Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the Extreme Portable 1TB External USB-C NVMe SSD's impressive portability, speed, and compact size. Many appreciate its large storage capacity and lightweight design. However, some users mention that the drive can get warm during use and that the included cable is shorter than desired. A few also find the price to be relatively high.

    Good capacity but still pricey at $129 for 1TB. The 2TB at $249 is pricey.

    Impossibly small and light, this little drive gets the job done. It's also really fast, so you can use it as a true extension of your computer's internal drive. Highly recommended.

    This was meant to be a portable SSD, and it has ideal size and portability to accomplish this mission. It has limitations in transfer speed but works just fine for its intended use.

    I was looking for something small and durable. Great size and rugged. This ssd has wicked fast file transfer speeds. Very compact and the USB adapter makes it compatible with Mac’s or any other PCs I have.

    It's works with my MacBook Pro M1. So many things I have tried don't work well with the M1 MacBook Pro it was such a surprise to actually find something that would work with this piece of crap Mac. Speed is very impressive.

    Versus reliable and fast transfer speeds. I love the fact that it is small enough to fit in any of my small pockets. It is sleek and is able to be carried by the hook opening which makes it convenient to transport.

    With the unexpected crash of my previous External Hard drive and the loss of years of documents and photos, I decided it was time to upgrade to a SSD. I am very pleased with this one so far.

    Still have to use it more. External drives can be scary because they fail much easier. Had a 12TB WD HD fail the fourth time I plugged it in. If this lasts, it should be a great drive. 1TB SSD is solid.
