High capacity storage in a tiny package
This external drive is remarkably tiny for the 2 TB it holds! It will easily fit into even the smallest pocket of a laptop sleeve (or bag). I reformatted the drive from the exFAT it comes with to NTFS, and then performed some speed tests. I connected it to a fast USB-C port on my computer and obtained a speed of ~1000MB/s, consistent with what most others have found. This is fine for my needs. I use this drive to make backups of my laptop. I highly recommend this drive!

Pro-grade speed in a tiny, rugged package
I added the Crucial X10 Pro to my kit for offloading files from my Sony A7C II, and it’s a beast. The 2,100MB/s read speeds are incredibly fast, making it possible to edit 4K video directly off the drive without any lag on my MacBook or iPad Air M3. It’s surprisingly small—about the size of a credit card—and the aluminum build feels very premium. I also appreciate the IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, which is great for peace of mind when I'm out doing street photography. If you’re a creator who needs speed and portability, this is easily one of the best drives on the market.
