Overrated
(1 out of 5) by Altazar Rossiter on Jan 25, 2009 (London)I bought this after I'd put my Buffalo memory stick through the washing machine. I left the Buffalo inside a shirt pocket; has anyone else ever done that? Anyway, I decided I'd better have a spare so I bought the Corsair.
The Buffalo is two years old and still works perfectly; it lost no data despite the abuse it received. By contrast he Corsair is about three months old, it has been carefully nursed yet it has given up completely. I cannot read from it, write to it or reformat it. I leave my readers to deduce my opinion of this device! Suffice it to say my expression is frustrated by the Amazon commnetary system which does not allow me to rate it below one star.

Excellent - only prob is i keep leaving it at friends houses! LOL !
(5 out of 5) by Brendan T. Hole on Sep 13, 2008 (UK)This is great. I was about to spend £40-50 on a big plastic usb stick then my friend jumped in and told me that with the plastic ones dropping them can actually wipe it clean of all the stuff you have on it.
He told me that a rubber one is what i want to put my money into. He highly recommended a Corsair Flash Voyager his was a 16GB so i was going to buy one of them when i saw they actually now have a 32GB so this is what i bought.
The only problem i've had with it so far is i keep mislaying it at friends houses when i do work on their computer for them.
Its brilliant, I've had no problems with the actual device at all.

Durable, Water Resistant, Drop-Tested & 8GB
(5 out of 5) by N. Hill on Aug 18, 2008This is a fantastic USB drive its rugged, stylish, compact, and
reliable, I use it for my MP3s, digital images, presentations and work related stuff! cant fault it. My baby boy got hold of it and used it to bight on, didnt impacted the USB at all - not like our remote control for the TV which got wet after 5mins in his mouth and doesnt work anymore!
We have 2 hrs of video on it + 700 photos! its quick and 10 years warrenty / blazingly fast read and write speeds (31MB/s & 12MB/s).

works great
(4 out of 5) by tabs289 on Apr 4, 2008 (London)got this to backup all my hard drive. And works a treat, if you dont want to backup and then have an external sitting around in your house or office and then theres a fire and you lose everything then this is the thing to go for.
Even comes with neck lanyard so you can carry with you around neck.
