Pros and cons

According to our External SSD expert

  • Thanks to the small size, this SSD can easily fit in your pocket or backpack.
  • You can quickly transfer files thanks to the 1050MB/s read speed and work without delays.
  • You can use the SSD directly with Windows, Mac, Android, and Linux devices, without formatting them.
  • If you often work with raw files such as .RAW or .MOV, we recommend at least 2TB.
  • This SSD doesn't have a Thunderbolt connector.

I'm thinking of buying another one.

  • The transfer is super fast
  • Very small device.
  • Is silent
The transfer is super fast and there is a 5 year warranty. That says something about the product..

Great, fast SSD

  • Very fast
  • Reliable, very stable connection.
  • The USB-C cable is one-way. If you plug it in the wrong way, nothing happens. Not a big deal, but you should know it
Works fast, no hassle with Android file transfer or something like that, but the Kingston is immediately found in the Finder or Explorer. File transfer between laptop and Kingston is a breeze.
