailers, the Corsair Flash Survivor doesn't offer security features, but casual users looking for large...
Rugged construction; Water resistant; Fast read speed; Ten-year warranty,
Slow write speed; No data encryption,
pocket sized hardrive.
Capacity and secure from elements
price; which is dropping all the time
This State of the Art flash drive is great for me as I need to back up not only my home computer, but my work one with it. It's VERY durable and quick to upload onto. And at this price, I would recommend it to anyone!
Corsair08 Large, good-looking and versatile, the Corsair SURVIVOR 32GB makes sense for those who need capacity and a modicum of speed in a portable USB pendrive. The Corsair 32GB SURVIVOR is available for £85 at SCAN.co.uk .
