    If you need compact fast storage, this is what you need. Admittedly, it is not cheap by any means, but well worth the money if you can spend it.

    I normally use it with windows, but it will also work with my android phone and tablet. I don't know if it works with a Mac or not, sense I don't have a Mac or IPad to try it on. Your devices need a USB-C connection or a cable to go from USB-C to your devices. The cable that come with the 500GB SSD is USB-C to USB-C.

    I would highly recommend this device. For a portable hard drive, I would only buy solid state, as impacts can damage platter hard drives.
