Perfect survival USB stick BUT…

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2023

This usb key is BUILT tough. Works fast & smooth so far. The ONLY downside is that it’s way too long and FAT. Sometimes doesn’t fit my desktop usb slot in the back because of other usb attachments getting in the way. But other than that everything is great. Thank you Corsair. –Roman1

Good storage but not unbreakable

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2022

This usb storage device is not all its cut out to be. Supposed to be “unbreakable” but underneath all the aluminum it has a plastic piece that attaches it to the capsule itself. This causes the USB capsule to be a lot more fragile than the marketing says it is..so now I just have a usb stick and a supposedly “unbreakable” capsule.. separated from each other..thanks Corsair really nailed it with this one.

This is the perfect thumb drive for my job as a secret agent! ;). High quality. I have an older version that worked flawlessly for many many years (lost it unfortunately).

Excellent for recovery drives and durability

I used this is a recovery drive for windows 11 and it works wonderfully and gives me piece of mind with the shock resistance and water proofness. Only thing I think they should include in the future is maybe a lanyard and/or keyring for the lanyard hole.

Great for storing important files or family photos, etc in case of an Emergency situation

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2023

A really resilient and tough USB Drive that is highly recommended by many Emergency and survivalist professionals for emergency evacuations in case of wildfires or an emergency bug-out situation. I like it a lot. It's Very sturdy and it can be carried around in a backpack with lots of heavy books or in heavy tools kit box or backpack and no need to worry about it being broken. I like this tough USB Drive. My only issue is there is no password protection feature on it. That's not a deal breaker for using this for a school or college USB Drive. And if definitely recommend it as a bug-out bag for holding important files and family photos and videos. Clouds aren't as secure as people think. They can be hacked or files can be stolen or get corrupted. In case you have to relocate in a war and have no internet. Then you'll still need a USB Drive.

When it comes to my 'Portable Office' I don't mess around. I have been utilizing Corsairs Flashdrives 'EXCLUSIVELY' for many, many years now... and disappointment or failure is ZERO part of this brand.
It all started with me many, many years ago when my sister, a College Professor, called to tell me that her computer had crashed. I recommended a couple of Professional Recovery Specialist because her E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G was on her hard drive. It was an expensive proposition but it HAD to be done.
Because I myself, am a published writer, and I have invaluable original works that can NEVER be reproduced in its original form, I began researching external storage devices. I can remember when a 512MB Flashdrive cost $500!!! Of course I passed at that initial time, but this was now much later when I began searching and researching for something of superior quality to store and transport my created works.
It was then that I came across the detailed research articles referencing Corsair Survivor Flashdrives. They were a little costly then, but I'm a firm believer in ' you get what you pay for', so with a then, 10 Year Product Warranty, as an integral part of the initial offering, I decided to invest for the protection of my life’s investment. After all, logic dictated to me, what company would guarantee a product warranty that length of time if it was doomed to fail within a few years.
From there... I've never looked back!
I still have and use that original flashdrive as well as continue to purchase new ones from time to time for backup. I NEVER, EVER store anything on my hard drive... NEVER!!!
I teach and upgrade the computer skills of many of our country's veterans for U.S. Vets and I mandate to all of them to purchase ONLY Corsair Survivor Flashdrives from the inception or they fail my class.
And, I absolutely love their pricing now which is highly competitive with other brands out there, but why would one pay an equitable price for an inferior product?

File too large error

Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017

Verified Purchase

Great drive, solid construction with an air-tight seal, also has a blinking status light. I purchased the 32GB version and I have about 30gb of free space on a fresh format. These variations are to be expected, but the majority of the advertised size is definitely there. Note for buyers, if you are getting the "file too large" error you need to format the drive to the NTFS file system. The default FAT32 file system only supports files up to 4GB in size. You should backup your data before doing this! Go to "My Computer" and right click on the Corsair thumb drive. From this menu you should select "Format", and from the format window change the file system to NTFS. Now you simply press start and your USB should format to an NTFS file system. From here you can copy your backed up files back to the drive, and you can put whatever files that were previously too large on the drive now.

It seems to be what it claims to be.

Honestly, I don't know that there's any cause to rave about this drive (after having it for only a month or so). It hasn't failed, so I can say that's it's done what it set out to do so far. I can say that it looks like a regular thumb drive attached to a threaded end cap that screws into a metal tube which has rubber washers for a waterproof seal I think... so yes, I think it may do it's function... the metal tube (vessel?) Is really hard and rubber seals for waterproofing has been done for many years... seems like a simple device, more durable than a loose flash drive in your drawer for sure.

Works great, but a little slow

Works perfectly in every way, but sometimes, it seems to take longer than I would expect to transfer data over.
