Customers are saying

Customers recognize the Extreme Portable 2TB External USB-C NVMe SSD as highly portable and appreciate its excellent overall performance and compact size. The generous storage capacity is also frequently praised. While some users noted that the drive can get warm during extended use and that the included cable is short, these concerns are less prevalent than positive feedback.

    This external hard drive is sleek, small, and fast. My niece said it has decreased the amount of time to move video files dramatically (more than 90% faster than her thumb drive). I’d like to see a slightly lower price point but I appreciate a quality and hassle free product. Will update review is issues occur.

    A Good Portable SSD

    It is a portable SSD, nothing more. They either work or don't work. There is always some discussion (among tech websites) about SSD speeds. This one gets good ratings. But for the average user, who can really tell the difference? I am using the 2TB unit with a MacBook Pro and everything works. Some may find the cable short (just a few inches), but I like that. I have no idea why there is a hole in the corner — strictly design, I suppose.

    I purchased this SSD from the Black Friday sale with an additional discount for recycling my old WD hard drive. Coming from a disk drive, this was a huge performance boost and I could not be happier with my purchase. The ruggedness of working with this HD is makes it super compatible with work travel.

    This little guy is one of the best SSD I ever own. I purchased one of these two years ago and used it to back up my computer. I now bought another one. It’s easy to use and it’s physical size is amazing.

    Great read/write speed and very portable. Durability seems really solid, especially at the connection point. I've had smaller capacity SSD drives, but this is my first to fully back up everything on my PC.

    Fast and portable. Along with a nice loop for a carabiner or some paracord, it can easily be mounted on a pack for portability. It has a nice finish that seems to make it slip resistant in case your hands are wet when handling it. I would choose this over other brands that have similar specs … being constantly outdoors and traveling I find it very convenient to have something this portables

    Considering I have NAS file servers and cloud backup, this has been very handy. I carry it in my backpack and I’m able to work offline. Did however find older smart TV’s don’t see it.

    I use this to play a collection of retro games from the DOS era. This thing is overkill so I'm pretty sure it will do if you need a bit of movable storage.
