Corsair CMFVY3A-64GB 64 GB USB 3.0 Flash Voyager Flash Drive, Black

Good and solid construction. Decent benchmarks and probably could do better in a better system than mine. Very happy with it.

Once upon a time when USB flash drives were new to the market, I had a 1GB (or 512MB, can't remember) Corsair Flash Voyager, and I was not unimpressed with what it could do. In These days flash drives are like 3.5" floppies were 15 years ago. Also like floppies, most inexpensive USB drives have been great on reads, but slow as daylight on writes. This is not one of those drives. Copying a large file (a 1.5gb .WMV movie) over USB 3.0 (from a 1TB Samsung 850 Evo) saw sustained transfer speeds between 59MB/s and 61MB/s. Copying the same movie back to the SSD saw speeds between 89MB/s and 91MB/s. Even small transfers (a folder of images ranging from 300KB to 800KB), which is where USB drives usually suffer badly, completed at a very respectable 11MB/s. My first Corsair Voyager lasted about 8 years until I connected it to a wrongly wired USB port, and until that time, despite heavy usage, I never lost a file, so I have great expectations for this drive.The one downside I can find with this drive, and it is a small one, and it may be my computer, is that it takes several seconds to be recognized. While not a downside worth docking a star for, the original Corsair Voyagers shipped with a utility which could create a password protected encrypted partition, but these days there are several drives, including some made by Corsair, with hardware level encryption.Of course as soon as it was delivered the price dropped by $1, but isn't that always the way?

This item works very well.

Easy to use and great performance.

I gave it 4 stars because I just got it. If it is running well in 2 years, I will make it 5 stars. I have had a number of USB drives that have failed me, and I have lost data, but I have had several Corsair drives that have been faithful. Until they fail me, I am good with them, AND the value is good also.

I have 3 of these Corsair Flash Voyager drives (16, 32, 64 gb). I don't use them probably like most people. I put stuff on there I want to keep and they go in a box until I get ready to update them. I did have the small one while 4 years in college and it worked great. A couple of times I forgot about the small cap but luckily it was still there (who wants a rubber cap?) I never had a problem and feel like these are very sturdy and they hold anything I threw at them and never lost data. I have plugged these into my smart tv and played mp4 files. Just make sure you get the size you can afford. I also use Windows 7 platform so if you use Apple products I'm not sure how that differs. I usually buy one a year to put everything on just for a backup to a backup to a backup just in case.

Great, easy to use flash drive was already formatted for my ps4 needs. The 64g is far more than enough for what I need it for, so I can use it later on to store anything else, if I have to, I can simply reformat by plugging into a PC and checking the correct format box. Highly recommend for use of storing and transferring files, media, ect. I'll be using this same drive for any of those needs.
