    Transfer speeds are consistently within the reported range. Two of the three drives we bought have been carried in backpacks several days a week for the past six months or so and they're still working well. So they seem durable enough, some portable drives haven't held up so well. My only real complaint is the packaging. The retail package is flimsy (card stock paper type material). Since BB ships pretty much everything in bubble mailers, regardless or fragility or value, the retail box will likely be crushed and rough looking when you receive it. We ordered three that arrived in three separate mailers, retail packing on all three was crushed and torn looking. So if you plan to give one as a gift and want it to actually look new, you better pick it up in store. The thin retail box doesn't hold up well to bubble mailer shipping. Other brands of external drives that have actual cardboard retail boxes survive BB's shipping much better.

    Super duper, I liked the software I downloaded to go with it too--after all, it is always nice to see the health of all your storage. I was getting sick of my thumb drives piling up and was able to fit all my digital clutter on one device. Yes, I keep a lot of clutter on old mechanical drives, but this is handy for the stuff the clutter you want to search through more frequently.

    I am using it between my laptop, desktop and my iPad Pro. It works seamlessly between the three devices. I have played movies with it on my iPad and there is no delay. I like that I can carry the device in my shirt pocket since it is small in size.

    I bought it originally to store pc games from Steam. It’s fast enough to run games with no issues. I replaced it with one with more storage. I use this now to store photos and documents. Very good product but for gaming if you have many games it’s probably better to get one with more storage space

    It's small and has been working for the first month. It comes with a USB-c connector with an adapter so you can plug it into older USB ports. Add to that a great price, it looks like a great deal.

    This is the first time I purchased and external SSD drive and I'm not disappointed. It's small and powerful and provides both USB-C and USB-A connection with adapter. Best Buy had a good sale and I picked one up.

    I wasn't even looking for an external portable drive, but when I happened to come across the Crucial X6 1TB SSD drive at the price advertised, I just had to take a chance. First thing that struck me when I opened the box is just how small this thing is; a little black square barely 2 1/2" square. The next thing that impressed me was how FAST it performs. I tested it by copying my entire project folder on my work laptop (HP Z3 Workstation) onto the Crucial drive as an informal benchmark. The folder I copied weighs in at 88 GB, and it transferred in less than 5 minutes. On that same laptop I have a 1 TB WD Ultra drive, and it takes almost 15 minutes to copy that same folder. For the price, speed and size, this drive is outstanding. Highly recommended!
