    This very compact solid state device (ssd) is excellent for backup storage of files, which everyone should have. I got this one when my previous backup drive (not solid state) failed. This one is smaller, faster and should last much longer.

    Amazingly fast, light and compact. A great replacement for any older USB external drives, like going from a 1990 Chevy Citation to a 2022 Tesla. Insanely fast on a MacBook Pro. This is the third purchase of this item for clients to either upgrade their old drives or for local Time Machine backups. Highly recommend. Great price too!

    Very fast. Great for transferring hundreds or thousands of DSLR captures and Movies. Does get warm to hot and slows (protective throttling) down. Have used ice packs to keep up the speed and long life of SSD. Still faster than a Hard disc drive when hot. 383 GBs and still adding to folder. Still need to transfer Sony video cam movies and pictures.

    Not much change from T5

    Upgraded from T5 1TB. Frankly speaking expected more from it. While the price is acceptable, especially on sales, the difference is really little (didn't perform syntetic tests, but copying documents went at the same speed.) If it is your first external SSD - this is no brainer. Light, portable and little space. Don't heat much, though not ideal. Really good writing/reading speed and 2TB is just what you need for all that modern gaiming or heavy videos. But if you upgrade - than maybe it is best to wait for alternatives. 4 TB are showing more and more.

    My wife called this 'the greatest piece of tech' I ever bought. As a creative it allows her to quickly and easily move massive files between computers at home and on the go. Great build quality, discrete and light. Gets a bit warm during use, but not too bad. It's plug and play, but also has sokid security features like password protection.

    Love the size of it. So slim and not much bigger than a credit card. Plenty of storage space. Transfers media fairly quickly as well. Faster than i expected it to from a laptop that had not been used in a few years. About an hour for more than 100gb of media. Haven't tried from a phone yet. Opens up quickly as well when plugged into another laptop. Only downfall is the encryption process, Haven't totally figured it out yet, but once its encrypted and the password is set up i tried to open it on another device and the media would not show up on the new device, but it was still on the drive. Had to decrypt it on the old device before the media would show on the new device. Overall though it was worth the purchase though.

    I've tried it on many different products; anything from a flagship Android device, MacBook, Win10 system & a Xbox One X. On the MacBook and Win10 setups, it averages speeds right around 850mb/s. On the Xbox One X console it averages about 490-520mb/s due to the console only having USB 3.0, so the SSD is essentially being bottle-necked, which I knew would be the case from day 1. However, in all cases this drive is ridiculously fast, has really nice build quality, easy to use on any platform and for what you're getting it's definitely worth the price. I've made this the main drive from which I run games off of on my XB1X. I have the stock internal 1TB HDD, a 5TB external USB 3.0 HDD that I download all games and apps to, and then I have this new 1TB SSD that I transfer my most played/current game(s) to because it loads and runs so much faster. Overall, I haven't had it long but I have no complaints, yet. If anything changes I'll be sure to update my review, but as of now I have no cons whatsoever about purchasing this SSD. For the price & the future proof of it being USB 3.2 Gen 2, it really is hard to beat.

    No issues at all so far with this drive. I use it for DAW both at home and on stage. It's fast, it's big, and I have no latency issues at all. Some complain about heat issues, but I have not had any, and I tax it out quite a bit (reading DAW sounds). The only con is the price. I wish it were more around the $200 range, and that it were true Thunderbolt, but that typically doubles the price.

    Its just over the size of a credit card and about as thick as pencil. Works great and is lightening fast. I had a TimeMachine for years tucked away in a cabinet so you wouldn't see it. It crashed and now I have this on my desk, you barely even notice. I used it on my iMac and just story on top of the base mount with a short Thunderbolt cable. So much better than my TimeMachine in backup speed.
