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.

    It's amazing how an item decides of a biscuit can hold so much data. Definitely a must have. You should move on from magnetic hard disks to solid state hard disks like these if you want your data to be safe.

    Had a 3 year old had drive and the spinning disk started to show its age. This ssd made my workflow so much faster and efficient. Also cool that it came with an adapter.

    No doubt a mighty little unit and I’m sure we will be satisfied once we figure it out. But there were no instructions at all on how to use it, and even their website has nothing. I want to use it as a total system backup for a windows laptop, and I’m still not sure how to do that. I’m not a techie, so it’s pretty frustrating.

    This is a product that I bought after examining it very much. In terms of write speed, it is 10-15 times faster than old generation HDDs. A very useful device for archives.

    Great for Photoshop Scratch Disk

    We purchased this primarily to be used with a MacBook Air using Photoshop. We were running out of memory on the MacBook and the software (Photoshop) needed more memory for their "scratch disk". It works perfect. Since it is SSD, there is now sound coming from the unit. It just hangs out and does it's job. I would recommend it to anyone needing more memory. BTW, I tried a flash drive to use as the "scratch disk" and it didn't work.
