Corsair’s Flash Voyager GT: World’s Fastest 128GB USB Flash Drive

Corsair, who seem to spend all their time finding speed records and then breaking them, announced their Flash Voyager GT USB flash drive at the droolworthy 128GB capacity. Even better, the speeds totally don’t suck: 32MB/s and 25.6MB/s read/write, respectively.

The first 128GB USB flash drive we say, the Kingston Datatraveler 200, was mostly a proof of concept, with relatively slow read/write speeds of 20/10MB/s. It was also prohibitively expensive at nearly $US550. Corsair’s drive has the speed to be really enviable, and it comes in even cheaper than the Kingston drive. Note, however, that we didn’t say it’s affordable, at all—Newegg is selling it for $US400. Still, it’s pretty great to be able to carry around even a massive music collection in the change pocket of your jeans. [Corsair]

    Such a pity they contuinue to use that crappy rubber casing..
    The electronics might be great, but the the Rubber casing is useless at protecting them from everyday occurrences.
    The USB connector on my 4Gb Flash Voyager GT snapped off after only 8 months of being on my keyring.. Compare that to my 512Mb Cruzer Titanium (from back when 512Mb was enormous!) which is still going strong (although no longer has a place in my pocket)!
