Software Group (PSG) announced that Corsair’s Voyager
Air, a portable, wireless drive, is embedded with Paragon’s universal file
system driver (UFSD) technology.
Paragon’s drivers enable cross-platform read/write access to various file
systems connected to the Voyager Air. Corsair’s drive was announced at their
launch event at CES 2013.
Paragon’s cross-platform driver technology
makes the Voyager Air compatible with all devices and PCs, regardless of the OSs. The portable Voyager Air is the an all-in-one mobile,
wireless, home network drive. It can be used as a home NAS via its GbE
connection or as a portable hard drive (USB 3.0) or a wireless hub (Wi-Fi).
Voyager Air streams movies and music via Wi-Fi to multiple client devices
including PCs, Macs, and Android and iOS devices.
"Paragon’s
driver technology was selected over its competition because of its exceptional
transfer rate performance," said Thi La, SVP and GM of Memory and
Enthusiast Component Products at Corsair. "By embedding Paragon’s drivers into our solution, Voyager Air is
best-in-class with regards to file/data transfer speeds; especially when it is
directly attached via USB 3.0."
Voyager Air supports multiple partitions
and comes preformatted with the NTFS file system with which Paragon’s driver is
included to enable Mac users to write to the NTFS drive. Users may
reformat the drive with an HFS+ file system, if needed.
"We
are very excited to partner with Corsair on their innovative Voyager Air
project," said Tom Fedro, president of Paragon Software. "As we see an increase in demand for
multimedia mobile devices to share data and connect with each other, the demand
for the underlying driver technology for NTFS, HFS+, exFAT and other file
system is critical to maintaining a seamless environment for the consumer."
