Timetec 256GB Pro Portable USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C/Type-A SSD Read Speed 1000MB/s Solid State Drive Stick for iPhone 15/Android/Tablet/Windows/Mac

I really like this drive. While it's slightly bigger than a traditional USB Flash drive, the capacity and speed make up for it. I think it's cool you can see the hardware inside, and very handy to have both USB-C and USB-A options built-in with no separate adapter required (which would certainly get misplaced).

Excellent

Having this tiny SSD merely a few days I'm not sure how its long term reliability, but this thing is FAST. Consistent 1.2GB of Write and Read, quite impressive. I use it as an extra storage for my Lenovo Legion Go using a USB U-adapter, and use it mainly as sort of a large SD Card to run games from, so I'm not worrying too much if it goes out one day. One thing for sure - this thing is very very hot while written into, if I brush my finger against it out of curiosity, I can almost get a burn. I'm not exaggerating, it's not just "very warm", it's hot.

Very fast for a thumb drive, with speeds that are as-advertised. Heavier than your typical drive and I wish they sold a version without the USB-A connector just so it would be smaller. Nice metal body and feels like a quality piece. Price for what you get is very reasonable...and did I mention it is fast? I don't understand why anyone buys the other SSD that can be selected here, the TP1 with a cord. Half the speed, bigger, and costs about the same. The mini drive is the better deal.

I trust Timetec because I have used their Sodimm memory modules before with no problem
