OWC 1.0 TB Envoy Pro EX Rugged High-Performance Bus-Powered SSD with Thunderbolt 3 (OWCTB3ENVP10)

Ho scoperto questo disco esterno su Youtube e fidandomi del recensore l'ho voluto acquistare.Ebbene, credo di aver fatto la scelta giusta: questo HDD offre prestazioni davvero notevoli. Lo uso collegato ad un Mac Mini e, utilizzando l'app "Black Magic", ottengo circa 2255 MB/s in scrittura e 2514 MB/s in lettura. Lavoro molto con file di grosse dimensioni (fotografie), con procedure multiple di Win Zip, ecc. e i risultati sono davvero eccellenti.

Transferring megabytes even hundred megabyte files happens so fast that I don’t see the common progress bar on the screen. This thing smokes !! Considering the speed and the price, this is a good deal for a thunderbolt 3 device!The only thing that could be improved to be a longer cable or a cable that could be removed. But that would likely increase the cost. The short cable requires the device to be right next to the computer. Sometimes when I move the computer, the cable connection to the computer is interrupted and I get a warning from my MacBook Pro that the device was improperly disconnected. So, I recommend using this with a computer on a table and not on one’s lap. All this said, I’m very pleased with this device. The transfer speeds are mind blowing!!

I have used this as an external boot drive for my mac. It works flawlessly (so far) even when running Yosemite. Not much else to say really, it a fair price for the capacity and runs as expected.

I used this drive to house my virtual machine that I do development on. I used to run off of a standard USB 3 HDD and the performance was painful. At this point, I can hardly tell that I am on a virtual machine. I wish the cord was detachable.

Although it can be used for general storage I bought this specifically for dedicated backup for my iMac specifically choosing an SSD drive for that purpose for its advantages. Additionally I've used other OWC external drives previously and they've worked well so I specifically went with OWC.
