Customer Ratings & Reviews

Received item faster than i tought as it was for a gift

Amazing product, first time trying crucial now ill never look back.

The transfer rate is very fast and easy to carry around.

Awesome write speeds. Works as expected. Using this product to store my music for my DJ hobby.

Works great. My only grievance is that it ONLY comes with a C to C USB cable so if you don't have a USB c port you will need to buy a sperate C to A adapter. Aside from that love it

Decent price of hardware. Works for my use case. Very light but good build quality at the same time. Better pricing than other similar offerings.

Pretty easy to setup. It’s everything I expected to free my phone of over 10,000 photos and files that were extremely important! But it

I bought two Crucials. A 1TB that is working absolutely flawlessly and this 2TB. This 2TB Crucial was working fine until for no explainable reason it lost its ability to display any type of capacity information in "This PC" on Win11. I double-checked via other Win tools, same result. I reformatted the drive at that point, restored my data from backup, and it did the same thing again about 10m after the restore completed. I have several copies of this data on various external disks; all of those disks are fine. Pretty disappointed and will have to think twice now about buying any Crucial products. Kudos to Best Buy though. They took this back without question and issued an immediate refund.

Been testing it for the 15 Pro Max and it’s been working great. It’s nice and small. For PC and Mac, it’s not the fastest but it works as intended.

Bought this drive to store my Photos library since my new Macbook did not have a large amount of storage. I moved my library to this drive, immediately had issues with this drive. After my first transfer of about 600GB of personal files, ensure everything was settled with my library, updated, etc. Within the first day, the drive was having issues mounting which led me to first attempt a First-Aid which did not help followed by a reformatting of the drive thinking that may solve the problem (note that I used APFS formatting every time). After reformatting, transferred my photo library once again and within a day, the drive would not mount at all. I tried everything I could to no avail, the drive would simply not mount, it wouldn't show on the Disk Utility, tried everything I could find online but it wouldn't show up either on my Mac or on my PC. I've never had issues with Crucial before but after reading many many posts online about this mounting issue, I decided to purchase a Samsung T7 instead which had sound reviews for Mac users (specially for its reliability).

I like the fact that it’s compact and extremely fast transferring files. Oh, and the price is right as well.

Excellent quality, it works very well. I really like how discreet it is.

This is good stuff.. I can use this as storage for my music for my car..

It won’t turn on. I plugged the device on to multiple computers and none of them are recognizing the device. Now it’s past the return date.

Use this for ssd backup of my system. If one will not work, i get two :)

best value for backing up data. Easy to set up and use.

Failed on me and lost all my projects. Crucial doesn’t have real MacBook support

Good speed but crashes if used in exFat format between windows and Mac OS simultaneously

I got an item that is damaged, will be returning it.
