BUFFALO External SSD 1TB - Up to 600MB/s - USB-C - USB-A - USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Compatible with PS4 / PS5 / Windows/Mac) - External Solid State Drive Stick - ‎‎SSD-PUT1.0U3B

I mainly use it for transferring files from PS5 to PC and it works perfectly. Extremely fast transfer speed on both ends. The Type C connector is also an amazing option. The drive also works as an extended storage for the PS5. Highly recommend. 10/10

I have purchases many high cost thumb-flash drives and this one ranks as best.

Used for backing up photos from phones to computer. Great for this purpose and good experience from seller.

Muy rápido a buen precio

Easy to use and didnt expact the speed on transferring documents, surveillance videos etc to be processed quick.

While it has USB flash drive form factor, its really an SSD. So, for an SSD, its quite slow in todays standards. As you can tell from my CrystalMarkDisk benchmark tests, sequential read/write is only 450/215 MB/s. Testing with the included USB-C adapter, it goes up to 600/370 MB/s. With that said, I dont think theres another SSD with a built-in, retractable USB-A interface that is this small AND performs this well for a sustained period of time. The Kingston DataTraveler Max does have higher speeds, but it throttles heavily after 5-20 seconds, down to less than 50 MB/s, so its not in the same league as this Buffalo. Like everyone has already mentioned, the build is very flimsy. Its all lightweight plastic and sounds very hollow when you tap it with your fingernail. Also, Buffalos use of stickers makes the drive feel like a cheap knock-off. They could have at least made sure the stickers were aligned properly (see photo). This thing just screams cheap, cheap, cheap. I just hope this drive doesnt die on me in a few months.

So Im starting to understand a little bit better the value of getting an SSD even if it is an external one. The power requirements for mechanical driver pretty much heart wrenching especially when youre transferring drive to drive . This little puppy is very smooth, and Im really glad for it. I still have a say it a hard drive in the USB enclosure and that still goes fast but if I put any more than that drive on a USB hub it tends to disconnect randomly. This SSD is much better.

Let me start by saying that for the price I paid, I was whole heartedly expecting this thing to be horrible, but I was wrong. I am so glad I gave this seemingly no name brand a try, as this is better than 98% of the USB drives available by known brand names. I cringed when I plugged it into my computer not knowing what to expect, and once recognized, drivers installed and it opened a new window I was delighted to find it has a full usable 1.81TB of storage space (in one contiguous block). I then proceeded to back up all of my data between 9 of my computers, and the slowest data write speed was 26MBPS, however it was on an old laptop computer that was dying, and I was barley able to boot it into safe mode to recover data; on my hp elite desk mini, I plugged it into a USB 3.0 port and started downloading data, about 500 GB of data and it only took about 3 min to transfer, it peaked at .99GBPS but averaged 600MBPS. BLOWN AWAY! HIGH QUALITY! GO BUFFALO! If your reading this review and still questioning if you should buy this because of the brand name, let me give you some good advice, coming from the IT guy for a company. BUY IT YOU GOOF! In my opinion this is the best value for USB storage on amazon.
