Durability & Compatibility
Using the USB-IF's USBCV testing suite I tested the drive with both Chapter 9 and Mass Storage Class USB protocol compliance, both of which the Voyager GT 128GB passed with flying colors. Users should not experience any strange and abnormal behavior based on these results since the drive appears to conform fully to the USB-IF's USB specification. www.upan.cc
I followed up the USB protocol testing with some real-world reliability testing given that Corsair quote an operating temperature range of 0ºC to 70ºC and a shock resistance of 1500G's followed finally by some under-water immersion. U盘之家
To test the shock resistance, I literally bounced the drive off the wall a number of times with the rubber cap fitted. Fortunately the drive survived the brutal impact to continue on its path of temperature testing so I ran it through my thermal chamber from 0ºC to 50ºC for fear of the rubber casing melting. After approximately an hour in the temperature chamber I extracted the drive without any physical damage and in an operational condition.
Lastly I attempted to put some proof to the pudding behind Corsair's water-proof statement and submerged it in tap water for a whole night. After letting the drive dry off I then proceeded and tested it without any hick-ups in functionality. I can proudly say that this drive will most likely survive water submersion even over extended periods of time since the unit itself is fairly well-sealed especially with the cap fitted.
Performance
All benchmarking was performed on a Core 2 Duo E6600 processor built into a ASUS P5B Deluxe WiFi motherboard with a ZOTAC GeForce GTX 260 AMP2! Edition graphics card featuring a Intel-based USB host controller (ICH8 South Bridge) and the Flash Voyager GT 128GB flash drive directly connected to the host computer's USB port. The operating used was Microsoft's Windows Vista 64-bit including Service Pack 1. www.upan.cc
Starting off with HDTune, early results show read speeds reaching up to a maximum of 31.7MB/s, an access time of 0.6 ms and Burst Data Rate of 25.0MB/s. Using the Kingston Datatraveler 150 32GB as my closest competitor within arm's reach you can really start seeing the impact of Flash Voyager GT's dual-channel flash implementation across this gigantic drive. Kingston's own DT150 only scored a maximum read speed of 30.1MB/s, an enormous access time of 1.0 ms and a quite considerably slower Burst Data Rate of 22.7MB/s.
HDTune Benchmark: Flash Voyager GT 128GB on the left; Kingston Data Traveler 150
Utilizing SiSoft Sandra 2009 to get some synthetic results for performance I see the Corsair Voyager reaching a maximum performance of 31MB/s on read operations for 64MB files and a maximum write performance of 21.33MB/s for 256MB files making this a very attractive drive for users looking to archive large music, photo or video files. Write performance compared to the Kingston DataTraveler 150 32GB shows a near-double performance for all file sizes which should ensure you spend less time writing and more time reading data from the drive compared to any other USB flash drive thereby maximizing your productivity. If ever there was an argument for businesses to spend a lot of money on a flash drive, this is it.
