Corsair 16GB Flash Voyager USB Flash Drive

Corsair 16GB flash stick

Posted Apr 14, 2007 - I do not hand out compliments where none are warranted. This is an extremely reliable bit of technology for me, so far. Back ups are fast and perfect, to date. I love that I can store so much on something I can keep in my pocket.

Sturdy, fast flash drive

Posted Jun 1, 2007 - This flash storage drive is easy to use. I like the convenient size, not too small or too big. Item is sturdy, and one is not afraid to drop it. Transfers files quickly & easily. Whopping 16gb storage, so I don't have to have carry around several flash drives.

Eventually, such USB devices will replace my harddrives.

Posted Aug 1, 2007 - Input and output speed for this USB device is superior. Also, have used this USB device for a 4GB ReadyBoost swap file. Eventually, such USB devices will replace my harddrives.

Excellent Product

Posted Jan 3, 2008 - Good price. However, price dropped by $8 a week later. You need to constantly check price. The flash drive feel very confortable to hold and feels very sturdy. The drive is a little bulky and take up too much space if your usb ports are next to each other. However, to remedy this problem, corsair does provide an extension usb cord with the flash drive. In addition, the transfer rate is fast. The software for data encrption is very good and easy to use.

Great USB Drive

Posted Nov 28, 2007 - I've had the 4gig version for over a year: this fast, reliable drive is great. I've seen some complaints about the cap falling off, but all caps can fall off (and Corsair will replace it if you lose it) so I don't see that as a problem. It is worth the extra cash.

Fastest and toughest on the market

Posted Aug 31, 2007 - Extremely durable and water resistant. Reliably fast speeds that Corsair is known for. Next I'm going to see if I can use it as a bootable hard drive, portable wherever I go!

Stone Cold Awesome!

Posted Mar 10, 2007 - This is an absolutely incredible device. As an IT professional this is a lifesaver. It is fast and 16 gigs. Don't hesitate, spend the extra $75 bucks and get this 16 gig device.

LOVE THIS DRIVE!

Posted Mar 26, 2007 - Love the rubber case and the blue light matches my hp dv8000t's lights! :) Overall I think this is an amazing drive. It did work right away with Windows Vista and ReadyBoost, but I reformatted it to NTFS to make it faster. I love how I can put anything on it! :) Great package and i know some people complain about the over but it is like any usb memory stick... you can lose any of the covers. So this one is just like the rest but better cause it is rubber :) I LOVE IT !: )

16 gb Voyager

Posted Apr 10, 2007 - I am really pleased with this device. Its very quick to retrieve and write data, its compact and comes with all you need to get going immediately. I've had a few of these of smaller size but it appears that this one is the first one someone actually sat down and thought about. The majority of these once you get past the 2 and 4 gb's are of the size that makes your other USB connections unusable blocking the free ports.

Nice storage space but VERY slow with Outlook pst file

Posted Sep 12, 2007 - I use it for portability of my ever-growing Outlook pst file. Since moving my pst file to this thumb drive, I have found my Outlook response time has increased dramatically, to the point of painfully slow. I have tried it with Outlook on 2 different computers so far. Had I known ahead of time the response time hit I would experience, I would have bought from another manufacturer. Or I would have gone with an 8GB thumb drive with positive speed reviews, which would still be an upgrade over my previous 4GB thumb drive.

Gawd-awful SLOW - why don't they make firewire drives?

Posted 2 months ago - I need to transfer my mail folder between computers, both Macintoshes. If I use a firewire connection between the two computers, the 3.5GB file gets transferred in a few minutes. Hoping to not have to continue to lug my laptop to the office every time I want to update the mail folder, I thought I'd try a large capacity flash drive. I just took delivery today, plugged it in, and found there is NO WAY that this is a practical option. The computer estimated it would take two hours to transfer the same file. Guess I'm back to lugging the laptop around. BTW, why don't they still make firewire flash drives? This file transfer is relatively fast using the computer's firewire.

Corsair 16GB Thumbdrive

Posted 1 year ago - I wish that I could get past the negative here, but I can't. This was used daily for about the past six months. Recently, the entire volume was currupted - unrecoverable by the way. Furtunately I backed it up weekly. I formated it and tried it again. Within a week it was lost again. After disecting it, I noticed that it had no structural support for the PCB - hence the board flexing could be an issue. Anyway, we're shopping for a replacement.

good buy for the money

Posted 1 year ago - although it's not quiet as fast as corsair gt versions when it comes to transfer speeds, it's still pretty fast nevertheless and along with it's large 16gb storage and nice rubber protection padding and usb extension cord all for not much more than $40 makes this a great buy that offers a lot of bang for the buck. this is a product you can't go wrong with.

An amazing flash drive at an amazing price!

Posted Dec 14, 2007 - I was looking for a 16GB flash drive that had decent reviews, and this one fit the bill. There were a few reviews for this on other websites that mentioned slow transfer rates; however, I haven't witnessed this issue. (FYI: I've used this on both XP Home and XP Professional and have achieved really decent transfer speeds.) This is USB 2.0 compatible flash memory, and the fact that I have portability for 16GB worth of data is amazing! The only down side that I've seen is that the rubber coating/shell is awkward when trying to pull the drive out of your jean pockets. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say. This seems to fit my needs for now.
