    For $99 2TB this was a great price. Being external it is much slower than an internal SSD, but still get nearly 1000 MBps on this.

    On top of the physical protection of the actual body. The SSD is fast and is what I needed as a new storage unit for my videos and photos. Has just enough space for everything I need.

    This is the hard drive to have. A super fast processing transferring files and organizing.. It’s a nine day difference from any other hard drive. You have to spend the money where you need the most.
