Our Take
A rugged, pocketable external SSD aimed at photographers, videographers and anyone who needs fast, reliable storage that can survive being chucked in a bag. The 2TB model sits in the mid-to-upper range of the portable SSD market, priced above budget drives but below professional RAID or Thunderbolt units, competing directly with Samsung's T7 series.
Key Features
USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection delivering sequential speeds in the region of 1,050MB/s read and write
IP55 rating for resistance to dust and water splashes/jets
Rubberised, silicone-style exterior designed to cushion drops
Compact card-sized form factor that fits easily in a jacket pocket
Includes both USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A cables in the box
Small loop on the casing for attaching a carabiner or lanyard
Our Verdict
A sensible buy for anyone wanting dependable, knockabout storage for photos, video or backups without paying flagship prices. Casual users needing only occasional file transfers could save money with a slower drive, while professionals chasing maximum throughput should look at pricier Gen 2x2 or Thunderbolt alternatives instead.
