Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 20, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 20, 2008 That is about right for the current drives, older drives use SLC based technology but were limited in size. And all newer Flash Drives are using MLC based technology but will support higher density memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you now saying that both the Voyager AND the Voyager GT are using MLC based technology????? ...if so, what are we getting for the "GT" price premium????????

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 22, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 22, 2008 The GT line of drives 2,4, and 8 Gig have all been discontinued but were all SLC based. The drives in question 2 Gig and an 8 Gig FV will not have the same performance and all drives made no are MLC based. However, the 2 Gig drive he has may be a bit older and made with SLC technology.

USBuntu Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hi, Did I understand correctly that my recently purchased Survivor GT 8GB was not worth of my money spent on it? It is not near as fast as I expected. It gives me 23 MB/s average read speed. If I knew that it will give me such a low speed I would have rather bought non GT version. I talked to TechSupport and they suggested to exchange it for new but, if I understood you correctly, it is not going to help because new Survivors are MLC based and are not as fast as they used to be. Why was not it reflected in the product description? Should I or should I not bother with an exchange? Can I get higher capascty unit nonGT series instead?

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 26, 2008 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 26, 2008 No that is not what was said. The performance of our 2,4 and 8 gig GT Drives has not changed we just do not sell them any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USBuntu Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hello, So would you say that average read speed of 23 MB/s for Survivor GT 8GB in HD Tach on P4 3.2 GHz is normal? Because I was expecting above 30 MB/s. How come that you do not offer GT series anymore? Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'd imagine it's because they're coming out with 16 GB GTs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram Guy, I think you missed/avoided his question...are the new larger GT's also going to be using the slower MLC chips?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Ram Guy, I think you missed/avoided his question...are the new larger GT's also going to be using the slower MLC chips??He already answered this IIRC: all drives made no are MLC based. * I think that's NOW, not NO.
