fast and light

Beautiful design. Big storage space. FAST. Reliable. Easy.

Goes fast when pluggued at the right place. To acheive high speed you need a USB 3.2 gen 2x2. See the image. Solid case. Well ! for lights lovers , there is a dance of colors.

Super fast. Gets very close to the 1050MB/s as advertised. Great for gaming on the go but must be connect to USB-C. Small and light, pocket size. Many AAA games that require 100+GB installs for storage can benefit from and sometimes demand the speeds of SSDs. The Crucial X9 will meet and satisfy the demand. Nowadays gaming storage libraries easily exceed 1 terabyte or more. The 2TB on the Crucial X9 is plenty of storage for on-the-go gaming, especially Steam libraries since they are easily transferable from one computer to another.

Super easy setup (plug and go). Very fast write speeds, >300MBps actual measured, nice and small, and apparently rugged.



Small and fast external SSD, it has a good price, too. About 20-30 bucks cheaper than the 1TB Sandisk eSSD (this one feels a bit sturdier, too.)

Price Speed

I use the drive for running the Raspberry PI4 and it is faster than the micro chip. Pretty much plug and play and easy to load the OS from my main system.

Small, fast, reliable product

I got a great deal on this because it was on sale. I needed big portable storage. I had another 2TB thumb drive, but when my laptop fell it nearly broke off the plug. I'd been using an extender with multiple sockets to avoid that, but this was way better. The yellow loop comes off, and then one end goes in the drive and the other in the USB-C port. Connections are firm. It feels extremely durable--metal casing and no projecting or moving parts to break or wear out. I feel like I could drive over it and it would still be OK. I can't speak technically about speed, but it's plenty fast for me. The little light at the end is always flashing colors while it's plugged in!



I did a full Windows 11 backup and noticed it was a little warmer than most SSDs but it was pretty fast.. If it lasts then I'll be a happy buyer.



I got this to backup my android phone. It works great. It is super fast and easy. My wife had 4000+ pics on her cell. This thing backed them up with ease. I had to change microSD card. Flawless. Worth every penny.

Much faster than a mechanical hard drive. Small footprint. No external power needed. Good construction. Price per MB has really come down in recent years.
