The Corsair FlashVoyager USB Sticks are well known for their ruggedness. During our testing we boil and freeze the USB stick, put it into the dish washer and run over it with a car, more testing happens in the toaster and in the washing machine, and we finally managed to break it.

Almost indestructible; Rugged rubber casing; Fast; USB extension cable included; Software included; Lifetime Warranty

Cap could get lost; Expensive; Rubber attracts a lot of dust; High Access time

Cosair continues to dominate the performance flash memory market.

While the Flash Voyager GT cannot compare in build quality to the Survivor GT that is manufactured out of aircraft-grade aluminum, the Flash Voyager GT is built for durability and speed.

The product itself is good!! Ordered one 3 weeks ago when told on the site 1-3 days!! Lol. Product is worth the money. I've seen it a lot more expensive ones so overall quite good.

Corsair's ruggedised stick just got bigger.

Will withstand normal drops and knocks; Fast transfer speed; Huge capacity

Lid can be easily lost

It may not be quite as Bear Grylls-proof as Corsair's Survivor range, but the Voyager still provides a good degree of physical protection without having to make compromises in other areas.

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.

A few weeks ago we reviewed Corsair's giant 32GB Flash Voyager USB thumbdrive and found it, well, pretty good. Performance was average, but the sheer size, reasonable price, and durability of Corsair's product made it stand out.

Durable rugged body; comes with encryption software

Not very fast for a premium priced "high performance" drive

At first I was really happy with this drive. It was fast. There was no problem loading it with all the files I wanted to store and bring back and forth with me from home to work. With 16GB it should have lasted me for years.

Flash memory is falling in price faster than Michael Jackson's bank account to a point where you can now economically replace your standard mechanical computer hard drive with solid state drives (SSD).

Corsair are best known amongst the enthusiast community for their high performance gaming memory, the Dominator series. However, today we will be looking at something with a very different purpose, in the form of a USB flash drive.
