 Surprised, Great Product! November 13, 2008
The Corsair 8GB Flash Survivor USB 2.0 Flash Drive is a great product for the price and the offered durability. It is enclosed in airplane steel holds up to 8 GB. While the upload is slow, the price, style, durability and storage space exceeds this minor flaw. Hands down, this is great value for the price! I highly recommend.
 very very safe flash drive :) November 9, 2008
this flashdrive is awesome
the build quality is so good that i had no trouble demonstrating it to my coworkers by throwing the thing around in a bad way
the speed of the flashdrive is dissapointing though - it is noticeably slower than any of the other ones i own even when freshly reformatted
Works for me. November 8, 2008
Great size and can travel in my lunch box without fear of a liquid leak killing my data.
Cool looking, durable, and reliable but average usb 2.0 speeds November 3, 2008
User Profile
Here's a little background about what I use flash drives for. I use a flash drive for three reasons: keep all of my documents on me (school, personal, business, web page design, programming, what have you), keep a good reference library with me, and to run some portable apps.
Pros
*Looks cool
*Very strong casing. I suspect this flash drive could even survive an excursion in the pressure cooker. There are lots of reviews out there where people put this through the washer, run it over, hit it with golf clubs, drop in the pool for days, etc and it seems to do really well there.
*Portable applications run well on the drive
*Comes with keychain stuff, so it is nice to just keep the flashdrive on my keychain with no special usb stick case required
*The obviously larger storage capacity
*10 year warrenty (keep those reciepts scanned into your computer :) )
Cons
*The speed is just average for usb 2.0 flash drives: not horrible, but not excellent. For the price, I'd like excellent.
Final Thoughts
This was a good, worthwhile purchase. I expect this could be my primary flash drive some years until flash drives come in such a large capacity that they are essentially mini-back-up hard drives :) I'm sure this could be useful for 10 years or so if I really wanted it to be. The design seems especially nice if you happen to work in a hazardous place like a chemical plant, power plant, construction site, or some large scale manufacturing place or are especially prone to destroying flash drives.

I purchased two of these. One works fine; the other does not. It asks to be formated when I plug it into my computer. This happened on the second day of use. Followed the instructions on the website to reformat the drive, when the standard methods failed. No luck, was told by Corsair that I have to send in the drive to be analyzed. They have had the drive for a week now and still no response. I have little experience with this company, but this does not bode well.
