### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great little 2tb drive
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2024*

We use this in our Rivian for security camera storage - without it we'd get very little archived video. Can confirm this works great for that application - as well as easy hookup to USB-C Mac for initial erase/format.  Not sure about the rated speed but its plenty fast for an external drive at its price, and the small size is great too. I gave tech support 5 stars but in truth haven't needed to contact anyone...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Feels cheap
  

*by M***. on Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2023*

This external SSD does what it says and works fine (though I admittedly didn't test their speed claims).  I was able to write and read data to it with no issues.  The wire has a USB-C connection at both ends and I was able to use it from both my computer and Samsung Galaxy phone.My only complaint is that it feels very cheap.  This drive is a bit smaller than the size of a credit card and a little over 1/2 inch thick, but it weighs almost nothing.  I suppose some may like that it weighs so little, but I ordered this for use traveling as shooting 4K video can fill my memory cards quickly, but I'm not confident it'll last through many trips.  It feels like the thing is made of a single layer of plastic, with absolutely no metal except for what is needed for the internal chips.If you're looking for an SSD for home use, this will work fine, but if you intend to travel with it or otherwise carry it a lot, you might want to consider a different one.
