It gives you up to 500MB/s read and up to 440 MB/s write, and is housed in a space grey graphite aluminum housing for better protection. Both USB-C and USB-A cables have been provided, and the drive has Plug and play functionality so you won’t need to install drivers for a large number of devices; just plug and go! Thanks to the low power consumption of the drive won’t drain too much of your laptop’s battery, and thus is ideal for using on the go.
