Plenty of storage and compact
The SSD drive was perfect to store all of my files and media I wanted saved. It works great at transferring documents, pictures, and videos. It’s pretty fast and has 2tb of storage which is more than enough storage for everything I use it for. I mostly use it to save my pictures and videos. It’s small and lightweight which makes it easy to carry it around.

Nice little backup SSD for the price (1 TB)
I was concerned from some of the reviews I read, after ordering, that it may not have a USB C 3 connection, but it does. I got close to the rated speed when tested with Black Magic Speed test and a high speed USB C cable (“thunderbolt 4” - so confusing, I know). I never tested the speed with the included short cable. However, during the process of creating a new ~350GB ...

Good, BUT
I had a Kingston Bolt, which became obsolete with updates to operating systems. I loved that little gadget and hoped that this product would be as good or better. Alas, I find it much harder to use, particularly because - unlike the Bolt - there is no App to use on my phone. I realize it has a LOT more storage capacity, but it is not as good for simply getting files off...

Reliable compact SSD
Great little storage device. This ssd has 2tb of storage and includes a usb a to c cable with an adapter included (usb a to c). The transfer speed is quick, the device itself has a nice metal build and does not require any external power supply. This is perfect for someone on the go or someone who wants a reliable ssd in a compact size.

Fast and compact!
In my tech husband’s words: Read speed unnoticeable compared to C drive. Everything transferred super fast. There was no delay when opening files from it. Small compact size that easily fits in your pocket.
In other words: he loved it!

Tiny but mighty!
This is great! I love how tiny and compact this external ssd is. It is easy to transport and fits perfectly in my laptop bag to go to and from. It is tiny but mighty with 2TB of storage! I was frequently having to choose which files to keep and which to delete as my laptop was quickly running out of room for storage. This is such a great product and it’s no wonder it wa...

I really liked this external drive. I loved that it is small with a lot of capacity. I can’t say much for the durability yet but so far it’s working great!

Excellent Product
I received this for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest review! This is my first experience with a portable SSD and I have no complaints! It’s very travel friendly and can hold a lot of data (I received the 500gb option but I know there are 1-2TB as well!). Very user-friendly and a great product for the price point. I’d definitely recommend!

Having big memory
Kingston XS1000 external ssd card is having a big size which is all I wanted because my 1TB external hard disk just was broken. I’m so grateful for this new device and it’s not big and heavy to carry. I think I can run my old Asus mini laptop with it.

Compact, Quick, and a lot of Space to Store Files
For over a decade, I have worked with numerous external drives for all types of computing uses. The Western Digital XS1000 1TB external USB-C drive is an incredible leap forward in terms of capacity and speed. The external interface (usually over USB) typically slows down data transfer rates, but even with the included USB-C to USB-A cable transfers of 50GB+ completed i...

Great!
This is such a handle little device. It is small enough to pack away for travel or just leave next to my computer. Required little to no set up and has reliably transferred files to and from my computer with no hiccups.
