I am certain that there is some tech that is rolling their eyes at me, but my experience is that I have never had corruption on a USB drive.
I have had them in the clothes washer & dryer repeatedly, have repeatedly dropped them, never used eject. The only time one of them stopped working is after it was bent in half and the shell shattered. Even then, I could get it to work well enough to transfer the data before giving up on it.
