Review: Light and fast. - So far it is working with no fails. Really light, I would say than the cable to connect it, one I bought, is heavier than this SSD. Plug in the proper port (usb 3.2) makes it really fast to move files. Great device. One thing for those with no regular use in disk like this. When is conneted to an android, will have the normal folders you can find in your phone, in case asks to format it. If you plan to plug in a PC or mac, just format it as exFAT, with this format you can plug in any computer -windows, linus or mac-. That is the best you can do to be sure you can reach the content with no problems about formatting.
Review: Excellent value for money with quick speeds! - Excellent value for money. For the price you pay you get an absolute speedy small SSD. The SSD itself comes with a leather pouch, USB-C to USB-A adapter and a 30CM USB A to USB C data cable. The drive is small, thin and light weight (Think of a Milky Way bar!). I tested this drive on my PC and the speeds given match what has been said in description. I am lucky to to have a motherboard which has a USB 3.2. Gen 2 USB A&C ports at the back. On the front PC case (NZXT H510) I have a USB-C port and USB A port, unfortunately the motherboard does not have a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Front header, so the speeds here are only at 5Gbps (USB 3.1 Gen 1). The first image with speeds at 458 is the front IO ports, this is a decent speed with quick transfers even though it is not at is maximum speed. This was tested at 1 GiB. The second image with the speeds at 509 was tested on the USB 3.2 Gen 2 port 1GiB, as you can see the speeds have increased quite a bit both read and write, with surprisingly writes being slightly faster (but we could probably ignore this was this was only 1 test) The third image shows tests using 16GIB and the speeds are still fast on the Gen 2 port at over 500MB/s The fourth image this time using 10 16 MiB data and the drive speeds increase to it's advertised 550 MB/S impressive! The 5th image shows copying files from a Kingston USB data traveller (128GB) to the SSD 11GB of data (ISO files of Linux OS) this took around 60 seconds and stayed at a consistent speed of 200MB/S very good! The 6th images shows copying from the SSD to my internal NVME (Downloads folder) again 11GB of data and this was being written at 460MB/s (My internal drive reaches reads/writes at around 2GB second). The 7th image shows copying the same files 11GB of data from my desktop PC to the SSD this was being done at speeds of 387MB/s these are very good speeds for a small drive. Lastly, the last image shown at speeds of 44MB/s this occurred when using a USB 3.0 cable so be warned you need a good quality reliable USB 3.2. Gen 2 cable to get the maximum speeds, the speeds may also be affected by external USB Hubs/Docks. --------------------------------- LINUX TESTS --------------------------------- I briefly tested this on Kali Linux copying the same files (no images) I was getting speeds of 360MB/s writes copying from laptop to SSD. (The laptop has an NVME at 2GB/s speed) This was with the drive at around 200GB capacity. Once I cleared this and started at 232GB (The actual disk space useable) I first initially got 700 MB/s for smaller 2GB files and then the speed dropped down to 400/500MB/s writing files to SSD from laptop. This is still very good speed, it took 20 seconds copying those files compared to 10 minutes when I copy from my USB Stick! Overall the price/value ratio is excellent the speed on the drive means I know longer need to wait 10 minutes for files to copy. One of the reasons I purchased this was because of the slow file transfers of USB sticks (looking at you Kingston!), this solves that problem and I can quickly get back to work. The drive is small enough to fit a pocket back. There are no negatives about this, personally I didn't need the leather pouch think it's just additional waste and not environment friendly, but this is a minor personal issue.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Currently have a 500gb hard drive plugged into my tv to record from usb will this do the same job please**
A: It is used as an external memory drive, and you can connect it to your device through a cable.
It has a usb interface.
thank you.

**Q: Does this come with a cable, and what cable if it does.**
A: Mine came with a 'c' type USB to standard USB cable.  It also had a convertor to make it 'c' type to 'c' type.  But if you want to plug it into a standard android phone you will need a standard USB to phone connector adaptor cable.  That's what I bought, anyway.

**Q: I am getting horribly slow transfer speeds on my imac m1. 12mb-15mb/s. this is crippling. any ideas how to fix this?**
A: Are you sure you're using a compatible cable? Some cables - even USB-C to USB-C - don't allow for full speed. I found that the included cable, with adapter, worked fine for me and got 450MB/s write, 500MB/s read.

**Q: Can this be used with an iPhone 7**
A: You could use USB C to lightning cable it would work

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little external ssd for running a portable Linux compute node.
*by R***D on 19 April 2026*

Great external ssd device, exactly what I need. I have a monster and ryzen 9 with twin rtx 5080s. The machine (aka beast) came with windows 11 and I didn’t realize at the time this was a bad idea. The issue is that the power requirements for the beast are a little too much for a domestic power supply. Windows has trouble cold booting and when I login the gpus are initialised requiring yet more power making the system unstable. Disabling the gpus doesn’t solve the problem. So at this point I needed an external SSD where I could install Linux and boot it as primary when it’s is plugged in. For about £40 The netac 250gb ssd is just the right size for a couple of Linux partitions, some swap and a reasonable scratch data partition without needing a much more expensive larger drive. Recommended for overriding windows in a safe controlled manner and building a compute node.
