    Originally purchased as an external drive for my Xbox One X, I've used this for moving large datasets between PCs, and am seriously impressed with the speeds on tap. I'm getting close to 700MBs/sec reads and writes with this little beast, making transfers quick and easy. Admittedly, this is my first foray into high speed external SSDs, but if this guy is any indication of what is possible, I may be looking at getting a couple to have on hand.

    A Great Little Big Drive!

    I was looking for an external ssd for my new laptop and spotted this one afternoon. It was on sale so I bought it. It was a lot smaller that it looked in the picture (a good thing). The drive is encased in a rubber-like substance and has a USB-C port next to a small LED that shows the drive is operating and transferring data on one end. It comes with two small connectors: one has a USB-C connector on both ends; the other has a USB-A 3.0 connector on one end and a USB-C connector on the other. This allows connection to most computers available today (including quite a few older ones). Its dimensions are 3.5" x2.3" x 0.3" or smaller than a 3" x 5" spiral top note pad. I use it for projects and work-related files but this would be perfect for a gaming computer. Plugged into a USB-A 3.2 USB port, this thing transfers files very fast but plugged into a USB-A Thunderbolt 4.0 port transfers are nearly instantaneous. While running projects the external drive behaves just like the internal SSD on my laptop. Transfers and updates are in the "blink of an eye", so to speak. If your computer is short on SSD space, this device is an excellent choice for additional hard drive space for gaming, photographs, videos, etc. Another use for this is taking photos from your digital camera or phone and archiving them. Depending on the camera/phone, you may need a port adapter. All in all, a superb peripheral with a tiny footprint but huge storage capacity at a modest price. Highly recommend.

    Work great for intended purpose but...

    We used to use the small rugged Sandisks but after a corrupt batch our company started using these. They are fast and work great for their intended purpose. I'm taking off 1 star for the material of the casing. Nothing will stick to them. We have tried several types of very sticky tape (gaff, duct, shipping) and various stickers and shipping labels. Nothing sticks because the material is this weird, slippery rubbery material. It's like trying to put tape on a grease spill. People generally need to be able to label their hard drives but there is no way to attach a label or tape so labeling is nearly impossible. The only solution I found was to write directly on the label using a silver paint pen. This is fine if you never intend on using the hard drive for something else down the line so don't need to relabel it. I don't know if they can change the material but maybe if they include a pre-installed writable white area on the exterior that would solve the problem.
