It holds up really well. Up to 4T storage which is a lot but I managed to fill it up quickly. Really fast and opens smoothly doesn't crash

Good points: Small (extremely portable). Comes with connectors for both USB-A and USB-C, so it connects to everything. Seems to be fast. Optional whole-disk encryption is very easy to use, keeps private data private. Bought it on sale at about half price, making it an exceptional value.
Concern: On Windows, less usable storage than I expected. Explanation:
On any device, files have 2 sizes: the actual size, and the amount of disk space they use. On this SSD, files are allocated in multiples of 1MB. So a file of 100 bytes uses 1MB of disk space. A file of 1.001MB uses 2MB of disk space. This wasted space was a problem for me. I replaced a 4TB hard drive with this SSD. With 1.5 million files, the hard drive had nearly 2TB free. The SSD has less than 0.5TB free.
The wasted space might not be a problem for you. It depends on how many files you put on the drive.

Of course looks shouldnt matter when it comes to storage options but you gotta admit this sky blue is a good look. No problems with the drive’s functionality. Transfers files fast and has so far been reliable.

Solid product, been looking forward to the increased storage in this series. Not too much larger than my 2GB model but double the storage! Durable, sturdy, solid. 9.5 / 10
