Gen 2 (10gb spec), but the package is clearly labeled usb 3. The write speeds are fair. It is slow as it fills up, and the device overheats if it is used a lot.

It feels cheaply made with cheap materials. Also it feels really light and flimsy to me. Will replace with something else.

Been very happy with the product - ssds are the way to go - fast and much less likely to fail.

If the price was $50, i'd roll a nas with them.

Competitiveness


Comes with a c-port and usb3 port cable, which is useful.


This drive does not allow ps5 apps to run directly off of it.

    First that burns electricity and second its more demanding of the little electric motors in a conventional hard drive

    Well see if they still work a few years from now but in my mind they should be more reliable long term
