Pros & Cons
Pros
Light enough that you can safely dangle it off the end of the iphone while recording. Loads smoothly onto both my ipad pro 12. It's perfect for video editing- works great! Just plug and play.
The silver/gray (there’s a slight metallic sheen to it) is attractive without being flashy. The storage for the price is good. The price is pretty competitive for the 4tb model that i got, and i'd say it was worth every penny.
First off, it’s shockingly small and portable. I highly recommend this drive to anyone who needs something versatile and compact. The enclosure is tiny and sleek.
Usb-c 3. Is faster than usb-3. But it's not as fast as usb 3. This drive is mainly used for file exchange between systems- one tb capacity, and transfer speeds up to 1gb per second. It backs up my desktop 1tb drive in 19 minutes - so it's really fast.... Read More
Micron ct2000x9prossd9 per diskgenius, win 10 is seeing this as a scsi device. Decent data transfer (400+ mbps data transfer rate in crystal disk mark 8. Disk comes formatted in xfat, but reformatted to ntfs with no issues. It reads it fine, i am able... Read More
Cons
Trouble-shot for over an hour, including attempted pairing with an macbook pro. To me, this is inexcusable and a huge mistake on their part. And what a shame for a well designed, well engineered product.
Highlights
Quality
I tested with iphone 15 pro, recording pro res 4k video, and work fine, in my computer speed is maintained between 800 mb/s to 1000 mb/s
This portable ssd is very nicely made.
The read and write speed says "up to" 1000+ mb, but after transferring roughly 3tb of data from my msi gaming rig to this drive... Read More
Some dropped frames were observed when recording footage to that drive for 4k 30p log footage.
Price
Storage as described and price with the shipment is very convenient and affordable.
A an $89 app let me copy all the files from the unmountable drive to a separate drive.
Well worth the money - around 129 bucks.
Prices for ssd’s have come way down!
Shipping
I was surprised when it was delivered by usps to my small mailbox.
Transfers from an sd card (gold) in one port to this on another are faster than expected.
Packaging/appearance
It's amazing that 1tb is in a package this small.
I knew it’s small in size but when it arrived it was even smaller than i expected, really love the small size!
Competitiveness
This drive significantly beats out other ssd's i own for speed and convenience.
I will buy again, these drives by crucial are the best, both the x9 and x10 are excellent choices.
Wrap your head around the fact that a portable 2 tb drive barely bigger than a match book and weighing about as much is availab... Read More
I was surprised how small this thing was compared to a samsung t7.
