Conclusion


Positive:

  • Good reading and writing performance.
  • Very large capacity.
  • Extension USB cable and dog tags supplied.
  • Extremely robust and durable.
  • 10 year limited warranty.

Negative:

  • Bigger and weights a little more than usual USB stick drives

Summary:


Let us summarize the most important positive and negative points below:

The main positive points:

The Corsair Flash Survivor 32GB provides a good reading and writing performance and is an ideal place for storing most of your everyday data supplementing your laptop harddisc.

The Corsair Flash Survivor 32GB is extremely durable and very well constructed and should provide the end user with a reliable means of carrying their precious data from once place to the other being an ideal companion for ruggedized laptops.

Corsair themselves are confident enough to provide a 10 year limited warranty with the Corsair Flash Survivor 32GB.

The main negative points:

The drive is a little bigger and also weights a little more than most other USB sticks. But this is a result of the extremely robust casing and probably does not matter in the environments this drive is intended for. People who do not need this durability can select the Corsair Flash Voyager series instead.


To sum up, this is what we would say:

“The drive is extremely robust and has a very large storage capacity. In addition it has a 10 year limited warranty”.

Because of the durability and storage capacity of the Corsair Flash Survivor 32GB flash drive; we decided to award the drive our CD Freaks “Safe Buy” award.

We found the Corsair Flash Survivor 32GB flash drive at Mix Computer priced at 88.90€.
