Brilliant !!
The fastest drive I have ever used ! And the space of 4TB is ample to work out of and store at the same time ! Just brilliant!

Once there's more than 1.5 TB on the Drive it slows to a trickle... Has nothing to do with thermal, but for some reason on multiple computers and different versions of OS it slows to 50mbps write speed.

UPDATE I reformatted the drive as APFS encrypted and saw ~4.8% drop in write speed to 2439-2446 MB/s. Read stayed in the low 2500s. Still blazing and now more secure. I also picked up a Maxonar Thunderbolt 4 half-meter cable for something a little longer. The included cable is labeled as Thunderbolt 3. There is no noticeable speed difference between them. ORIGINAL REVIEW I got the 4TB non-TLC with the 3k speed and it's delivering about 3x the write and 4x the read speed of my Samsung T7 of the same capacity, which is basically a USB 3.2 speed drive, not Thunderbolt. This is about 4 ounces heavier than the T7, with a solid feeling metal case vs. the T7's rubberized case,. It's a thicc little drive that's a smidger taller, wider, and thicker than the T7. I tested it against the internal drive in a 2 month old MacBook Pro M3 (16") and a 3-year-old desktop PC gaming rig. While it got blown out of the water by the MBP's internal drive which was 2-3x faster in each measure, it was 80% as fast on write and almost double on read compared to the desktop with NVME. When you see people claiming they sped up an old, slow machine by using some variant of this as a boot drive, I'd bet they're telling the truth. It's fast enough to power a number of low-to-mid-range laptops or even desktops if they have USB 4 or Thunderbolt 4. Obviously I just picked this up and I'm in a honeymoon phase. We'll have to see how durable both the drive and its speeds are. But I am predicting I am not going to have storage anxiety with my MBP for a while.

La velocidad de los discos thunderbolt es impresionante y despues de 1 año de uso considero que es un buen disco portatil. La calidad de materiales es 10/10 y aunque es para windows y mac, yo lo formatie para usarlo solo en mac.

the device looks solid. i immediately formatted to encrypted apfs. ran a amorphous diskmark and reads go up to 2.7GB but writes are around 1.7GB only. not sure if that's due to encryption.
