Corsair Introduces Survivor Rugged Flash Drive
We’ve seen rugged flash drives before, we’ve seen indestructible flash drives before, but to throw a flash drive in mud really drives home the point of a rugged flash drive.
Corsair introduces their latest USB entry, the Survivor, design for those with a very active lifestyle.
Apparently there is a world of extreme sports going on where flash memory is apart of the ensemble.
None-the-less;
“Corsair has built the Flash Survivor family specifically for customers with a “Bring It On” attitude, someone who doesn’t want to worry if his/her equipment can stand up to the active lifestyle they lead,”
A couple bullet points about the durability include:
- Shock proof – triple point protection
- Encased in CNC carved aluminum
- Rubber collar shielding
- Two end caps to re-enforce hollow tub and prevents collapsing when abused.
Available in 4GB and 8GB sizes for $130 and $60 respectively.
We’ve requested a sample for 3rd party real-world testing, we’ll get back to you with results.
