As with nearly all of Corsairs USB Flash drives

As with nearly all of Corsairs USB Flash drives, they claim the rubber housing capable of protecting against water via a special sealed construction.

What would really have been useful for a drive of this caliber is an Ingress Rating to put some proof behind the claim since nearly all flash drives are protected against water via hermetically sealed components which will keep on working once the electronic components are dried out.

Unfortunately the addition of ratings and certifications on this level costs the manufacturer more money that just isn't justifiable when the average consumer isn't willing to pay even more on top of the already extortionate pricing.

One improvement I would wish for, considering the amazing high price, is a integrated on-board capacity indicator similar to the Lexar JumpDrive Mercury Flash Drive to show how much space is already being used on the drive prior to actually attaching the drive to a USB port.

The drive comes preformatted with a FAT32 file allocation table for maximum compatibility on different operating systems ranging from Linux to Windows and a total of 130,796,355,584 bytes (121 GB) free space available to the user with only a minor amount of space reserved for a PDF detailing the amazing performance looming ahead for my benchmark testing.
