- Strengths:
- - Very fast read/write speed (typically 10 MB/s write and 30 MB/s read)
- Feels fairly solid
- Has worked for me for about 8 months (can't remember exact purchase date)
- Reasonable price
- Weaknesses:
- - Cap is not attached, easily lost (mine has been gone for ages)
- Circuit can fall out of rubber casing
- Summary:
- 4 stars because of the rubber casing issues. Other than that, it functions both fast and reliably - no complaints.
Bad deal.

- Strengths:
- Tough rubber coating.
- Weaknesses:
- Extremely slow write speed. I tried copying a folder(13.2GB) to the flash voyager it took over 40 minutes, compared to a 16GB Kingston DT101 G2 with the same advertised write speed. Does not come with any software or the cable.
- Summary:
- Wouldn't buy bad quality product and make sure you match the serial number on the box to the usb stick before you take it out of the shop. Be aware that it doesn't come with Lanyard, Usb cable or true crypt. I tried to return the product and they said that they wouldn't take return because the serial number doesn't match. What a rip off. Last time I'm buying from these guys.

- Strengths:
- Fast, Slim, Durable rubber coating.
- Weaknesses:
- It did not come with the lanyard or driver cd that it says it comes with on the website. I personally do not care that it doesn't come with the driver cd but the lanyard would have been nice.
- Summary:
- Great USB drive for the price you pay. It cost the same as my Patriot Xporter 16 gb, but is less bulky and is just as fast. I haven't had any issues with it failing, but then ive never had any of my drives fail, I think its partly due to how you treat them. Plus chances are I'll lose it or just stop using it before the 10 year warrenty is up.

- Strengths:
- Fast
- Weaknesses:
- High failure rate
- Summary:
- I have now had two of these devices and both of them have failed the same way. At first I really liked the speed of these devices. The first failed with in less than a year. Corsair replaced it with one double the capacity. I have had this one for less than a year and now it has failed the same way. I have never had any other brand usb memory stick fail on me and I have had serveral.

- Strengths:
- Small, Light, Well protected in rubber
- Weaknesses:
- The various sizes should be color-coded. They are all the same color and this make it difficult to know what size you are working with when you have 3 or 4 on a lanyard.
- Summary:
- Have purchased 8 of these from Memory Express and they are bullet-proof. Have had a ZERO Failure Rate and they very durable. Only brand I buy now.
