Do you need a Hummer to pick up a quart of milk at your suburban grocer? Do you need a USB thumb drive that can withstand being run over by an 8000 lbs. forklift and can be submerged 200 meters under water to bring your PowerPoint presentation to work? The folks at Corsair think you might.
Memory maker Corsair unveiled its "extremely rugged" line of USB 2.0 flash drives called Flash Survivor. The drives are constructed from milled aluminum (as found in aircraft part production) and designed for geeks with a "Bring It On" attitude, Corsair says.
Flash Survivor GT in Mud2.gifThe Corsair Flash Survivor GT 8GB model runs $130 and Flash Survivor 4GB model runs $60. For non-badass geeks like myself, as long as the Survivor drive makes it through the washer and drier in one piece I'm sold at 8GB for $130.
