Pros and cons

According to our External SSD expert
  • Thanks to the USB 3.1 generation 2 connector, 10Gbps allows you to transfer data 2 times faster than USB 3.0.
  • The hardware encryption with password protection protects your drive against data theft.
  • This external SSD is shockproof up to a drop of 2 meters.
  • Files can be transferred immediately, but do you use Time Machine? In that case, the drive should be formatted for Mac first.

Very good SSD for Windows machines.

  • Fast
  • Compact
  • Software not suitable for Mac

I haven't had the external SSD for long. The reason I don't recommend it is that the software and usage are not really suitable for the mac. Of course I can send it back, but now the SSD works well under Time-machine.

A good affordable mobile ssd

  • Fast transfers
  • compact
  • weighs very little
  • not water resistant

For my work as a cinematographer/photographer I often have to load files on the go, and then get to work with those files. previously I used slow mechanical drives that give about 35mb per second of write speed. Because of this I lost a lot of time. Loading a memory card quickly took 40 minutes... editing my images was not possible at all.

Now that I've switched to My Passport SSDs, my memory cards load at least 4x faster, and I can work on the go! you pay a little more, but what you get in return makes it more than worth it.
