US201 Portable External USSD

I tested this with a fairly large file a several smaller files and it seemed a big sluggish with transferring via USB-C, which should have been quicker. I like that the casing that protects the USB ends are metal so it adds a little more protection but it does make it a bit heavier than a normal flash drive. I also think its ugly but that is just my opinion on that.

(This review is for the KingSpec MemoStone 256GB External USB-C SSD.)This is a fast, well-designed, reasonably-priced, external SSD for computers, tablets, and phones.Making it resemble a game controller may appeal to some; I like the metal case that gives it a sturdy feel and also protects the Type A and C USB connectors. There is a slight detent in the USB-C end cover that helps keep it closed. On the USB-A end, a magnet is used instead of a detent, for some reason. A lanyard hole can be found on the blue (USB-C) end cover.A CrystalDisk speed chart is attached.The drive does get hot during use, but not unreasonably so.

For a switch themed thumb drive, this performs well enough for daily tasks and just looks cool doing it. The fact that it includes USB-C and USB-A makes it very versatile for connecting to any device, basically. The casing it made of metal, so it feels more durable than some of the throwaway plastic ones Ive had before.Overall I think this is a good buy !

This drive is so fast it made my old hard drive cry. I plugged it in, and files flew like they were escaping a burning building; basically warp speed for spreadsheets and cat videos. The dual USB-A/C setup means it plays nice with everything from my dusty laptop to my fancy phone, and the metal casing feels like it could survive a drop from orbit. If storage had a superhero, this would be its cape.
