Combining the speed of USB 3.0 with the functionality of a cap-less USB drive, the Flash Voyager Slider X1 and Slider X2 share a sleek, glossy design that allows the USB cap to conveniently slide back into the drive housing.

What's more, at just 54mm in length the Slider X1 and Slider X2 are incredibly compact, allowing them to easily fit into a pocket or attach to a keychain via the included Key ring loop. Compatible with Windows, Mac OS X or Linux and fully USB 2.0 backwards compatible, the Slider X1 and Slider X2 offer affordable and stylish USB storage, whatever your capacity or performance needs. The drives are backed by a five year warranty.

You're right .. it's way better when drives have a connector that is more expensive and doesn't benefit them at all . . These thumb drives aren't maxing the speed of 3.0, 3.1 would be a waste.

Not to mention the Bad USB Drives from Corsair.

I got my third Flash Voyager USB 3.0 and the thing refuses to work on USB 3.0.

And no, it's not my PC. As my Western Digital USB 3.0 HDD works flawless on USB 3.0.
