First Toughts on the Port

Today we are taking a look at a device that should make it easy for you to backup information onto your flashdrive. Corsair has developed the Voyager Port which allows you to plug your flash drive into the port and with one push of a button if will backup all the info you have preconfigured for it to backup. Since the flash drives are getting bigger they are able to hold more data and they are way more durable than any harddrive on the market. This makes the flash drive a excellent choice for backing up data, but how does this device work and what types of speeds can we expect?
