    I hope it doesn't use the shitty keychain connector the other flash voyagers use. The neoprene ones always tear on me, and this thing you don't want to lose. #corsairflashvoyagerusb128gb

    I want a USB drive that is split up and has a physical switch that toggles between the volumes, and lets you hot-swap between them when in an OS.

    I've got a bunch of bootable USB images that don't co-exist well on the same drive, but I don't want to have to carry around a bunch of separate drives. I have considered micro/mini/SDHC cards and a compact USB adapter, but it would be a little too expensive...

    I've seen old MemorySticks that were split up between two physically separate memory chips, that used a toggle to switch between the two, why can't someone do this with a USB drive?

    I would love one that was 8x4 = 32GB total. Four 8GB images on a single device would rock!

    And I would be willing to pay a decent premium over a drive with similar size/speed.

    Somebody do it, dammit! #corsairflashvoyagerusb128gb

    @IN THE FACE!: You know, you can do the exact same thing by creating separate partitions, and you won't even need the damned switch, either.

    What I do want to see is Flash drives with large storage, but also with an expansion slot that accept SD cards for additional storage. #corsairflashvoyagerusb128gb

    The size isn't really a big deal. Fitting in your pocket, as you said, is really the only big deal. If it's sitting docked in your USB drive, who cares if it's an extra inch wide/long?

    Also, I think it's a good thing that you did the testing with all your other apps open -- the consumer using this thing is going to be transferring things to/from it, so it's not like they're going to have all their apps closed, anyway. Keepin' those apps open makes it a more realistic test. #corsairflashvoyagerusb128gb

    Cry over losing it? Heh... I would cry if I lost that fancy cap. God knows what I would do if I lost the whole shebang. Of course, after that, I would probably find the cap for it. #corsairflashvoyagerusb128gb

    I think you'd have to make it smaller. Vinyl doesn't travel well. Perhaps if we could as a collective develop some other method of transporting recorded music. Perhaps something light that could be rolled up and played off a spool of some sort.

    @weylin: I use an electrochemical storage device with a MASSIVELY parallel access-rate and potentially limitless storage space.

    To be fair, though, teh data... It's mostly lolcatz.

    In reply to Corsair's New Extreme SSD Line Is Blazingly Fast
    sure, reporting blistering sequential read and write speeds gets the girls all wet, but in real world usage, random read/write is everything. Nobody's gotten close to Intel's X25 yet, despite how (by gadget terms) ancient that drive is.

    @mikeborisov: That's not completely accurate. While the X25 drives cannot be touched in random write terms, other drives have already surpassed them (substantially) in random reads -- including one of Corsair's own.

    Apparently, when you edit a comment, you can no longer embed some links.

    OK, so in looking at the site, this will be for their "Dominator" RAM series, which seems to come in three stick sets, so I will say this handles three sticks, and if you have 6, you will need to and probably just wire them in series.

    I also bought one of those "super small" USB sticks from Sony, the one that is about the size of a dime? The security guard where I work made a stink over me bring my Cruzer in so I bought a sony one. It is so small it fits inside of my badge holder. I showed him!
