Digital camera reviews of Corsair Flash Voyager 64 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive CMFUSBHC-64GB
Digital camera Review: good size, ok speed
Summary: 4 Stars
I love the 64GB and if this was my first flash drive it would be perfect but having owned a 16GB flash voyager i find its speed to be a bit slow. If i could do it again i would get the Patriot Xporter Magnum 64GB.Digital camera Review: great service
Summary: 5 Stars
great seller speed delivery, I don't even know when I received the item but it was camera Review: satisfiedSummary: 4 Stars With a 64GB capacity in early 2009, I knew I was getting an MLC flash device, and my performance expectations were conceived accordingly. Sure, you can get much faster SLC flash drives, at a fraction the capacity and with much lower space/$. I wrote about 45GB to mine, at an average rate of something like 10MB/s on a MacBook Pro, which was entirely reasonable. I suspect that many of those who complain of the write speed are comparing apples to oranges, or in this case, a large MLC device to a small SLC device. I also suspect that some have the mental idea that a flash drive should take N seconds/minutes to fill, without regard to the capacity difference. Perhaps there are applications for USB flash drives that require massive speed, but I'm currently not aware of any. Heck, if one needs any real speed by today's standards, the bottleneck of the USB interface alone disqualifies any such unit and a (smaller, SLC) class 6 SDHC/CF card with a FireWire reader is a much better option.
