Timetec 1TB Portable External SSD USB3.2 Gen2 Type C Up to 550MB/s Ultra-Light Aluminum Mini External Solid State Drive with USB C to A Cable/USB A to C Adapter for Desktops/Laptop/Mac/Mobile - Black

Overall happy with this SSD, its going to be perfect for work travel! R/W speeds are good as well.

This item works as described. Made a big difference on my 64 gb MacBook Air 2012.

Easily installed this in a MacBook Air. Works fine so far.

This SSD was used to replace my old PCs failing Hard Drive, and the upgrade is noticeably faster. For the past couple of months, its been holding up well and I havent had any issues with it. The SSD does a read and improves the load times of my programs, which is to be expected from going from an HD to an SSD. It wasnt hard to use or too hard to replace in the computer, think the hardest part was installing windows on the SSD and waiting for the process to complete. 256GB as a whole computer memory is real bare bones, but I dont usually keep too many games or videos on my older PC. The memory capacity is more suited for an office use computer or sheerly just an extra drive for storage. Its not to say that you cant do much with the 256GB, for you would have to be mindful of your memory usage; especially if youre an avid gamer or video editor. Overall, this SSD works and runs well. If you need a quick replacement for a failing drive or just need a pinch of extra memory, this SSD will do you good.

Looks original, working well.

Works really well and its not especially expensive, but it does the same job as a much smaller thumb drive.

it works well very tiny and ultra fast

We picked up a mini PC for our homeschooled kids. They are young and don’t need much. They may be on the internet and using office for school work. Yet the PC didn’t come with much storage so I picked this SSD up to give them a little more. So far so good. It’s fast, but it’s also basically empty. We’ll see how long it lasts. For the low cost it worth it to take a flyer. Hope that helps.

My macbook is brand new now!

First thing I noticed when removing this drive from its box, was the fact it was super light, which is usually one big red flag. But I gave it a chance and tested it anyway. It showed up on Windows 11 with the correct size being reported (1TB). However, when I started copying data to the drive, thats where the fun started. Constant disconnections, either using its own USB-C to USB cable or with its included USB-C adapter. No matter which port on my (brand new gen 3) laptop I used, the drive disconnected. To make the test fair (you never know, maybe my brand new laptop needed some new drivers or something), I also tested it on my 2 year old desktop computer. Same results. I wasnt even able to run a write/read speed test, as the drive disconnected before the test completed. Also, brand new out of the box, it already showed some signs of being used, with data already being transferred to it, and some power on count registered too. I suppose I got a return from someone else who also experienced the same issue with this drive I did. On top of that, the data I managed to transfer to this drive before it disconnect was corrupted and thus unreadable. Drive returned right away. Be safe and stick to known brand instead.
