Customer Ratings & Reviews

Still testing the drive. It has been about 3 months. So far no problems. I like this product, however, G-Technology products are sometimes a problem which is why I am skeptical. What I like: - Design - Performance (read and write) - Thermal dynamics - Size - Weight - Price. Good value for price per GB. What I don't like: - The USB-C cable is way too short In all, I recommend this drive. I will update my review if I run into any problems. I say all of this from the perspective of an IT person.

I was looking for a new solid state external hard drive to gain the reliability of no moving parts to fail. I get tired of migrating data to a new drive every so often in anticipation of impending failure due to the moving parts that can eventually fail. I have also been migrating away from our desk top computer to a laptop and was looking for something with a smaller form factor. An added bonus of a SSD is no power block or wall wart as it is powered from the USB connection. I settled on this drive based on the highly rated reviews it gets. Moving my data from a traditional external hard drive to the G-Technology drive via my Mac Book Pro (a 2014 edition) went flawlessly and took a reasonable amount of time considering the amount of data to transfer. The design, style and construction of this little drive is impressive. I can't comment on long term reliability at this point however.

This drive is super fast, light and compact. It's a pocket size SSD drive and is excellent for traveling. I don't have to worry about keeping the drive still and on a flat surface like regular HD drives so I'm not freaking out about my files getting corrupt or the drive improperly ejecting. As well, it can be used with a Mac and PC. G-Tech is a great company and I have had there HD portable drives for years in college and professional gigs. I use them for editing and backing up footage. I haven't had a problem yet. I'll return to this review after some longer term use if I need to comment on it's reliability. I bought it on a Black Friday deal and so I'm happy with the value as much as its quality.

This portable drive is a beast of a drive. Handles all conditions and storage access is fast.

I bought this drive to use for drone photography. The drive is super fast, very lightweight and portable. This drive has survived multiple drops.

After having a few standard spinning hard drive back ups fail on my a friend recommended a solid state drive and said to check out G-Technology. I found this one at a reasonable price and because I travel a lot, I liked the compact size. I've had it over a year now, so it's lasted longer than all my past ones and I can tell it still have a lot of life left. Very happy

Great value and super fast SSD drive. Compact and stylish, works great with my MacBook Pro.

Great size, speed, and design. I have used G-Drives for many years, and this is the reason why

We got it to extend the memory of our ps5. And it does the job.

I purchased this drive to use a media drive for video editing on the go. Thus far the speed and reliability have been exactly what I was looking for. Sure it cost a little more than some of the others but at this point the price is worth the reliability and durability it brings with on the go editing and storage. If you are in the market for fast, reliable, durable storage that just happens to look great as well this is your best buy.

Super fast drive. Very quiet and sleek. I highly recommend this product.

Really great for storing media and virtual instruments. Nice and speedy!

1 TB in something this small, fast and quiet blows my mind.

It's small, fast and very simply to use. I use if for storing and editing video and audio tracks. I'm able to do everything on it including video playback with no problems. With today's computers coming with such small drives this is the way to go for external storage at a good price. It's a great, portable, little drive.

Good storage. Works great for games. Easy to install

Very fast and uses regular USB-C connection making it easy to use any cable in addition to the ones included. Very small size so easy to store and doesn't take much space at all when in use. Software included to reformat for Windows use.

This SSD is amazing. I was shocked by the speed. Capacity is just right for my needs. I love the rugged design and that it has no moving parts. Even though it’s more expensive than hard disk drives, I would go with this again on the durability alone.

Sturdy, small, and easy to use. Does everything I need it too and nothing I don't. I picked up a nice little case to put it in but maybe given the price it could have come with something, however, that's a G-Tech decision.

Small, durable and super fast transfer speeds! On top of that, the included security application adds another level of data protection. I have several of these and recommend them to everyone!

Good SSD that performs. Startup was pretty much self install. Documentation left user thinking there were more steps to perform in startup. Look at drive and it had done all the install steps automatically. The unit is rock solid.
