These are the best USB flash drives I have ever owned and I used to own an IT company so have bought hundreds over the years. They are very strong and robust. I have use mine on a daily basis to install software and backup files from customer PCs and laptops temporarily. It stays in my pocket most of the time and I don't like to go to work without it. The design is all metal and rubber and is built for all environments. I have personally dropped mine, run over it (intentionally to test it lol) and dropped it in water and it has survived all. I wouldn't make a habit of doing these things and not sure if the manufacturer guarantees it will survive these kind of tests but survive it has and is still going strong.

Do you care about your data? are you paranoid that one day your flash drive would just stop working (happened to me a few times now)?. Well I have very painstakingly collected tons of research data for my thesis and I don't want to one day discover that I have lost everything just because a stupid flash drive decided to give up the ghost. I have been using this device for a year now and it always brings out the 'oohs' and 'aaahs' in people when I pull it out of my bag. It looks equally impressive sticking out of a desktop computer - like some kind of next-gen flash drive thingy... you know what I mean. But keep in mind if you've got a macbook pro (like me)

you will not kill this the keychain loop is tough aluminum and will honestly break the key ring ir resides on before the loop gives out the drive inside is attatched to the key loop side so in the event the cover comes off the drive is staying put on the casing it has a gasket seal that makes it near impossible to work its way loose infact i often have to apply a little force to unscrew when i want to get inside but nothing too tough ive had mine for over 4 years now (2012) and the only thing that broke was one of the little rubber bumpers fell off which are only there for looks ant to stop it making a clanging sound when it knocks against stufftake my advice buy the biggest model you can

I used to own the old version and loved it, I had no problem buying another one based on my experience of the old one. The new one is clearly improved, everything about it seems better bar the placement of the keyring holder. I should have paid more attention to the reviews because it was brought up there. The keyring attaches directly to the usb stick itself rather than just the case. It means I can't put it on my keys without pulling the USB socket out of the PC whenever I use it. When it's not on my keys I can easily forget to bring it with me. Despite the usb stick being brilliant in every other way, this one thing completely ruins it for my needs.

I bought this drive as a spare/backup drive for my important documents.My original survivor drive has stood the test of time and still performs perfectly after a couple of years of use and abuse and I expect this new one will perform just as well.As you can see from the picture my old drive has seen better days but in my industry a standard plastic usb drive would have failed long before.It is perfect for storing important documents on as the device is water/dust proof and can survive being crushed, I store mine in a fireproof safe for an extra level of protection.

I work in IT and have used numerous USB sticks. Lets be honest they all perform the same function, however the quality varies tremendously and paying more doesn't mean higher quality. I have used a 32GB USB3 version of this stick for the last 5 years and it failed on me last week. I have purchased this 64GB in replacement and the quality is still the same. This the best USB stick I have used and I have broken and lost tons over the years. This stays on my car keys and gets used daily; if you want a tough waterproof usb stick than can take a battering this is the one.

Not the fastest USB storage on the market, nor the best value. Also important to bear in mind that it is quite bulky. In spite of these issues, I do own two of these drives and I'm delighted with them. Working as an IT technician I always have a handful of cheap and light USB drives lying around for general files transfers and backups. But for the software I use to diagnose and solve problems, I make use of these. They're as tough and reliable as they come, whether they're being banged around in a pocket or a bag. They also look the part.

As expected, Corsair has done a great job with the product. It's very rugged, and it's going on my keys, which go through a lot of abuse.My only issue is the speed of the drive, for the physical size of the drive, I was expecting a much faster transfer speed to what I was getting, my SanDisk Extreme 64 GB USB Flash Drive USB 3.0 up to 245 MB/s is a similar physical dimension and is much faster.Test:Corsair Survivor Stealth v2 32GB formatted to ExFat.MacBook Pro - Intel i5 at 2.5GHz, 10GB DDR3 Ram, Seagate 480GB SSD.

I always carry a USB stick on my keys. Always have. However I was going through them so quickly it was getting a bit ridiculous. Whatever brand I tried I managed to kill it one way or another.But then I found this item. I have now had this stick for 8 months and it has seen everything from muddy fields and deep water, to dusty, desert-like festival sites and blistering heat. Nothing has phased this product and it is still going strong!Well worth the small investment! I've not lost any data/backups since!

Great price for two heavy duty memory sticks! Bought for DJIng, fat 32 formatted which means compatible with pioneer cdj's. I only play wav files that are around 50-75mb, 32gb is enough to store 700 + tunes. Solid connection, sturdy sticks, indestructible case. Great product, I have gone through so many flimsy standard usb's. Ultra fast transfer through USB 3.0 onto the flash drive, this makes no difference on the cdj's though as they are only USB 2.0, still tested and ultra reliable when dj'ing!

This is by far the best USB stick that i have ever got i always seem to get plastic USB's and they end up braking after a few mounts but i can alredy tell after having this one for a few days its going to be solid and last me much much longer then my others as well as being fully metal it is water proof and shock proof to make sure all my data that i keep on my usb such as college work and documents are going be safe no matter what awesome USB would recommend 100%

I bought this because I accidentally broke my old memory stick. So far this has been around my entire county, has been on a bicycle in rain and shine and the only sign of wear is a faded sticker. Is perfectly working even after some real downpours and being hit by a chair by mistake, repeatedly.I would recommend this to anyone who needs a tougher alternative that is reliable and incredibly quick when used correctly with a USB 3.0 port

This is one tough USB stick.It came as described with Read/Write speeds of around 100 MB/sBefore using it as my primary stick, I tested its endurance. Firstly, I threw it against a wall/floor, it was fine. Secondly, I placed it in freezing water for 10 minutes, it survived that and lastly I placed it in boiling water for 10 minutes. Needless to say, it survived that as well.Very high quality, a great product.

I have to say this is no word of a lie. I have only been able to test it’s ability of it being waterproof in a mug of water, of which to no surprise it survived (maybe there’s a larger difference than I thought between 200M and 1 mug). Then I decided to test it’s strength, and I had the perfect idea consisting of the USB and an Audi A3. I am happy to say it survived without even a scratch.

The main reason to get this Corsair Flash Survivor is that I already have one...5 years old....and it is still going strong, am a little paranoid about loosing all my stuff on it, use it for keeping work and take it back and forth when I have to do work at home.The exterior quality feels a little more flimsy than the original, but these seem very reliable, which is the main thing
