If you're into video or audio editing then avoid this product. It's slow and does not have the speed or man power to done with Final Cut or Logic Studio. It's has a low RPM and you need to trick the drive to turn it on. Meaning you have to plug in the adapter then the firewire for it to work properly in that specific or order.

Corsair Flash Voyager 64 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive CMFUSBHC-64GB This instant


I received the 64GB flash drive two days ago, and I am returning it today. It has given me problems right from the start. I was able to put about 15GB of data on the drive, but it seemed very sluggish when copying the data and playing back small video files. I have had many small and large size flash drives, but none has given me any problems like the Corsair flash drive has.
