Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Some pros: The disk is a good workhorse. The kit comes with two cables Type C - Type A, Type C - Type C. Therefore, you can connect to both new and old computers. In the characteristics on , only one available USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C interface is incorrectly indicated. In fact, the drive works with both USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 and even USB 2.0. If you need high write speeds, then you need to understand that the drive uses SLC caching and will only write ~ 5% of the available capacity at full…

A wonderful product, its nice to use.

A small, comfortable, not easily soiled case, it is not enough, it’s a pity only, silvery, comfortable, moderately flexible, laces, conveniently twisted with Velcro. Although the case may be scratched, I would advise using the case only for carrying, it is possible that the disk will overheat when used.

Pros
  • The speed over USB 3.0 on my 2022 iMac is more than decent. Some SSDs via thunderbolt 2 below.
Cons
  • It was not possible to attach it to thunderbolt 2 through an adapter , Thunderbolt3 (USB-C) to thunderbolt2(

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

I bought the drive just the other day and have not yet gained much experience of use, but the first impression is excellent. I did tests when connected to a laptop via USB Type C to a Thunderbolt 3 port and when connected to a regular USB 3.0 (3.2 gen 1). Screenshot results. When connected to a USB 3.0 port, the speed is still slower. Some pros: 1. Good drive speed 565MB/s linear read, 525MB/s linear write. Random read and write numbers aren't bad either. 2. Good design and miniature. I have a…

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

Small, handy and very nimble modern drive with great potential for long service life. Whoever has problems with watching movies and working on different devices, I advise you to immediately force format it to NTFS, in theory, initially there is such a file system, but after forced formatting, all micro problems with the hard drive ended. (not the cable)

Pros
  • Very fast loading and responsive, quiet, cool, compact, impressive overwriting potential.
Cons
  • Not

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

Got pros: One of the best external SSDs, great for building a working external system/storage that needs to be worked on all the time. I used a similar one very actively before this for about 5 years and everything is still fine with it, I decided to buy a second one) With its cons. Now the price is probably high, before the rise in price everything cost around 10-11 thousand, and it was very good.

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Pros: Work speed (writes RAW video without problems) Stability (I mount directly from it without interruption) Package contents (2 cables type-c → type-c and type-c → usb-a) Cons below: Rigid complete cable (bought for use with BMPCC 4K and if you mount the disk on the cage, it is difficult to lay the cable without worrying about the connector on the camera)

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Type-C is great! The old standards for connecting external drives were just awful. Different pros: Very light and compact, I always carry it with me. Dropped several times and not hurt. Excellent write speed. Quality build Some cons: A couple of times it happened that the computer stopped seeing it when it was connected and not used for a long time, in general, it did not cause any inconvenience in operation

Poor quality item, not what it needs.

The impressions of the service are terrible at the very beginning until I got a competent employee, but this is luck, you may not be lucky in this With its pros. Free shipping And a technical support manager named Artem talked over the PHONE, as strange people are sitting in the chat, who sent me to a "computer in my city", although the disk was bought 1 day ago and is still under warranty Once again, thanks a lot to Artem, whom I had to call through the search for contacts of the amazon phone

Good quality product, I rate this purchase excellent.

Fast, compact, perfectly transfers the load, does not heat up (at all). Used to work with WinOS. Constantly under load of several VMs in a room without air conditioning, no lags / overheating were noticed. In a room with a temperature of 25-30C, the operating temperature of the SSD is not higher than 35-40C. In use for a month. Obtained characteristics: R/W over USB-3: 510/490 Mbps R/W over USB-C: 550/520 Mbps

Pros
  • - Speed ​​characteristics - Claimed MTBF - No overheating
Cons
  • Too tight cables

I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

I myself use such things - very rarely - I buy, if necessary, something to transfer (from one computer to another - rarely). I decided this time to try an SSD - I was not disappointed, yes. And speed, and dimensions / EU - no options, no match for HDD. On the screen - my results (to the Type-C port - on the laptop) - on the right. Compared to the review (here) And - mine are different, for the better. (Second line - as much as 4.5 times.) Copying 4.56 GB (a bunch of files of different sizes…

Pros
  • 1. Dimensions and Weight are excellent. 2. Speeds are decent. 3. Cables - included. Type-C - Type-C Type-C - USB
Cons
  • 1. The price, of course, is cheaper, you always want it. (However, I look - there are more expensive ones. At the same time - their performance characteristics are weaker) 2. Cables are short ((about 30 cm) and hard.

Good quality product, the price is commensurate with the quality.

I've been wanting an external SSD for a long time. Chose not long. The choice fell, as always, this Portable SSD USB T5 500GB MU-PA500B/WW. Samsung themselves produce all the stuffing. 3 year warranty. That is, before him I had and still have a 500GB Samsung HDD (he is already 6-8 years old). I recommend this CD! But now, I already think that it was necessary to take probably 1TB)))

Pros
  • Extra small 57*74mm Very light Fast, nimble. Movies, music is downloaded very quickly. Warranty 3 years
Cons
  • No case included. Price.

Not a bad product, but I expected a little more.

threw off 40 GB of photos and 45 GB of video on a blank disk of 2 TB. the speed when transferring a photo ranged from 25 to 35 mb / s, when uploading a video from 90 to 400 mb / s, more often to the lower border. the controller and memory are clearly not designed for small files, and large ones too. there is also a sandisk, here its speeds ranged from 150 to 170 with a photo, and up to 500 mb / s with a video. Well advertised product. Hope only for continuity and fault tolerance.

Pros
  • compact
Cons
  • no advertised speeds even close

The right product for me, there were no problems.

The disk has a metal case, after the street it becomes very cold. There is an inconspicuous activity indicator. By default, the drive is formatted in exFAT. I didn’t like encryption with a regular program: you need to install it everywhere to work with the disk. And the most important point: if you forget the password, it is proposed to contact the SC to reset the disk. The disk is mounted only after entering the password, otherwise only the hidden section with programs is displayed. It is…

Pros
  • - Fast (450 MB / s for writing and reading via USB 3.0) - Connection via modern USB-C - Two wires included to connect to all devices (USB-A & USB-C) - Lightweight and compact
Cons
  • - Impractical case on which scratches will be clearly visible. Now I'm thinking about buying a carrying case. - Standard software (better not to use)

Best I have ever used, great product for anyone!

It connects instantly, the speed is good, but I could not overclock it by more than 400 MB per second, copied, disk and disk one 6 GB file, the speed is about the same, USB 3.2 gen2 port, 3.2 gen 1 was even smaller. The disk is good, as the photo storage is perfect, I would like to use it to watch downloaded movies on the TV, but it didn’t work out, the disk was defined, but the file system could not be read (extFAT ?)

Pros
  • Build quality, two cords included, nimble and light
Cons
  • I didn’t overclock more than 400 MB per second, I couldn’t read it on the LG TV

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I use a disc for video editing. To say that at the first attempt to mount from it I was surprised is to say nothing. The performance of the montage (FCPX) seems to have increased significantly. Loading a library, jumping from one sequence to another, pasture became noticeably faster. Most of the delays just disappeared. Previously, I mounted only from ordinary terabyte hard drives. So if there is a need to speed up the installation and there is no way to purchase a new computer, try this disk…

Pros
  • Small, light. Can be carried in any pocket. Affordable price at the moment. Two cables included: the ability to connect out of the box both to old computers with regular usb, and to modern ones with usb-s.
Cons
  • It did not reveal, except for suspiciously strong heating when copying a large amount of data.
