00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:12,160
This is my original Corsair Survivor Drive. It's pretty good. It served me

2
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,440
well for 3 years. However, there's a new kit on the block. The Survivor Stealth

3
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:20,160
takes everything that was good about the original Survivor and kicks it up a

4
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:24,320
notch. The anodized aluminum housing looks stunning in a militarystyle matte

5
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:28,960
black, and the molded shot collars have been significantly thickened for better

6
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:33,200
durability. The key ring has also been upgraded to make it less likely to wear

7
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:39,200
out over time. Once we open up the drive, we find the USB3 super speed

8
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:41,280
interface, an activity LED, and the EPDM

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:45,920
seal that makes this drive waterproof to up to 200 m

10
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:51,840
deep. Overall, the housing is incredibly rugged and can handle up to 400 gs of

11
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:57,180
impact. Impact ratings are fascinating, but unless you actually test

12
00:00:53,960 --> 00:01:00,289
them, they're totally meaningless.

13
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:16,240
impact tests are great, but we also wanted to evaluate just how waterproof

14
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:19,640
the Survivor Stealth is. The answer, very waterproof.

15
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:27,040
And no matter what your drive has been through, see this is the one we did our

16
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:29,200
throwing tests on, it is still ideal for

17
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:33,920
covert ops where you don't want to get recognized. So you got to get in and out

18
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:36,479
in a hurry. So we're using the USB 3

19
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:42,960
transfer speeds in order to copy a 1 gig file of what you can see is clearly

20
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:46,399
secret stuff off of a laptop. Now the

21
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:48,560
drive will work in USB 2 mode. However,

22
00:01:46,399 --> 00:01:53,040
it will just copy slower. So, it's fully backwards compatible. You just won't get

23
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:57,880
the benefit of super speed USB 3. So, you can see we're copying at over 50

24
00:01:54,399 --> 00:02:00,399
megabytes per second. And we are out of

25
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:04,240
here. This has been another Techquickie on the Corsair Survivor Stealth. I'm

26
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:06,640
Lionus and I hope to see you guys next time.
