## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handy storage
*by A***R on July 26, 2025*

Good price. Works flawlessly. For the person who needs storage is a small package.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So Far So Good
*by D***Y on July 10, 2024*

I have installed a complete operating system (Linux Mint 21.3) along with all my document, video, and music files on this drive because it is advertised to be a 3D NAND portable SSD (although it looks like extra large thumb drive). I move the drive back forth between two home computers and also use it my laptop. I am hoping to get longevity from this drive close to what would be offered by an M2 2280 3D NAND internal SSD. I used LUKS full drive encryption. I also later ordered a second one of these drives, which I use for a complete drive backup (via dd command) about once per week. I had run a speed test using gnome disks using various size files, which returned read speeds between write 370 MB/sec and 440 MB/sec and 310 MB/sec and 420 MB/sec. I use the drive 5 to 6 times per week 2 to 5 hours at a time on a journaling file system. If it doesn't last at least a year, I will update this review. It runs a little hot but my application is really making it work.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Overheats and slows way down
*by G***R on January 5, 2025*

Out box the drive was ExFAT formatted with no files present.Initial Blackmagic Speed Test looked good with 1,072 MB/s writes and 917 MB/s reads.Dragndrop write of many GB of large photo and video files, write speed dropped 90%. You'll need several hours to fill drive.
