"Losing hair over data back-ups? Then Corsair may have a solution for you, and it doesn't involve a wig!"

Find out how the Corsair Flash Voyager Port got along here.

Very nice product and very nice review..

Thing is I'd need a pretty hefty memory stick to be able to back up enough data.

Nice review, link to the 32GB drive is broken

As bungral said, its not big enough, unless you used it for major backups only...

Its not broken, ebuyer have just run out of stock It would seem.

If It doesnt come back in stock in the next few days then Ill add a different link..

32/64gb may not seem enough, but actually, all my vital data was only a fraction of what I thought it would be.

Just buy a WD passport 160gb for £45 and use that, doesnt have to be the usb stick.

Is that powered just through the USB? If you have to start faffing around with power bricks it kind of loses the appeal of the Port...

Yep, WD Passports go up through 500GB and are USB powered:

i'm thinking of getting one for myself now

Looks amazing

I already own a Corsair Voyager but I think ill b sticking to my WD passport for the time being

One thing I hate about the Passport is that it is so f00king expensive. Well for me anyways.

Looks and sounds great. One question though is does the port/software allow for backup of the USB stick to your PC? as I would find that more useful backing up my PC to the USB Stick.

I dont fully understand you there, sorry

Sorry for not making my self clear. I currently keep alot of my documents and files on my USB stick as I work between 4 pc's at different locations. As such every so often I take a copy of my usb stick as save it to my PC. Can this device do this for at a press of a button?

You can't link it to the button from what I can see, but it's quite simple to restore from the USB drive, if that is what you mean?

 

[Tomcat31]

Thanks for that, it sounds like this device will be no good for what i need to do, as i want a quicker way to take a backup of my usb stick rather than use the stick as a backup drive.
