It used to be the fastest, but the RMA rate was also one of the highest. That's why Corsair discontinued the earlier versions (2GB, 4GB).

im using sandisk cruzer titanium. Quite fast.. from magazines i have been reading, imation atom is the best. Tiny as an atom, cheap as chips but rivaling even the much more expensive ones..oh just to add, for higher capacity than 8g, hi speed is a must or it will take forever to write/read... n trust me, its worth it having hi speed flash drive. laugh.gif although im happy wimmy titanium cruzer, im hunting for 16Gb imation Atom which of course, is not available.

oh i mean, its not available in 16Gb.It is available in 8Gb instead, which is a steal at Rm70 tho.. anyway, price could change as im not sure of latest price. Try searching for reviews on Atom particularly Computershopper. Its similar in size to super talent pico drives, only faster.

dude thats cruzer enterprise, not cruzer titanium or cruzer titanium plus. Titanium is slower than Contour... but like i said, im quite happy with my Titanium read/write speed as compared to normal sandisk cruzer. smart slide-out usb made of metal & doesnt look too shabby either. Some flash drive look so bling bling that you will be embarrassed to be seen with it. Not sandisk cruzer tho.

Titanium is almost bomb proof but its not. However, im looking for another alternative flash drive, talented but tiny drive as back-up, hence had my eyes on atom. Too bad they didnt have 16Gb.

BTW, i'd like to add, relatively speaking, Corsair Voyager is quite fast & very durable but the rubbery & fat encasement attracts dusts & render adjacent usb port useless, due to its sheer dimension.

Good luck hunting to all of yous.

That's your main problem as I think your thumbdrive is probably formatted with the FAT32 / FAT16 file system. Have it formatted with NTFS and it will support single file with sizes of 4gb and up. http://www.ntfs.com/ntfs_vs_fat.htm
