This is my original Corsair Survivor Drive. It's pretty good. It served me

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:15.440
well for 3 years. However, there's a new kit on the block. The Survivor Stealth

00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:20.160
takes everything that was good about the original Survivor and kicks it up a

00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:24.320
notch. The anodized aluminum housing looks stunning in a militarystyle matte

00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:28.960
black, and the molded shot collars have been significantly thickened for better

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:33.200
durability. The key ring has also been upgraded to make it less likely to wear

00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:39.200
out over time. Once we open up the drive, we find the USB3 super speed

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:41.280
interface, an activity LED, and the EPDM

00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:45.920
seal that makes this drive waterproof to up to 200 m

00:00:43.160 --> 00:00:51.840
deep. Overall, the housing is incredibly rugged and can handle up to 400 gs of

00:00:49.160 --> 00:00:57.180
impact. Impact ratings are fascinating, but unless you actually test

00:00:53.960 --> 00:01:00.289
them, they're totally meaningless.

00:01:09.600 --> 00:01:16.240
impact tests are great, but we also wanted to evaluate just how waterproof

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:19.640
the Survivor Stealth is. The answer, very waterproof.

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

00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:29.200
throwing tests on, it is still ideal for

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

00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:36.479
in a hurry. So we're using the USB 3

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

00:01:39.759 --> 00:01:46.399
secret stuff off of a laptop. Now the

00:01:42.960 --> 00:01:48.560
drive will work in USB 2 mode. However,

00:01:46.399 --> 00:01:53.040
it will just copy slower. So, it's fully backwards compatible. You just won't get

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

00:01:54.399 --> 00:02:00.399
megabytes per second. And we are out of

00:01:57.880 --> 00:02:04.240
here. This has been another Techquickie on the Corsair Survivor Stealth. I'm

00:02:02.399 --> 00:02:06.640
Lionus and I hope to see you guys next time.
