  • GREAT drive, fast and small!
Capacity: 2TB Style: X6 -up to 800MB/s
I got my previous portable storage solution, the platter-based HDD WD My Passport Ultra in 2TB capacity, back in mid-2015. It's held up for almost eight years and I've been very proud of it. Recently it started to click, most likely meaning that it is on its way out. I take that to mean that the read-write head is striking the inside of the case on occasion. It actually happens maybe only once every two or three minutes when it's idle. So, maybe it's not that bad. And I could retire it to use as an only-occasionally backup drive - when I was copying and moving content from it to the new drive so it could be more easily accessible, the clicking did not occur nearly as often, so maybe I was worried for not much. Which is, fortunately, not an issue at all with the new SSD that I got just recently: Crucial X6! Same capacity, taking up the same position on my desk, but incredibly small - and no moving parts to wear out! YAY! Though of course I don't know for sure, I imagine that the inside is a small form-factor M.2 drive flanked with heat spreaders - the only other option is that the drive takes up the entire space inside the case. Either way, the drive is awesome and performs quite quickly for any number of applications. Much more quickly than the old magnetic drive, that's for sure. A weird thing is that it does not like CrystalDiskMark - creating its test file and then the speed test on it, well, takes a lot longer than I thought it would, whether I keep it on the default of 1 GB or go down to 128 MB. This makes this program unreliable for speed tests in my configuration - if I did not stop the test and let it show the speed that it determined, it would likely be much slower than the actual drive’s speed. Speaking of my configuration: my computer does not have a USBC port on it natively, and this drive only has a USBC port on it, most likely to save on space and keep the drive as miniscule as it possibly can be. Thus, I had to get a USBC to USBA adapter cable, which I had gotten before for use with another drive. As far as I can tell, without being able to use a benchmark program as previously stated, the functionality and speed is fine with this SUNGUY brand cable. And the cable is fairly snazzy as well as you can see, its nylon-esque cover being braided! Back at its inception two years ago, this drive was incredibly expensive at $285, and it was only available in 1 and 2 TB variants - now there's a 4 terabyte variant which I may get sometime. I was able to get this 2 TB variant for $110 and I am very happy about that. In retrospect, it might have been a bit better to be a bit more circumspect about my purchase and spend the extra $20 on the X8, which comes with its own USBA adapter and is apparently faster? (limited by the USBA connection, of course) But that's all right - this will do for me for now, and I'm sure that somewhere down the line I will get the X8 as well, and repurpose this drive for maybe an extra storage device for my Xbox One - or the other way around. Goodness knows it's slow enough with its magnetic drive built in. So yeah. get this drive if you want a little extra capacity and you're able to find a good spot for it to sit on your desk. Since it is so lightweight and small and thus likely to get lost if you don't secure it, I do highly recommend getting cable clips like those little adhesive/silicone ones that can grab onto cables and hold things securely in place - the ones I got have the brand names of OHill, ChefBee and ONME (yeah, I have lots of cables that need securing! ) and are sold here on Amazon for around $10, and come in both white and black (ONME had some Browns in their collection as you can see, but they stopped selling them over the past two years). Do some shopping as your needs entail 🙂 Take care, awesome fellow computer people, and happy storing! ... show more

  • Fantastic but...
Capacity: 2TB Style: X6 -up to 800MB/s
Fantastically small. Fits in the palm of your hand. Much faster than a traditional hard drive. But.. Mac support is not at the same level as PC support. There is software available to tweak the drive for a PC but not available for the Mac. To be honest I played with the PC software and there's nothing there I really need but only offering it for one operating system seems kind of backwards. Also within a day of getting it my Mac would not recognize it and the solution from their website was to reformat the drive through Mac tools. The issue was I already had information on the drive. Luckily I have access to a PC and spent quite some time trying to find enough storage for the two terabytes of data I had on the drive. Since then I have had no issues with it but I've yet to toss my old hard drive as I'm not fully trusting this thing. One suggestion would be to include a shorter usb-c cable. The one that came with it is short but if you pick up the laptop it's still long enough that the drive dangles below and I bumped it on a couple things. A 3-in cable would be perfect. ... show more

  • Beats an external HDD hands down
Capacity: 1TB Style: X6 -up to 800MB/s
If you want a super fast external SSD, this isn't it. If you want a decent speed external SSD that is stupid easy to travel with at an insanely low price, this IS it. It's so light I think my 3' braided USB 3.2 to USB-C cable may outweigh it. You can put it in your pocket and forget it's there, because the weight isn't noticeable. I put 267 GB of data on it and it didn't take that long. I didn't time it, but I was impressed. I had bought a new AIO computer to replace my old computer with a 1TB HDD, but my new one had a 256GB NVMe SSD, so I needed more room. I got this as a solution because I access that data rarely, but often enough. IT JUST WORKS for that application. And I can take it on the road with my new laptop, so BONUS. I've been doing I.T. for 32 years, and this is a great little bit of kit. ... show more

  • Amazing drive with a great unspoken feature
Capacity: 1TB Style: X6 -up to 800MB/s
This is a great price for this size of m2.0. It comes with a cord, It is small and able to fit in a pocket, It has a shock proof shell It is water/coffee proof And When opening for the first time this drive comes with a small re-writting program. Nothing could be better save the drive sive being labeled as the correct storage rate size. Labeled as a 1tb this is actually a 960gb due to drive access write functions at base level code (cannot be removed) or changed unless complete chip re-write is done, the drive remains the same 960gb storage cap. ... show more
