inexpensive, small, light, durable and lightning fast

I needed a lightweight portable USB SSD to test the new macOS Catalina and found it at Revain. It was sent in 1 day, small, sturdy and very light, looks great. It worked right away, all I had to do was partition the drive, load the software and it's lightning fast compared to the 1TB USB hard drive I used. The entire Catalina installation process took less than 12 minutes compared to 25-30 minutes on a typical hard drive. Turned it on and used it for a couple of hours and the case got a little…

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Great product but be careful what it already has on it.

I bought an SSD to use as extra storage for my netbook. However, when I plugged it in for the first time, I noticed that it already had video on it. I didn't think much about it and immediately formatted the device which deleted the file. I don't think the file was bad considering its small size. Most likely, the video served to check the performance of the device. Therefore, other customers simply format the device before using it. If there was no file left on the device I would rate it 5…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • No automatic setup

Overall impression, but with limitations.

I've been pretty impressed with this so far, although at least with the USB 3 cable the speed wasn't that impressive. One thing I found a little disturbing is that it doesn't seem to work well with a powerful laptop (the first "gaming" laptop I had) when connected to a Thunderbolt 3 port, where it seems to be overheating and behaving poorly. could be an issue with the laptop as well as everything else as it didn't misbehave when plugged into a USB-C cable from another laptop.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Repair

ANOTHER EPIC FAIL! for computers and accessories

Yet another failed Kexin product. I have bought MANY of their products and apart from a few small capacity microSDs they have all PASSED! about this seller so I'll keep this short and sweet, not attacking and hoping the truth comes out. Realistically, I'll just post the FAILED read/write speed test, call it Completion, and let you/my fellow Revain buyers decide if you're willing to take the risk. Remember this is the third product to fail. ***IMPORTANT*** To make matters worse, this seller…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Negative impression

Quick and easy to use

It's so small I'm afraid of losing it. That's half a TB. As long as you connect it to a good USB 3.0 port, data will be copied quickly. I've used it to move maybe 600GB from an old laptop to a new one. This is very fast compared to a traditional external drive. No power supply is required other than a USB connection. I hope after a few ears it will be just as reliable.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • New competitors

**Third time, 3 separate orders, 3 different products failed! SMX!

Once again the Kexin product is no good. My last 2 reviews have not been published and I think maybe because I dug deep into them so I'll be short and sweet and hope this brings the truth out. Realistically, I'll just post a FAILED read/write speed test and call it complete and let you/my fellow Revain buyers decide if you're willing to take the risk. Remember this is the third product to fail. FYI, what's worse, they didn't reply to any of my messages, and we/revain buyers are entitled to a 1…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Should the new drive be empty, loaded with a mysterious application?

Outrageous. I'm buying an external SDD (probably empty) that comes pre-installed with a Chinese movie app that cannot be removed. WTF? How can I tell if it has already infected my system and stolen personal information or if it won't be able to do so in the future? Shut down this company. Let them explain. Outrageous.

Pros
  • Beautiful packaging
Cons
  • For the old
