    If you need to transfer, or backup, digital files and you don't want to use the cloud these external drives are the perfect solution. Small enough to easily carry and work with. The interface is Micro-USB Type B and the drive has the capability for data encryption and password protection.

    The write speed will heavily depend on your computer/laptop since my older laptop took an hour to write what my newer one does in 10 minutes. It's pretty portable and easy to just copy your files over. It does not come with a USB3.0 to USB C connector so you'll need to use your own.

    The item is really small which is nice. Seems that data transfer is on par and the built in software is actually somewhat convenient while not affecting usage if uninstalled. As the basic backup drive it is I've been more than happy with it and it's price point.
