Corsair Voyager:

Here’s one of the most exciting parts of the entire evaluation. Corsair’s Voyager is outlined with official company colors, green and black (with yellow for text) and the logo at the top. The entire exterior of the drive is surrounded by rubber, which makes the drive bouncy, hence the title. Due to the use of rubber, it is also one of the most durable drives in the market. The right end of the drive contains a blue LED light that lights/blinks during read/write operations. The only downside to the rubberized body is that the drive never looks clean, which can be seen from the image above. Although it’s not a significant downside, it is definitely something to keep in mind.

Like other manufacturers, Corsair has also included partitioning software that lets you choose between public and secure areas. You can choose to make the entire drive public or secure, depending upon your needs. After you have selected the amount of space you want to divide between the two options, the secure partition will require entering the password before it authorizes the access. This seems like an excellent feature and indeed it is, but with one twist. The password prompt will only come up on the computer with the security software installed. For example, you will not be able to access the secure partition on your office computer if the software is not installed on that particular machine. This makes having the functionality of making the entire drive secure rather pointless unless you have the CD with the software. To surpass this problem, we suggest that you copy the installation file onto the drive itself and install it on the machine you of wish to use your drive on.

Throughout our testing, the software was very stable and didn’t offer any hindrances to the drive, which is always delightfully welcomed.
