When you're traveling, it is important to protect your bags, passport, and valuables. Corsair can do the same for your data. That's why the
USB flash drives in its Flash Voyager line are encased in a rugged, rubberized enclosure that guards against moisture and shock.
It works, but the protection makes the drive a little too chubby to fit some of the more recessed USB ports. We tested the GT model, which the company says is designed for speed, with special integrated circuits for better performance. Our tests didn't show it outdistancing read/write speeds of other top-line USB thumb drives.
The Voyager isn't long, but the rubber housing bulges in the middle, so at its thickest the drive measures 52mm by 22mm by 15mm (HWD). It includes a 2-foot USB extender cable, so you can plug it into just about any USB port you may encounter. It also has a Corsair-branded black neck lanyard with a clip on the end. One outstandingly bad design aspect is the removable rubberized cap: When it's attached, it fits like a snug rubber shower cap and provides superior protection, but it's small enough to be almost sure to get lost—and without it, the drive is no safer than any other.
