Rating: - USB Connector Falls Off
I bought this particular drive (4 gig version, back when the price was higher) because it appeared to have a solid build and I liked the soft, "easy grip" exterior. The drive worked fine, but after about 6 months of light use and careful handling, the USB connector came loose and fell off. I tried to reseat it, but no go.
Also, I think all such drives ought to have a capless design, or at least have the cap fit the end, like a pen cap does. I've also seen some that are tied to the device. A cap is just too easy to lose. However, I must admit--leaving the cap in a visible location ... Read More
Rating: - As advertised
Got this in the mail, plugged it in, and it works. It does create a window in WinXP that says I could get faster service if I plugged into a USB 2.0 port...but my computer doesn't have one. I haven't dropped it in anything wet to test the waterproof claim. Of course, I assume that claim is only valid if the rubber cap is over the business end!!
Rating: - disastrously slow
I bought this thumb drive to transport large log files from a contract job.
Unfortunately I have found that the file transfer speed is *REALLY* slow.
USB2.0? Flash? I'm getting anywhere from 500KB/s to 2.5 MB/s transfer rates from my computer drive to the Corsair drive.
This is on a modern unloaded Macbook Pro. I'm currently looking at 4 hours to transfer 6GB of 100MB files. LOCALLY.
Rating: - GREAT !!!
8 GB's.... This is a great product! I literally have no issues what so ever. One of the biggest benefits to this item is that it has a rubber shock absorbent outer layer, which is great for me because I'm constantly using and on occasion dropping my flash drive's, so to me this is a pretty big deal. (:
Rating: - Great Capacity, fast enough
I'm a big fan of this product. With the 16 gb capacity, I'm able to put almost anything I need on it. It's much faster than burning a CD, and much more changeable. I wonder if I'll ever have to defrag it!
I have used it for transferring music files, photos, and text files to another computer as well as backing up data. I've dropped it a few time, with no signs that I did, physically or data-wise.
I thought it was a great deal for the capacity. I'm sure the price will go down significantly soon, but I needed this size NOW.
