Placoboy Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Are you aware of problems of USB connectivity issues between your Voyager product and the Asus P4P800 motherboard. I have a 512 stick which works fine although it needs a few seconds to show up in the explorer and my new 2 Gb has erratic behaviour: file transfers stop in the middle, sometimes it is not recognized ... it only happen with the Voyager (the 2 Gb has already been replaced once!) The bios is not the very latest but recent enough and Asus does not mention USB issues ... What are your recommendations?
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 21, 2006 Corsair Employee Posted September 21, 2006 How many USB devices do you have connected? And what type of other devices are they?
Placoboy Posted September 21, 2006 Author Posted September 21, 2006 USB 1.1 on a PCI card : 2 or 3 occupied USB 2.0 : 4 slots busy at the back: 1 keyboard, 1 mouse, 1 to the screen which then divides into 2 more, and 1 slot for the voyager either directly (not convenient) or with a USB extension cord. tested voyager on both screen slot and at the back, same issue. No issue with the 512 Any ideas? You think about power issues ?
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 21, 2006 Corsair Employee Posted September 21, 2006 Please try the Flash Voyager plugged directly in to the MB slots on the I/O pannel with out the extension cord.
Placoboy Posted September 23, 2006 Author Posted September 23, 2006 Ok I did with both 512 and 2 Gb and here is the benchmark :confused: :confused: 512 seems ok (although not as good as ref) http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/5281/screenshot046md4.th.jpg but the 2 Gb ... :eek: http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/9195/screenshot047tn9.th.jpg Should I run more tests? Could my 2 Gbs be in a bad serie? I can still return it to the store but I am afraid it may be wrong again!! Thanks for your advice! :): ---edit--- did the same test on a Dell Latitude .. same result ---edit2--- Sorry but couldnt wait so I keep my 512 but I have returned my 2 Gb for another brand. Still interested if you have a solution because the Voyager is the best value.
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 26, 2006 Corsair Employee Posted September 26, 2006 Please run Hard Drive Bench on your flash drive and see if its less that 12 Mb's on a 100 MB file!
Placoboy Posted September 26, 2006 Author Posted September 26, 2006 Cant run the test, the Voyager is not seen as a HD! :(: can you be more specific? recommend some utility for the benchmrk? thanks!
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted September 27, 2006 Corsair Employee Posted September 27, 2006 There are many programs and HD Bench is made for HDD's yes but you should be able to select the removable drive and select the drive letter assigned. You can also try HD Tach!
Placoboy Posted September 29, 2006 Author Posted September 29, 2006 Ran HDTach on my 512 Mb Corsair .. did run fine (avg of 18 Mbs) but I dont own the faulty 2 Gb for testing, as I said I had to return it :( and couldnt take a chance of a 3rd one not working properly. Anyway thanks for your advice :):
