Corsair Voyager GT 16Gb + 4Gb USB Drives Review

Corsair’s Flash Voyager USB drives have been laundered, baked, frozen, boiled, dropped, and even run over by an SUV… They still work, holding data, even after extreme punishment. Durable, rugged, compact, enclosed in a water-resistant, all-rubber casing, the Corsair Flash Voyager series of USB drives are now available in 4Gb, 8Gb, 16Gb, 32Gb capacities. MadShrimps takes a look at the entry-level 4Gb Voyager and 16Gb Voyager GT models:

If you want faster write speeds the Voyager GT will surely deliver. This new product in the Voyager product series comes in red and sports dual channel controller for extra speed. Offered in one size only (for now) of 16Gb you can quickly fill it up at 21~22Mb/s which is almost twice as fast as the single-channel competition.

The 8Gb Voyager version marks the best price/size in this list of products until the price of the 16Gb comes down of course. The GT is remarkably not as expensive as first assumed, comparing prices with the vanilla Voyager the extra write speed boost is worth it if you often fill/empty that 16Gb storage space.
