The company releases its rough-and-tumble Flash Survivor GT 8GB and the Flash Survivor 4GB.
Corsair launched its Flash Survivor line of rugged flash drives for those who put their gadgets through a torture test on a regular basis. The California-based company released two models, the higher-end Flash Survivor GT 8GB and the mid-range Flash Survivor 4GB. Both flash drives are encased in CNC-milled aluminum and feature rubber collars that allows them to resist shocks and drops. The Flash Survivors also have waterproof seals that allow them to be submerged in up to 200 meters of water without any data loss or damage, Corsair claims.
Besides the obvious difference in memory capacity, the Flash Survivor GT boasts faster transfer speeds at 34MB/sec compared to the Flash Survivor at 28MB/sec. According to Corsair, the GT can transfer 20 office files in less than a second, 60 pictures in about 17 seconds and a movie in about 82 seconds.
The Flash Survivor USB drives also feature 256-bit AES encryption and an application that lets users create passwords for additional security. The Corsair Flash Survivor GT 8GB and the Flash Survivor 4GB are available immediately and retail for $130 and $60, respectively.
