    Blazing Fast External Storage

    A small, rugged, and fast external storage device. Fits in the palm of your hand, lightweight, and has a rubberized coating. Comes with a USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables. The device has one USB-C port, and a status light. The Blue is a nice deep color. In the pictures attach are speed from connecting to a USB3-C Gen2, USB3-C Gen 1, USB3-A, and USB 2 ports. On a USB3 Gen 2, 2.4GB took ~5 seconds, about 600MB per second. USB3 Gen 1 took ~10 seconds for the same file. Tried it with multiple files and it never got hot. Samsung Magician recognized the device and provided the speeds with various connections. It also comes with Samsung Portable SSD Software which allows you to password protect the drive. No password, no access, so your protected on the go with AES 256-bit hardware encryption. Small, fast, and reliable. 1TB is a good size for carrying a lot of files, or music, whatever you need. Samsung SSD's have are usually reliable and with no moving parts, I'd expect this to last a while, even with drops and getting water on it as it's IP65 rated.

    Bought this to move several hundred gb of data from my old machine to new one. It's shockingly fast and seems like a well built device. The rubberized exterior is really nice.
