Review: Blazing fast - Amazing. Very fast. If copying 10s of GBs, could become a bit slow. Better than most usbs.
Review: Excellent value and top tier quality - This is a premium product, made of high quality and very rigid polycarbonate. I use it to backup photos and videos from a smartphone to save space on the device. When connected to my laptop usb 3.2 port the speeds were as advertised. My galaxy ultra phone is ama to copy 30GB of media in under a minute which is amazing, could not have asked for more. Now this usb sick will be in my back when I'm travelling with no worry of taking too much footage on the phone or a camera.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent value and top tier quality
*by T***M on 27 March 2024*

When connected to my laptop usb 3.2 port the speeds were as advertised. My galaxy ultra phone is ama to copy 30GB of media in under a minute which is amazing, could not have asked for more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for its budget: High speeds/Poor build
*by V***I on 29 May 2025*

The speed are indeed as advertised (~1000MB/s Read and ~900MB/s Write) used through Thunderbolt4 connector (which is backward compatible to USB 3.2 Gen2, that was advertised on the product's page) — that's highly satisfying! Of course, the storage is again enormous for its money. Not particularly easy to use, though, mainly because my type C ports are located at the back of the laptop, and the drive in itself is long. On the other side, as noted in numerous reviews on amazon, which also resonated with my personal experience of use — the build is awful, like it seems an unreliable piece of plastic, especially with this sliding to-and-fro feature, that can break anytime even with light use. This is what happens with a lot of customers: the drive breaks after 1 year or 1.5 years of infrequent use. Also, it becomes really warm during use, as said by other users, too. So, generally this is exactly what I needed: cheep and cheerful device with high speeds and huge storage, although not the best build. Still, for future I will be investing more money in reliability of a flash drive with my vital data (never use only one storage for all your important information).
