£300 for a device I will prob lose in a day, I don't think so.

Ha...it already sounds the slowest...I mean, 26mb? that's just silly. I'd rather they mess about with powered esata or something. come USB3, we'll quickly see 200mb+ per second at a fraction of £300...

And we're in a recession. Corsair needs to listen to the customers! And damn it, GET THAT CASE INTO UK!!! I love that cabling and MB cooler feature!

Looking at the pic, it looks a fair bit wider than the USB connector. I'd be interested in a photo showing a 2.5" SSD next to it.

At around £300, I'd be looking at getting an SSD, and then making sure all computers I was likely to use it on had esata. But then I don't use that many different computers, so I'm probably not the target market.

I presume Corsair is confident there actually is a target market...

Geez £300.
it makes SSD's seem cheap lol.

I have a 16GB usb pen and its more than enough for Me.

i think they are mainly for people who want to show off they have the biggest capasity usb pen..

Would it go any faster on a USB 3.0 bus? I thought if it is designed to USB2.0 specs, it wouldn't be able to take advantages of the next generation?
