    We’ve purchased 2 of these so far, they are pretty good with fast writes on USB-C computers – speeds on USB-A 3.1 (rectangle plug) computers are slower, as to be expected. The one thing I found is that you *must* use the OEM manufacturer-included cable with an intermediate USB-C to USB-A adapter if using with USB-A computers. If you try using a 3rd party USB-C to USB-A cable, the drive won’t mount (at least on Macs). That said, we find the drives to work & perform well.

    I needed a small portable drive to backup my phone. This drive everything I needed it to at a good speed. I liked it so much, I referred it to one of my customers who was looking for extra storage in lieu of a cloud based service, which they later thanked me for that advice.

    Small and fast, but not ideal for game storage

    This Crucial external SSD is impressively small and very fast, making it great for quick file transfers and portability. It easily connects to a wide range of devices, and I had no trouble using it with my PC, phone, and console. The build quality feels solid, and the water and drop resistance adds peace of mind for travel. While it performs well overall, it’s not the best value if you’re buying it specifically to store PC games or retro game libraries. Game launch times were a bit inconsistent compared to my internal drives. It works, but it’s not as smooth or responsive as I expected for gaming use. For creators or casual file storage, it’s a solid option, but gamers might want to look elsewhere for the price. Still, the compact size and speed make it a convenient everyday drive.

    Works well, but a longer cable would be nice. The included cable leaves the unit dangling from the USB port.

    It works very well, and using it enabled me (actually the Geek Squad) to get some info off my old Passport, which had evidently crashed. I love that it’s so compact too.
