When I'm Sixty-Four

USB Flash drives are officially ubiquitous in modern society.  How do I know this?  Because your mom has one. My friends tell me that their parents have them, too, and none of them are technically savvy in the least. 

USB drives are extremely handy, and now you can pick one up for really cheap.  Those of us on the bleeding edge have discovered that a 1GB, 2GB, or even huge 16GB flash drives just won't do.  We are busy people, and we need tons of photos, programs, emulators, websites, and data with us at all times, because you never know when you'll need it.

Corsair has pushed the bleeding edge once again with their insanely huge 64GB Flash Voyager USB thumb drive.  Not only does this unit have more capacity than a laptop computer from a few years back, but it is ultra portable and can fit in your pocket or a keychain.

The Corsair Flash Voyager family of USB drives are rugged, stylish, compact, and reliable, making them ideal for transporting MP3s, digital images, presentations and more. Flash Voyager drives are fully Plug and Play with most operating systems and are backward compatible with USB 1.1.

The Corsair Flash Voyager family is comprised of two outstanding products. The Flash Voyager GT is designed from the ground up for speed, optimizing transfer rates of both reads and writes, while Flash Voyager provides a durable USB drive in large capacities.

The Flash Voyager and Flash Voyager GT are enclosed in the Corsair proprietary all-rubber housing. Boasting water-resistant properties, these drives allow users to carry more valuable data and applications without compromise. Several reviews of the Flash Voyager products have demonstrated the ruggedness, durability, and reliability of the Flash Voyager family. The Flash Voyager has been shown laundered, baked, frozen, boiled, dropped, and even run over by a SUV in many third party reviews. After all the punishment it receives, the drive continues to work.

    This drive quit on me after completely filling up the drive. Could not even format it. My theory is that there was a bad cell in there somewhere, and writing to it made the entire drive unusable.

    It is under warranty, but buyer beware.
