Corsair Flash Voyager GT USB Thumb Drive

Tue, 14 Jul 2009 21:48:36 -0500

Corsair's got a cute rubber flash drive on their hands, I gotta say. Black with red and yellow highlights, the GT looks fairly swift. It's ruggedized and water-resistant, without frills, except maybe the blue LED. I like the design, although I do see a couple of points of failure.

PNY Attache USB Thumb Drive

Not every flash drive can be fast, or can be pretty, or can be sturdy, big, small, capacious, easy to find, and discreet. No, some are just a little ugly. PNY�s Attache bears little of the elegance its name may be associated with, but it�s safe to say it does have a few things going for it.

OCZ Rally 2 USB Thumb Drive

Fri, 19 Jun 2009 01:11:16 -0500

Though the flash drive doesn�t have the classic OCZ cheesegrater heatspreaders, it is completely clad in what looks to me to be lightly-powdercoated aluminum. Which makes it one of the toughest, if simple, flash drives I�ve ever used. The charcoal body has its decorations but nothing that stand out over the blazing orange activity light.

Corsair Flash Survivor

Thu, 23 Apr 2009 15:11:11 -0500

Did you ever want to use a flash drive as a weapon? Like, reach into your pocket as two shifty characters come towards you, and clutching it like a roll of quarters, use it to line up all your knuckles into a perfect, orbit-crushing fist? Yeah, well, now that I�ve planted that idea in your head, let me introduce Corsair�s Flash Survivor to you. This flash drive is designed to withstand, or at the very least, designed to look like it withstands. While I would say that it�s unnecessarily wrought, there probably is a market for undestroyable flash drives. Without a doubt this flash drive is as solid as they come; if something could take out the case, then certainly it�s force that should worry its owner in an oncoming semi kind of way.

The Cruzer Titanium is SanDisk's answer to harsh work environments where physical protection of portable data is required. This model has a titanium-coated metal casing which SanDisk claims is "virtually indestructible.'

Crucial Gizmo! High Speed USB 2.0 Drive

Mon, 3 Jan 2005 23:34:14 -0600

The first Gizmo, as most other drives at the time, was a bit bulky and didn't support USB 2.0 speeds. The Gizmo we will be checking out today is Crucial's third revision of the drive which has become very well known for its extremely small size.

Corsair Flash Voyager USB Drive

Already being one of the leaders in the memory market, Corsair's move to flash memory and USB drives was an obvious one. Today we will be taking a look at Corsair's first USB drive, the Flash Voyager. *Editor's Choice Award*

JetFlash 16mb USB Drive

Wed, 4 Jun 2003 01:00:00 -0500

Overall this is a decent product that doesn't really compete with other USB drives. For just a couple of dollars more you can purchase a Pen Drive with much better performance and USB 2.0 compliance.
