This device is supposed to be shock proof, so I thought I might give it a try.

Can you test the write and create file speed, please?

[elec999]

Very nice test. I am just curious when accessing the secure of the drive on another computer, do you need the kingston software to be installed.
Thanks

Nice review! :clap: Especially the extra mile on the Corsair part!

There are faster ones out there but I use the Corsair myself for its reliable purpose.

Sweet review, I thought the stress test was extra mile, well atleast extra 50 some feet..

[Zardokk]

I suddenly feel like "stress testing" my A-Data 1GB flash drive...but I supposed I'd better not; I need it for school. Oh well, I can still do some bandwidth tests and whatnot...

[irev210]

i am all about the jump drive lightning. once you go to a fast flash the rest are slow :(

[AsAsIn8eR]

where can I get the Corsair soft?I have a corsair stick but it's the plastic one and it didn't come with a cd and I would like to make it bootable.

[an0nym0us]

man you don't know how many times i've washed my flash drives and just let them dry out and work just fine.
