This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager USB 3.0 16 GB, Read 200 MBs - Write 25 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVY3A-16GB)
Pros: High Speed transfer rate, nice rubber case to protect it from drops. Exactly as expected for a Corsair product
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: This works perfectly out of the box, high speed transfer outpaces all my other USB drives by a mile. Great for moving movies and large files.
Note: Make sure to reformat into NTFS or EXT4, FAT32's size limit makes this not as useful.

This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager USB 3.0 16 GB, Read 200 MBs - Write 25 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVY3A-16GB)
Pros: I like the brand
Cons: Always liked and supported Corsair. Always trusted their products. But recent experience is telling me to think twice before getting Corsair.
This drive was used a few times then stored in drawer for a couple of months. Took it out today, guess what? It's dead. Used on two computers, Windows and Linux. It's just not recognized anymore. I've never had a flash drive fail, this is the first and it's a Corsair.
Other Thoughts: Bought a Corsair LS SSD recently; it's the slowest I've had. Even slower than the Kingston 64G I bought many years ago. The firmware update is also a disaster, it tried to update older firmware to the drive.
Corsair, if you're listening, please step up or you're going to lose your hard earned reputation and customer.
This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager USB 3.0 16 GB, Read 200 MBs - Write 25 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVY3A-16GB)
Pros: Bounces when dropped. Reads 200+ mb, writes 12+/- mb @ .63 msec access time. Tested with linux Disk utiltiy.
Cons: No cap retainer, no lanyard. I knew that when I bought it.
Other Thoughts: Has slow write, but I am mainly interested in read speed. Have formatted and installed linux live and linux utilities many times and booted from this drive with no problems.
This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager USB 3.0 16 GB, Read 200 MBs - Write 25 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVY3A-16GB)
Pros: Flash drive is quite durable, I didn't have to worry about the USB port bent out of shape like other flash drive.
Cons: USB 3.0 is a joke, speed is not much faster than USB 2.0. Stopped working after 3 years.
Other Thoughts: I submitted a RMA request for the drive flash since it is under 5 years warrenty by Corsair although it has been almost a week I still haven't heard anything back from Corsair.

This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager USB 3.0 16 GB, Read 200 MBs - Write 25 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVY3A-16GB)
Pros: Better compatibility that my last picky adata drive. Write speed double rated specs. It has an activity light, many drives are leaving them off now.
Cons: Read speed slower than rated, but still good.
Other Thoughts: Its rated 25 / 200, I got 48 / 122MB/s.
On USB 2 it maxes out the port at 32MB/s read and write.
