Abstract: Corsair’s Flash Voyager isn’t the largest thumb drive around, but it sure is affordable, as well as speedy. In our tests, the Voyager ran away from all the others here in large-file transfers, and only Kingston’s drive could match it in medium-size JP...

So, now I have two drives, a 1GB and an 8GB! Ive had the 1GB for about 8 months now and I use it all the time. However when I needed to move more than 1GB of information, it got tricky. Now that I have an 8GB, problem solved! I must say too, that...

Realistically, I dont think anyone would accidentally microwave a flash drive, or drop it into a fireplace, but common household accidents are a fact of life. We already know the Flash Voyager can survive a desktop drop, a swim in the kitchen sink an...

Just because you want a bit of extra protection for your files doesn't mean you need a USB stick that can survive three weeks of abuse in the Amazon. Don't get us wrong – the shock- and water-proof Voyager is no shrinking violet, but by keeping the rugged credentials to sensible levels the Voyager manages to be considerably more affordable than most of its rivals.
While the Voyager's semi-ruggedness appeals for the most part, there are some flaws. The rubber cap that protects the USB connector isn't attached to the main body in any way, making it easy to lose. And while the middle-of-the-road approach makes it a strong all-rounder, it also leaves it lacking knockout appeal in any particular area.
The Corsair Voyager is by no means the toughest USB stick around, but in reality it provides more than enough protection than most of us will ever need. Decent performance and good value for money are important real-world strengths, and combine to make...
