    I bought this SSD along with my new laptop and I'm amazed by the transfer speeds. I've used traditional spinning drives for years, which would leave me with long transfers and time wasted waiting to move files from device to device. This literally moved 20gb in 45 seconds - I am amazed! Looking forward to using this more for video editing projects and backups in the future over my other spinning hard drives.

    I purchased this to be my primary storage drive for my photo library files, to move between my iMac and MacBook Pro computer. Both have native USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports so finally...easy use of my library (1.24 TB and growing) between edit points. Lightweight, short cable, no sound...perfect! Price is still high for SSD USB-C drives but if you need one now, well...

    I carry my laptop in my rucksack and just clip this drive to an outside loop. I have not had any problems. I have not encrypted the drive so I can not speak to this function. I also use this drive between three computers for files I need to have only one copy so I am always working with the most current file. This drive is very useful for this because of its 2TB size.
