The Flash Survivor laughs at normal hazards such as water and shock, thanks to its CNC-milled aluminum case. Features include being water resistant up to 200 meters, vibration proof due to the rubber molded collar shielding, and is pre-loaded with a 256-bit AES encryption security application. The Flash Survivor delivers a sustained read/write performance of 34MB/s and 28MB/s respectively, which is nearly 500% faster than standard USB flash drives! The 4GB and 8GB models retail for $59.99 and $129.99 respectively.
