If connecting ssd using usb c via extenttion to older usb, MAKE SURE the arrows are facing, otherwise the connection will not be solid, and ssd will not show up. While us b c to us b c connects either way the same is not true for connecting it to an extension.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.First thing I did when I got the SSD was to plug it in to my Android USB C device. The phone automatically formatted the SSD into exfat format. I was able to very quickly upload 10 months of photos and videos eqhating to about 76 GBs data between my phone and my wife's phone of family memories. Then I use the USB 3.1 adapter for PC that was provided in the packaging and connect my pc to it. This adapter works fantastic and was very fast even with my computer having only a USB 3.0 connection. The drive is very fast. I was surprised at how fast the SSD was compared to my mechanical hard drive. This was definitely faster than the high speed micrI sd, even when connected directly into my computer. I was able to quickly compress videos and photos directly on the SSD. This was definitely worth the trip to the store pickup.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Make sure you are logged in as the administrator and that usb port is working correctly. Have you tried plugging in another device?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Try rebooting the computer with the drive plugged in. The same drive works on my cell laptop with an SSD drive on it. Very fast on a USB 3.0 port.
