Corsair ha lanciato il primo Flash Voyager USB avente una capacità di memorizzazione pari a 64GB di dati: in effetti, con una simile dotazione di spazio libero, il nuovo drive USB può contenere una vera e propria libreria di DVD e decine di migliaia di immagini digitali.

Il nuovo drive di Corsair si fa notare, in accordo al produttore, oltreché per la eccezionale dimensione delle informazioni che può immagazzinare, anche per la resistenza agli agenti atmosferici ed in particolare all'acqua (cfr. la seconda delle foto che seguono).

Un altra feature del drive è legata al fatto che esso rappresenta un disco avviabile o "bootable", e dunque in grado di ospitare un Sistema Operativo completo, utilizzabile nei casi di emergenza ovvero quando non parta l'OS installato sul disco fisso.

Corsair ha reso noto, infine, l'MSRP del componente, che è pari a $249.99, il cui lancio commerciale è avvenuto simultaneamente alla pubblicazione del seguente comunicato.
