    SO much faster than the fastest thumb drives. This thing can transfer a ton of data in 1/10th the time of my ultra USB 3 thumbstick. Perfect for using for my entire CD library. Would recommend.

    I got this because I’ve been using the t3 for a while now. I did notice I could load up large raw files on Lightroom from it fairly quickly, but not quite as fast as my internal storage )I think it’s mainly because my desktop still uses USB-A). I do like how the prices have come down though, considering I paid twice as much for half as much storage two years ago on the T3. The cool blue color doesn’t hurt, either!

    This is great little drive. I use it as an external boot drive for Macbook Pro. Can't tell any significant difference from internal SSD. Never gets hot, even after copy several GB of data.
