Vansuny500GB Portable External SSD, USB 3.1 Gen2 450MB/s High-Speed Data Transfer, Metal USB C Mini Portable External Solid State Drive for PC, Laptop, Phones and More

This thing works so well that I bought another. It’s small, sleek and offers a lot of additional storage space. Got these for our MacBook Airs and worked without any issues. Great value for the price!

The media could not be loaded. WOW!! These SSDs are SOOOOO COOOOL, I purchased three 500 Gig drives and one 1TB drive for everyday backups! I wanted a device to EXCLUSIVELY keep an individual "CLONE" of each of my two PC's drives, with NO additional backups allowed on either one! They worked GREAT right out of the box!!!When you need to replace EVERYTHING to EXACTLY the way it was (partitions, OS, hidden files, everything!), THESE MIGHTY MOUSE SSDs ARE P-E-R-F-E-C-T! ... along with some cloning software. Never have to worry EVER again about computer failures, theft, or damage! Plus, these SSDs can be easily hidden and/or stored offsite. Video is backing up a PC to this 1TB SSD ... max write is 550 MB/Second, faster with compression! (see video).

Speedy little drive for a cheap little 500gb external USB based drive. Would work great for a laptop as it only uses about 1 watt when I was testing it during benchmarking. Doesn't get too hot at around 92* so that's always a plus.Haven't had any read/write errors out of it at all.It's sturdy with it's all metal frame so that's a bonus as well. comes with a USB A>C cable as well as an adaptor so it will work with USB C on both ends. a little carrying pouch. Plus it's has a full metal enclosure.Would work great for a little game/media drive on a laptop or even on a phone if needed.

I couldn't get it to top 250MB per second in test environment, real transfer rate was closer to 230MB /s which is still absurdly fast for a USB device. In NTFS you get 238.45GB, it shows up as a JMicron Tech SCSI Disk Device.Inside you will find a custom printed board, the USB-C connector has 4 well soldered joints holding it down.The JMS901 UFS-USB Bridge Controller is made by JMicron.The memory inside is interesting. The San Disk SDINDDH4-256G 256G-byte Embedded iNAND UFS 2.1 aka MC EU311, according to Western Digital whitepapers it is made as top of line flagship cellphone memory with a unit cost of $10 this company isn't getting rich off of these.Due to the unique nature of this device it hates being formatted as WBFS, it struggled with FAT32. It works fine and dandy as exFAT and NTFS though.

I have only had the drive for about a week, and windows says that "this drive needs to eb formatted before you can use it." I had some important things on that drive, but all can be recovered from other drives(this one just consolidated all of them) and from the cloud. Never buying from some sketchy company like VANSUNY again. I also saw that the box of a JOIOT internal SATA SSD looked exactly the same as this box, which leads me to think that this is one of those times when a company makes multiple brands(i needed the SATA SSD for a project that failed, not because of the SSD) and has each selling the same products, just so only 1 brand at a time gets a bad rep instead of the whole company. Every free file recovery service i use can either can not find the files, or lock most of the files on the drive behind a paywall.

Easy to transfer videos from my phone to my iPad

The hard drive works great! I have an HP all in one in the kitchen. It's great as it saves space and can get my recipes, etc. Instead of opening it up to put in internal, I bought this hard drive and installed Windows 11 on the external drive. The computer performance is much much much better. Hard drive performs perfectly. Definitely recommended.

Its reliable for a couple of hours. It keeps disconnecting and reconnecting and I have to physically disconnect and connect again. not the best buy okay for the price. very small and fast at least
