- Corsair®, a worldwide leader in high-performance computer memory, power supplies and flash memory products, including solid-state drives, today announced the 128GB Flash Voyager GT, the world’s fastest high capacity128GB USB flash drive.
The newest Flash Voyager GT is based upon a revolutionary design that employs a unique dual-controller architecture to achieve SLC-levels of performance using MLC NAND flash memory. The 128GB Flash Voyager GT is able to achieve read speeds of up to 32MB/sec and write speeds of up to 25.6MB/sec, with the limiting factor effectively being the speed of the USB 2.0 bus and operating system overhead.
“High performance is a key requirement for super-high capacity flash drives, such as the 128GB Voyager GT, simply because it is able to store such a large volume of data,” said John Beekley, the VP of Applications at Corsair. “The 128GB Voyager GT is nearly twice as fast as other high-capacity flash drives, which means less time waiting for your music, video or office files to copy to and from the drive.”
The 128GB Flash Voyager GT also utilizes a durable and water-resistant rubber housing to protect the drive against accidental damage, and sports the racing-red ‘GT’ styling that is a trademark of Corsair’s ultra high-performance products.
“The 128GB Flash Voyager GT is ideal for those who need access to a huge volume of data in a format that’s convenient, durable and extremely fast,” said Jim Carlton, VP of Marketing for Corsair. “The 128GB Flash Voyager GT can store massive video, photo and music libraries, yet it’s less than half the size of a solid-state drive, effectively obsoleting less-reliable, portable mechanical hard disk drives.”
The 128GB Flash Voyager GT is available immediately from Corsair’s authorized distributors and resellers worldwide, and is backed by a 10-Year Limited Warranty. Complete customer support via telephone, email, forum and Tech Support Express is also available.

(Vocus) October 16, 2009
Fremont, Calif. — Corsair®, a worldwide leader in high-performance computer memory, power supplies and flash memory products, including solid-state drives, today announced the new 64GB Flash Survivor USB drive, the most rugged high-capacity flash drive on the market.
Corsair’s ultra-durable Flash Survivor USB drives have proven extremely popular with consumers thanks to their super-strong, CNC-milled, aircraft-grade aluminum casing, which makes them practically indestructible. Each drive is also fitted with a molded, shock-dampening collar and EPDM seal, which provides water-resistance to a depth of 200 meters. In independent reviews, the Flash Survivor has been dropped, baked, boiled, encased in ice, zapped in a microwave and even run over by an SUV, yet it still came back for more!
The 64GB Flash Survivor boasts the same ultra-rugged credentials, with the added benefit of high storage capacity and higher performance compared to most other 64GB flash drives currently available.
“The new 64GB Flash Survivor takes the industry’s most popular rugged USB drive and takes it to the next level, with a huge amount of storage space, plus best-in-class performance,” said Jim Carlton, VP of Marketing for Corsair. “The 64GB Survivor is ideal for storing and transporting your music, videos, pictures and other important files, safe in the knowledge that your data will be safeguarded inside the Survivor’s protective shell.”
The 64GB Survivor’s ruggedness and high capacity also makes it ideal for use as a super-secure data backup device, in combination with backup products, such as Corsair’s Flash Voyager Port. Combining the 64GB Survivor with the Disaster Recovery feature of the NovaBACKUP software bundled with the Flash Voyager Port creates a near disaster-proof backup solution.
The Corsair 64GB Flash Survivor is available immediately through Corsair’s worldwide authorized dealer channel. Each drive is bundled with a USB extension cable and dog tags, and is backed by a 10-year limited warranty and comprehensive customer support via telephone, email, forum and the Tech Support Express helpdesk.

The Benefit Of Using The Corsair Flash Drive
Posted by Parkzone Corsair in Memory on November 2nd, 2010
The Benefit Of Using The Corsair Flash Drive
Many companies manufacture flash drives. Flash drives are a storage device that the user plugs into the computer’s universal serial bus (USB) to transfer data from the computer and make it possible to carry the data. An example of a flash drive manufacturer is Corsair, which manufactures flash drives that carry different features according to user preferences and how much the consumers can afford to invest in one. The Corsair Flash Drive carries security features that make sure that authorized persons only access the data stored in the Corsair Flash Drive. In this way, Corsair assures users that their information stays safe. The Corsair Company calls this pin code request feature a flash padlock and says that the device is resistant to keystroke loggers. Keystroke loggers are able to record all the keystrokes made by the user on the keyboard if their hacking programs get on flash drives. When using the Corsair Flash Drive to store information, it would be impossible for hackers to access your information because everyone has to type in a password before plugging the flash drive into the USB port. This flash padlock is therefore the best way for the user to secure data while travelling. There is also no obligation required to get this feature because the Corsair Flash Drive comes with this pin request feature and its installation takes place automatically. It indicates to the user that it is either locked or unlocked by the presence of indicator lights. It also locks automatically fifteen seconds after the user removes it from the computer, which is good, especially if the user forgets to lock it.
Corsair also has another flash drive called the flash survivor. This Corsair Flash Drive offers data protection against shock or vibrations and water. The reason for the safety features is that at times data gets lost from the physical damage of flash disks. It is possible for users to accidentally step on them or forget them in their clothes when washing. However, the Corsair Flash Drive called the flash survivor is able to withstand such hostile impact. A hard aluminum container protects it from damage even if the Corsair Flash Drive were to fall from high heights or if it falls in water.Â
The other advantage of the Corsair Flash Drive known as the flash survivor is its capability to transfer data fast. It fulfills this feature, which is a major requirement in these days where most people demand flash drives that are effective and fast in data transfer. It transfers data with the speed of 18.9 megabytes per second. Therefore, Corsair’s flash survivor makes it easy for the user to write, read and transfer data. This Corsair Flash Drive also comes with a ten-year warranty and its price ranges between seventy and one hundred and fifty dollars. This is not expensive because the features and ten-year warranty of the flash survivor from Corsair are worth it. With these features, it is possible to see the benefits of getting Corsair Flash Drives because they will ensure that your data remains safe, secure and lasts as long as you want it to last.
