Review on πŸ’» EAGET External SSD 256GB USB C 3.0: High-Speed Portable Solid State Drive for PC Laptop Mac Windows Linux Android Gaming PS4 Xbox One Smart TV – Up to 500MB/s by Allen Wagner

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not suitable as a Raspberry Pi 4 boot disk

The disk looked fine and worked as a data disk on Windows and the Raspberry Pi. However, I was unable to use the drive as a boot SSD on the Raspberry Pi: the Pi reports during the Booting "Unsupported block size 4096". And I've carefully completed all the necessary operations, including updating the Pi firmware to the latest beta version. This is probably one of many incompatible discs. I returned the drive as that was my primary use case.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Doubtful
