Shouldn't the CMFVYGTX3C-128GB model offer a USB 3.1 port? Corsair itself says: https://www.corsair.com/ca/en/Categories/Products/Storage/USB-Drives/flash-voyager-gtx-3-1-config/p/CMFVYGTX3C-128GB
Or is it just the product number that is wrong here?

Answer

I know you can't help the stupid marketing ideas of the USB Implementers Forum, but it would make sense to make it clear when specifying USB 3.1, if the device is still only capable of "Gen 1" (i.e. the speed of what used to be known as USB 3.0).
Golem has a good overview of the different designations in this article:

Next thing you know, the sticks will be sold as USB 3.2 Gen 1. Same product, new packaging :-)

Thank you for reporting this. I have passed it on for review and this will be adjusted if necessary. :)
