What do you get when you combine USB 3.0 speeds, 32GB of storage space, and rugged construction that is both water-resistant and shockproof? You get the Corsair Flash Voyager GT ($64.99 direct for 32GB), a rough-and-tumble flash drive that outpaces its slower cousin, the Corsair Flash Voyager USB...

Rugged rubber body seals out moisture and protects against bumps; High capacity and decent speeds with a low price per gigabyte

Bulky design; Easy to lose cap

Today we are revisiting the Corsair Voyager GT USB 3.0 32GB. We originally reviewed it in October of 2011 , and we're taking a look at it again 550 days later. In the beginning of October of 2012, the drive ceased to function.

The price of flash memory has continued to drop throughout 2012. A search on any bargain-finding website reveals that USB sticks commonly retail at what would have seemed ludicrous levels just a couple of years ago.

Standard USB 3.0 flash drives are fast. Flash Voyager GT USB 3.0 is touted to be even faster with its data transfer rates. The portability and convenience of USB drives has always meant putting up with delays while waiting for files to copy, but with USB 3.0, that should be thing of the past.

It's hard to get through a checkout line at even the grocery store nowadays without seeing some rendition of flash drive for sale. There are a dizzying array of sizes, colors and shapes with performance that generally runs from downright atrocious to decent.

Corsair designed the Flash Voyager GTR with best in class performance in mind and we can they achieved this goal. Except for the odd Flash Memory Toolkit write benchmark, which was promptly discredited by the actual real-world performance test, the GTR was constantly faster than every other drives...

We have already ran a number of benchmarks against Corsair's Flash Voyager GT 32GB flash drive, which can be found in Testing Out Linux File-Systems On A USB Flash Drive . In that article we benchmarked the FAT32, EXT3, EXT4, XFS, Btrfs, and ReiserFS file-systems on this very flash drive.

Durability & Appearance: The Corsair Flash Voyager GT 16GB is covered in a protective water resistant rubber coating.  Although I didn't throw the drive at wall or any other extreme activity it is obviously very durable for everyday use.

Flash memory has gotten bigger the past year and we have reviewed sizes up to 32 GB already. Today we are going to look at the Flash Voyager GT with 16GB of memory and since it is the GT line it's supposed to be a bit faster than the ordinary Voyager from Corsair.

. Even though it beats the competition by a small margin, it always manages to perform better than every other drive. The Voyager GT is also a good looking drive and the rubber body makes the drive exceptionally durable for an electronic device.
