fast read/write

Small and rugged

Arrived formatted exFat, GPT from Crucial. A few preinstalled offers included links to, Acronis backup software, Mylio Photo Organizer and the Crucial support webpage. The first thing I did was use software to repartition the drive then format to NTFS. I will mention after running synthetic benchmarks formatted NTFS then reformatted back to exFat produced little difference in benchmarks speed-wise. I used Crystal DiskMark9 to check speed. I have a Thunderbolt PCIE card installed and anticipated a jump in Read/Write speeds when using the Thunderbolt option. To my surprise, there was little difference in speed from the USB-C than when tested while connected to the Thunderbolt adapter. When connected with USB-C Read/Write bench speeds of 1041/1005 MB/s were reached. Testing speed connected to the PCIE Thunderbolt adapted showed R/W 1043/1023 MB/s. The synthetic speed tests were well below the advertised 2100 MB/s. I wasnt disappointed with the speeds, but I did expect my tests to be closer to the advertised speeds. And Im not sure why my unit didnt test closer to the 2100 MB/s. The advertised speeds could have been reached using a different software, not sure why my results showed lower R/W speeds. I happened to have a portable 1GB hard drive from around the 2004 era. The speeds hardly compare to the Crucial X10, but its amusing to see the difference in the size of the units (see picture). This Crucial X10 is nothing short of extraordinarily fast for a portable USB drive. I will definitely be using this drive next time I copy my music and music video files. Large enough to copy my main PCs entire storage drive. The cutting-edge speeds will be a real time-saver.

This drive is less expensive than its closest competitor, is overall a good value for 2TB of storage (especially given that internal 2TB SATA drives, which you might also consider if you have a desktop, are not that much cheaper and limited to 550MB/s). It's twice that speed (well almost, see below). It's also very small, and includes a Type C cable (although it's quite short - you'll probably want a longer one).

This product does work as advertised but I needed to buy a Thunderbolt 4 cable and plug it into the only USB-C Gen 4 2x2 port on my PC. On the front USB-C port is a Gen 3 port, I "only" get 1000MB/s read instead.

Plug-n-play, no separate power brick required. Very fast with USB-C port. Amazingly compact for a drive of 4 TB size. Well made and good looking case design. Packaging is very sturdy.

- 3 Year Warranty with registering - Perfect for storing (off loading) PS5 games - Acronis True Image For Crucial - Software included - 1 month of Adobe® Acrobat Pro upon registering the Crucial X10 (if desired) - IP65 certified water/dust resistant - Drop resistant to 3 meters

Extreme, extreme speed, and future products will just keep getting better and cheaper. Fast format, loads all types and size files with ease and speed. Efficient, saves tons of time compared to using even a very fast thumb drive, SSDs as portable storage devices are the future, in the present. Storage capacity is what a dream of mine a few years ago would be, yet maintaining a very attainable price point. Was able to transfer all my games from one computer to another within minutes, glad the new motherboards have the necessary ports to use the drive's speed to the fullest. Smaller than a portable hand sanitizer, so light that you'll think you've lost it many times a day just to realize it's been in your front pocket all day long.

Comes with data migration software

This was less expensive than lesser models, from Samsung Small, fast, trusted brand & inexpensive.

I knew it was small but man, once I had it in my hands I couldn't get over how TINY it is. It works great and seems fast, perfect for backing up my system in order to switch from windows to linux.

Good transfer rate, great protective casing, easily portable. Excellent value for the money!

This thing is TINY! Comes with cable. Ready to use.

- Super small (can fit easily in a purse, pocket, or laptop bag - Super fast (I transferred about 500g worth of heavy video files in about 10 minutes)

Its personally fast for me when I transfer, import and export. I mainly use it to edit videos on my Macbook Pro with the M1 chip. So far so good, not the fastest in terms of export but it will do.

4TB is a good size for me. Like the grip of the padding. Good USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 speed.

This is compact like the size of a Zippo Flint lighter but thinner. Very light Fits on a key chain High performance Can be used to run games
