Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the portability, size, and overall performance of the My Passport 1TB External USB Type-C Portable SSD, with many praising its compact design and fast speeds. Positive feedback also mentions the ample storage capacity and convenient connectivity options. However, some users have noted concerns regarding heat generation and occasional compatibility issues with certain systems. A shorter-than-ideal cable length was also mentioned as a minor drawback.

    This is really easy to use and practical. The only reason why it is 4 stars, is because often times, the drive doesn't arrive formatted, and when you reformat it, you lose the software it comes with. I know that the software isn't exactly useful to many, but it would be nice to have a way to redownload it from a website or something if necessary. For those that don't care about that software, if you need a cost-effective good-value external SSD, this one is for you. This one also came with a Type-A adapter for those that don't have USB-C ports on their device.

    This drive is serving my purpose well. Needed to replace an HDD for back up of certain files. The old drive suffered a failure and this is working great. Too bad I could not register it, the site threw me off each time I tried. Hope it doesn't quit.

    I have several of these. So far no issues with any of them. I stay with the 1 or 2 TB size because bigger just means you lose more if you misplace the drives. Go for the faster speeds when they run the specials.
