This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager GT USB 3.0 64 GB, Read 240 MBs - Write 100 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVYGT3B-64GB)
Pros: rubber casing fast competitive pricing
Cons: not too big of a con but it may seem a little bulky for some but personally i like the size of it and the grip to the rubber housing
Other Thoughts: I did some benchmarking with this and the results were pretty good. I won't bore you with all the results but In a USB 3.0 port on my laptop ATTO benchmark tool tested this USB drive around 75MBs write and between 225 and 235MBs read. I have used this drive as an install disk for Windows 8 and it worked great. I mainly use this drive to transfer movies. I get great transfer speeds from my SSD to this drive... usually between 75 and 95MBs. So bottom line is if you are the market for a speedy durable USB drive you will not be disappointed with one.

This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager GT USB 3.0 64 GB, Read 240 MBs - Write 100 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVYGT3B-64GB)
Pros: I like how it feels in the hand. looks nice and pro. It does work in usb 3.0 and 2.0
Cons: This is my second review on this product. It's too thick for some ports or cases. Thinner is better? This is the second drive I received of this product and It did not work in my ports until I push the drive to the left and hold it there. Then it worked perfectly, BUT? Who wants a drive you have to hold it in place for it to work. That's crazy !! Also, this drive has eject issues. I close it myself and it still says it's open when it is not. As I have said in my other review, I have used other usb drives in the same ports with no issues at all. just issues with this usb drive. Just wanted to tell others to buy another usb drive or maybe you will be fortunate to get a good one.
Other Thoughts: I RMA'd the first drive for the same problem, and the second one has the same problem too??? MMM??? A bad batch it seams? It cost me $10.50 to send the first drive + $65 + another RMA and $10.50 mmm this is adding up to be one expensive drive. It will not pay for me to send this drive back, again, so I am not going to RMA this, again. I'm just going to live with holding it in or maybe I'll use some scotch tape on it until I'm done with it or get so fed up with it and just throw it away. This is the first Corsair usb stick I have bought and my last one as well !! UNLESS Corsair refunds all my money I have lost AND give me a good working usb 3.0 drive like I wanted in the first place. Is that too much too ask?? Why should the customer lose money because of there bad drives???

Pros: Comparing this to the Corsair Voyager Slider, both in 64gb installments, I have to go with this new design. No clunky slider mechanism which doesn't stay put.
I prefer rubber shell guard of this drive and cap. Led is not too intense. Read speedy and smoothly. Test with an Airbook and it reads and writes fine.
I feel this drive with its durable exterior and usb 3 performance will last a very long time. This drive is best for important docs, photo backup and music. It's better to go to a slim portable harddrive if you want to move HD movies around.

This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager GT USB 3.0 64 GB, Read 240 MBs - Write 100 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVYGT3B-64GB)
Pros: I like that this drive is formatted with FAT32. It makes copying large files from my Lenovo laptop much easier. No need to use one flash drive for regular files and another for the large ones.
I use it on a KDLINKS HD700 3D Media Player to broadcast to my Panasonic HD TV. The files always come in crisp and clear.
I have yet to have a problem with sync quality as I have with other flash drives.
Also, there are no problems with my computer telling me it has to repair the drive after I’ve used it on the Kdlinks Media Player. Other flash drives would often warn that the drive had to be repaired..
Of course the flash drive being USB 3.0 with 64 gigs makes the copying process much faster.
I’ve had about 27 gigs on the drive with no slowdown in moving any of the files.
Cons: The clamshell packaging is hard to open.
Other Thoughts: Corsair states that depending on product family, the duration of warranty is from two (2) years to lifetime. To find out to which product family this flash drive belongs, you have to go to www.corsair.com/support/warranty. Warranty returns must be made at your expense.

Pros: Rugged rubberized housing. Fast USB 3.0 read/write speeds. Great overall performance.
The removable cap is also rubber and fits very snugly onto the drive. Even carrying it around in the front pocket of my jeans, it never came off.
This Flash Voyager GT from Corsair seems like a great USB 3.0 drive, it's well built, and it's pretty fast compared to other flash drives I have used. Great for the tech on the go, storing data, or moving large quantities of data around quickly.
How quickly?
* AIDA64 Disk Benchmark *
With block sizes from 256KB to 8MB, the numbers were very tight and average as follows
Linear Read: 145.1 MB/s Random Read: 154.1 MB/s
Buffered reads had a wider range and were as follows.
This review is from: Corsair Flash Voyager GT USB 3.0 64 GB, Read 240 MBs - Write 100 MBs, Plug and Play (CMFVYGT3B-64GB)
Pros: Like most Corsair flash usb drives, they just work and work well. I had an older USB 2.0 16GB that failed after four years, but with a 10-yr warranty, I'm sure they would have replaced it. I have the 64GB GT model (this one being reviewed), and the performance is quite good. No issues reading data at over 100MB/sec and writing data at 50-100MB/sec.
Cons: It's big and bulky. Sometimes it's difficult to squeeze it into USB slots due to its size. My model allows me to take the inside part out, where it's smaller. Be careful, though, not all models come apart like this

Pros: Works first time and every time. Has carried High Dollar IT $tuff & detailed Medical Records for myself + Favorite Wife. Each time it has received, carried and transferred all required data without any type of degradation of the records. Well worth the spent money. Get one and tell them that "Pop sent me!" !

Pros: Very well made. Sturdy and well protected in rubber.
Cons: The usb port has to have a lot of juice. My front header on my case is usb 2 and does not run it.
Other Thoughts: This is the best usb drive out there. I have a draw full of broken drives from other drives.
