Customer Review: MORE DURABLE THAN ANY OF THE PLASTIC CRAP OUT THERE!
Summary: 4 Stars
The truth is the light and that said there is no denying Corsair makes what must unquestionably be the slowest drives. This Corsair drive is the slowest writing storage device on the planet bar none. I have two of the 32 gig version of this USB drive and its so slow I would never use it to actually store 32 gigs of information. I am 50 years old and I would not live long enough to see a corsair 32 gig drive complete a 32 gig write. Even with USB2 ports any corsair drive of this type is painfully slow.
The coolness of this corsair drive is not in its speed but in its durability. I do not know what drive some of these reviewers git hold of but, the Corsair 32 gig drives of this type that I have are so much more sturdy than the fragile plastic wrapped crap, most notably the Kingston Traveler series of drives. These drives are like steel trash cans that protect your drive. I have a 370 pound 6 foot 8 inch friend. I gave him one of my Corsair 32 bit drives.
My big biker friend puts USB drives in his back pocket sits down without thinking. I lost 2 cheap plastic 4 gig Kingston Travelers and a 256KB LEXAR drives broken in my big friends back pocket. He is a nice guy, he just forgets. Unknown to me at the time he put my Corsair 32 gig drive in his back pocket and we rode on a motorcycle from Baltimore to Washington DC. I give speeches on autism to parents, doctors and interested people often with the help of PowerPoint Presentations.
My Power Point Presentation was on that 32 gig USB drive in my big friends back pants pocket. I had no spare copy of the presentation. When he reached to take the Corsair drive out of his back jeans pocket, my heart sank. I realized suddenly, I had no power point the drive was dead as the others he can squashed into uselessness. I was mistaken. This drive emerged from his back jeans pocket looking good. We went into the hotel ballroom, gave the drive to the technical dude who inserted the drive into the computer. A few painful seconds later the OS recognised the Corsair drive, there was my powerpoint and all was good.
So yeah when I say this drive is durable it survived, the over 40 mile bumpy motorcycle ride from North of Baltimore to Metro Washington DC. This Corsair USB drive arrived after 40+ miles of hard abuse with itself and its data intact. I can not say the two Kingston Travelers and the LEXAR USB drives survived the same experience useful or intact. The Lexar was so badly broken the memory circuit board connected to the USB connected broke off. I am just an average JOE so what do I know. All I can say is my Corsair USB drive works for me.
I have cerebral palsy, I walk badly fall alot and drop these drives often. I have dropped Kingston Travelers and the brittle plastic end covers crack like cheap china. Lexars bend. This version of the Corsair in its little steel trash can housing has survived all the abuse my cerebral palsy caused falls and dropping can do and they still work. I am buying three more Corsair 8 Gig USB drives to replace the 3 fragile broken 4 GIG Kingston Travelers lost. I killed one my friend killed two. Kingston makes a great USB storage device but it is wraped in the cheapest case money can buy. I would not bother buying the Corsair 32 GIG way too slow. But for safe keeping of 4 to 8 gigs of data Corsair is the BOMB BIGGITY BABY!
