| |  | Electronics Corsair 16GB Flash Voyager USB 2.0 Flash Drive - CMFUSB2.0-16GB |  | | | | | | | | | | Rating:  - Not as good as it seems
I have to agree with many of the reviews here. After having tried many different USB flash memories, I have to say this one comes short ofwhat I expected. I can name a few disappointing things:
- bulky design
- may be water resistant but it easily bent from the adapter and died, so it's not so rugged after all
- compared to other flash memories it has SLOW performance, specially when transfering many small files. the slowest I've ever tried.
- cap comes off easily
Rating:  - USB Connector Falls Off
I bought this particular drive (4 gig version, back when the price was higher) because it appeared to have a solid build and I liked the soft, "easy grip" exterior. The drive worked fine, but after about 6 months of light use and careful handling, the USB connector came loose and fell off. I tried to reseat it, but no go.
Also, I think all such drives ought to have a capless design, or at least have the cap fit the end, like a pen cap does. I've also seen some that are tied to the device. A cap is just too easy to lose. However, I must admit--leaving the cap in a visible location helped me to not forget and leave the drive in my school computer.

Got this in the mail, plugged it in, and it works.It does create a window in WinXP that says I could get faster service if I plugged into a USB 2.0 port...but my computer doesn't have one.I haven't dropped it in anything wet to test the waterproof claim.Of course, I assume that claim is only valid if the rubber cap is over the business end!!
Rating: - disastrously slow
I bought this thumb drive to transport large log files from a contract job.
Unfortunately I have found that the file transfer speed is *REALLY* slow.
USB2.0?Flash?I'm getting anywhere from 500KB/s to 2.5 MB/s transfer rates from my computer drive to the Corsair drive.
This is on a modern unloaded Macbook Pro.I'm currently looking at 4 hours to transfer 6GB of 100MB files. LOCALLY.
Rating: - GREAT !!!
8 GB's.... This is a great product! I literally have no issues what so ever. One of the biggest benefits to this item is that it has a rubber shock absorbent outer layer, which is great for me because I'm constantly using and on occasion dropping my flash drive's, so to me this is a pretty big deal.
