Review on Netac 500GB Portable SSD with Type C: High-Speed NVME SSD PCIE, USB 3.2 Gen2 10Gbps External Solid State Drive by Joshua Mejia

This portable drive definitely offers enough space for those who want a lot of storage space while keeping the device compact. It's extremely portable and slightly thicker than a standard flash drive. However, it's longer than a standard flash drive, but not by much. Based on the size alone, I would guess that an M2 SSD is used internally to keep the device small. However, it heats up only slightly in standby mode, but remains the same temperature during and after the transfer. Overall, thanks to the aluminum, it still stayed at a safe, warm level. I checked the storage and it's legal 1TB. It connects to the phone with a Type-C to Type-C cable and my Note 10 was able to retrieve the storage. It made it easier to transfer files and free up space on my phone. The drive doesn't draw much power compared to disk drives, making it a great way to back up your phone or desktop. The material is quite durable, although I wouldn't drop it, the surface layer is a little easy to scratch. It also leaves my fingers with oil on the case and leaves fingerprints and the like. I would recommend buying a tote bag if possible. It has both type-c and type-c, as well as USB 3.0 to type-c, so you can use this drive on any device, whether it's a new Mac or PC. If you have a Type-C port, I would recommend using that to improve speed. That doesn't mean USB 3.0 isn't fast. As far as I can tell, the drive's transfer speeds average between 155MB/s and 200MB/s, which is pretty good for a 3.0 speed. For Type-C, you're approaching 500MB/s, but remember that it all varies from device to device. The baud rate hasn't changed or anything I can tell. I've been using it for quite some time. Again, the device can get a bit warm, so keep that in mind when transferring files. Do not cover the drive with a blanket to reduce the amount of heat generated, as this may add to the heat already generated. The portable drive does not need to be formatted and no additional drivers are required. You just plug and play. I will say that the format is exFAT which makes it compatible with MAC. Note that this is not a Thunderbolt 3 device but will work on a Thunderbolt port. The cables themselves are not too long, which suits me fine. You look about a foot into each cord. It's great because there are fewer cables and less clutter. However, the cables are stiff, making it a bit difficult to straighten them. There's a simple elastic you can use to hold the cables together during storage. The drive is fairly light, allowing it to dangle when needed, but I wouldn't recommend doing this all the time as you could damage the cable or connector. Overall I think this product is great. This gives me more than enough storage space on the go while still delivering super-fast speeds.
